- Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia! I myself am a somewhat new wikipedian and I wanted to inform you that usernames with the name "bot" in them is deemed misleading by this website. I recommend changing your username a bit before someone reports you which would be highly inconvenient for you. Here's a link to the username log for new members where it lists some guidelines for invalid usernames https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/newusers&offset=&limit=100&type=newusers&user=

editYour account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, WIKIBOT4.0, contains the suffix "-bot", which is generally reserved for authorized bot accounts. 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:
- 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. - At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
- 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.
- Adding
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. — JJMC89 (T·C) 18:43, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
