[edit]Hello, Dixiepridetowing, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits did not conform to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may have been removed.

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Dixiepridetowing", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because You cannot have a username that is a company name. Wikipedia accounts are for individuals only.. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 23:43, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
- What possible difference does why you chose your user name make to the issue that it is not a permissable username? If you can't wrap your head around simple logic like that, I cannot see how you will ever be able to contribute here successfully. This isn't Facebook.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.
Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page.
You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text
{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page. 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.
Thank you. S Philbrick(Talk) 14:36, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
