This page is for requesting a review of a username under the Username Policy.

A request here can only be opened under the following circumstances:

  • Following a request sent to stewards@miraheze.org to appeal a lock under the Username Policy.
  • By a Steward to determine appropriate action if they are unsure how to proceed.

Notes:

The closure of a request on this noticeboard may only be appealed to the Stewards.

Appeal by Dying[edit | edit source]

Appeal accepted. This is an edge case situation where the appellant appears to be a good faith user not obviously using their name in bad faith. -- Void Whispers 17:36, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Opening Steward: N/A appealed by user
  • Appealing User: Special:CentralAuth/Dying
  • Comments: Dyingisfunny is my default handle, I've been using it for a decade+. I wasn't trying to be edgy or a troll, just used it out of habit without realizing this place has stricter rules than others. I just had a new wiki approved but my group can't put our stuff on it because the only registered bureaucrat for it is Dyingisfunny, so please if you can't unlock that account then at least transfer all of the powers to this new account I'm using right now for appealing, https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Dying — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dying (talk • contribs)
@Dying and Dyingisfunny: I've notified the actioning Global Sysop, @Reception123:, and they will respond in kind to your good-faith appeal when they are no longer mobile. Please do not use this Dying account other than on this page for the purposes of your appeal. Dmehus (talk) 14:29, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
@Dying and Dyingisfunny: You may be interested to note that RfC/U is considered your first appeal avenue after e-mailing stewards@miraheze.org. So, you might wish to consider e-mailing this request, which appears to be good-faith, to stewards, and see what they say. You may well not need to appeal to either the community or the CoCC.
