You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

That block message above is extremely unhelpful. You're indefinitely blocked because of your username; please use {{unblock-un|<new username>|<reason>}} to contest this block. —Jeremy v^_^v ^Bori! 01:07, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Indeed; this ↓ is what the block message should have looked like, based on the reason given in the block log. However, there is a degree of disruption involved in continuing an edit war; I'd also be interested to know what your relationship is with the accounts User:KxDoom and User:FKAtwigs... All in all, I think there is more to address here than just the username. Yunshui ^雲_水 10:50, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, Witchcum, 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}} 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 think 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.

In fact, based on the suspicious activity at Crystal Castles (band), I ran a checkuser investigation - you can now consider this a CU block. Yunshui ^雲_水 10:53, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

i apologize but i change usernames only because of forgotten usernames and/or passwords. it's not sockpuppetry. if other users believe crystal castles are a "witch house" band it's because crystal castles are a major worldwide influence on witch house music. as you can see other users are editing the page to include this genre, it's not just me. Andrzejbanas is a vandal (trying to remove witch house for unknown reason) and all i was doing was undoing his removal of "witch house" which many users believe fit the band, again they are true users who i am not connected to who also think the genre is associated with this band. i promise i'll make note of the username and password if you unblock me and i also don't want to be block the entire house because i undid someone's absurd removal of a genre. thanks

Decline reason:

Checkuser verified abuser of multiple accounts. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 13:31, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
