Requested username:

Decline reason:

DI'm sorry, but I cannot unblock you at this time as this is a sockpuppetry and/or checkuser block. Check users have access to technical and personally identifying information they may not disclose openly on Wikipedia. Please read and heed the relevant sections of the WP:GAB. If this is not your original account, you will need to appeal at your original account.   Dlohcierekim (talk) 02:16, 20 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, MoreWalzBullshit, 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) and continue editing.
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 and create the account yourself. 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}} below. 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 "Email 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 think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Alexf(talk) 22:50, 14 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I would like to change my name to MoreWalzBullcrap. Will I need to create a new account, or can this name be edited?

Decline reason:

Looks to me like this is a VOA with an agenda. Hard pass from me on the rename. Yunshui  07:38, 15 July 2019 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

You can just create a new account, if you are unconcerned with your edit history. If you want to keep your edit history, we can do a rename. Please indicate which you want. Would it be possible for you to choose a name that doesn't reference a bodily waste product? 331dot (talk) 00:23, 15 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

I have renamed you. Given your history of vandalism, I'm unwilling to unblock you, but another admin will review your request. --Yamla (talk) 12:49, 15 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

  You are suspected of sock puppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/{{{1}}}]]. There is currently an investigation. Eni vak (speak) 23:09, 10 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
