Request reason:
This username does not deceptively portray me as representing the Communist Party or any other such political organization because it is humorous. I believe it is perfectly obvious that the name is a pun – a combination of "Communist Party" and "party van." I would much like to keep this username, as it makes me giggle whenever I see it. I do not believe other users would mistake me as representative of the political movement. [communist party van] (talk) 03:40, 20 March 2015 (UTC+0)
Accept reason:
Hi Communist Party Van. Sorry I have never heard the expression "party van" (we don't have them here in Canada) and assumed "van" referred to the city of Vancouver. Unblock request accepted with my apologies. Diannaa (talk) 14:34, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks Diannaa! It's okay; it's an American expression, I suppose. [communist party van] (talk)

- I agree this user should be unblocked; I don't think this name represents any particular group. ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 07:18, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
