April 2022 edit

 
Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because your username, Galtgroup, does not meet our username policy. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have selected a new username that meets the username policy guidelines, which are summarized below.
Per the username policy, a username should represent an individual and should not: represent a group or organization; be promotional; be misleading (such as indicating possession of special user rights or being a "Bot" account (unless approved for such purposes)); be offensive or otherwise disruptive. However, a username that contains the name of a organization and also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87" is allowed, though, among others, the guidance on conflict of interest and the policy of paid-contribution disclosure are relevant.
You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our username policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you wish for your existing contributions to carry over under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
  1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" from their talk page.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a change of name request.
  3. Your requested new username cannot already be in use. Therefore, please check the list here to see if a name is taken prior to requesting a change of name.
Appeals: If, after reading the guide to appealing blocks you believe you were blocked in error, then you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice.

Ok just change it to galtguy. This is the only way I understand I can get my username changed. I absolutely do not understand any {{}}\\#}} instructions and descriptions of ways to do things on Wikipedia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Galtgroup (talkcontribs) 16:28, 9 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
User:Galtguy is taken. Also, always remember to post at the bottom of the talk page or discussion you're posting in, and don't forget to sign your posts. Thanks - wolf 17:30, 20 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
So I’ve managed to change my username to galt2112 And I’m still blocked. Is this just forever then? Galt2112 (talk) 16:53, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Ask the blocking admin (pinging Cullen328), they should be able to sort this out. (Also, see WP:INDENT.) - wolf 17:50, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Galt2112, I have unblocked your account. Cullen328 (talk) 18:05, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
