Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Dandypantsfilms", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or have the appearance of shared use. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.

Hi. I put in a request for a name change. Thank you for the advisement.Dandypantsfilms (talk) 15:10, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, Dandypantsfilms, does not meet our username policy.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).

A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account. 

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
3. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.  Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 00:03, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Since you have disclosed another account in OTRS, it best to only use that account.  Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 00:05, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. If I had a choice in the matter, I would like to use this account and delete the other account. I have not yet been given the option to do so and I feel it is best to allow several moderators/editors to make the decision or I will appeal. Thank you.Dandypantsfilms (talk) 00:51, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Swap block for alternative account.  Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 19:52, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
