I also don't think the cat is particularly relevant, but it simply doesn't fit other sections like religious views or family. Arguably, maybe the cat is a family member, but I think it's less of a problem to have a marginal sections than to use such debatable & potentially misleading language. -- Tarnoob ( talk) 14:31, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Request reason:
Can someone please answer a question I have asked before? Why am I being blocked for having a username that is just a fan name for a rugby team. I am not representing any corporation, group or any other weirdo thing and have had it for over 7 years with no issues. An actual answer would be helpful. I have never vandalised a page. I hardly ever edit them. Just a reason. Thanks TheMightyAllBlacks ( talk) 22:56, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
Decline reason:
As noted, this is only a username block. No one has said you committed vandalism. To answer you, you were given a clear answer above. Your username suggests that this account is associated with the team- and even if it somehow wasn't, it suggests a group of people("Blacks"). You probably got away with it this long because you are an irregular contributor(which is fine, just saying) and it wasn't noticed. The username policy when you created your account is pretty much as it is now, not allowing such usernames. If you want to indicate your status as a fan of the team, you should have a username like "AllBlacksFan" or "FanOfAllBlacksTeam" or something like that. Please propose a new username. 331dot ( talk) 23:04, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
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.

Edit: And it hasn't escaped my notice that it only happened after I edited a Jacinda Ardern article, by someone who is obviously biased towards her, given their editing history. TheMightyAllBlacks ( talk) 22:56, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your time and consideration. I trust any other users that reference Man united or the Yankees or Liverpool, or England rose, or res socks will be given as equal treatment -- TheMightyAllBlacks ( talk) 00:19, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
Apologies for that last comment. It was churlish. How do I change it to "AllBlackDomination"?
OK. Will try to be more sensitive to other countries stupid irrational race issues, which are stupidly dumb and racist.
your new GreatestRugbyTheAllBlacks
Is that woke enough?

Request reason:
My Apologies. I suggested a new user name, then realised it might be as bad as others seem to see it as my current. Rather than add a new one I edited it. Not sure if this is bad or not. Basically can I just have "GreatestRugbyTheAllBlacks" and get on with life, as am getting a bit tired of other countries race issues? Thanks Edit: And I am not putting "fan", because I am not 12 years old

He's correct that he's used this for years without complaint. Since we usually get any clearly over-the-line names before they even edit, the longevity with which the community has permitted it suggests that laches estoppel applies to any block, i.e., we've lost our chance to complain.
It's the widely-used nickname for New Zealand's national men's rugby team. No problem there. I've never been there, and I know this.
And there are other similar usernames. Looking around I found unblocked (if unused) usernames like New York Yankees Forever and HabsMTL.
So, per those, I suggest to this user that he need only depluralize his name, perhaps to something like TheMightyAllBlacksNZ? If you're willing to do that I suggest that any admin should unblock once the change goes through. Daniel Case ( talk) 02:35, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
The only reason I thought it was a race thing was this comment above
" Your username suggests that this account is associated with the team- and even if it somehow wasn't, it suggests a group of people("Blacks")"
I apologise if I got the wrong end of the stick.
I am cool with having NZ added to the end, but am unsure how to change.
Will do a request -- TheMightyAllBlacks ( talk) 08:03, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
That must suck man. I actually feel for you. I can't imagine living in a country where colour means people and not just a colour :(

Accept reason:
Thanks heaps mate, and have a good weekend.
Actually no.
I am not having that. Was cool for a bit. But thought about it. Our national football team is called the "all whites" (Again uniform colour). Our Female rugby team is called the "Black Ferns". Our cricket team is called the "Black caps". It basically goes on and on with black and white depending on sports code.
I am ok and thank you for that. But does this mean any other kiwi referencing the others can't?
