My username

edit

I understand why the article could not be accepted. My username is actually older than the sketch comedy group with the same name. I used to have all of my usernames Calling All Tortoises, so I decided to name the sketch comedy group that, too. If anything, the sketch comedy group is violating the policy, by stealing MY username. It's as if John Smith was someone's username, and a company named John Smith was created later and got super popular, and the original John Smith got blamed for stealing the name.
