Not making any threats of legal action. No desire for that at all. But I was offended by the admin user calling me "evasive" which I never was in anyway whatsoever; something quite lacking in civility since he had no evidence for that. I just want to get my full name off of this account. I think Wikipedia itself recommends that full names not be used in the account. Per your suggestion I followed the dispute resolution link and recommendation for removing personal info, found a form and submitted it. I cleared the content that might could be misconstrued as a legal threat. Thomasicheek ( talk) 16:38, 15 July 2024 (UTC) reply
dispute resolution seems to have not been accepted. Thomasicheek ( talk) 20:31, 15 July 2024 (UTC) reply
If you're blocked, you can't edit other pages. That's probably why the form didn't work. Regardless, this isn't a content dispute, so that wouldn't be the appropriate venue. jlwoodwa ( talk) 21:29, 19 July 2024 (UTC) reply
Thanks for info. So what are my next steps to get unblocked? I need to be unblocked to get my full name off of this account. Thomasicheek ( talk) 14:55, 23 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Request reason:

Unblock request part 2: I have removed the offending page submission and I want to fully comply with all policies. I had no intention of spamming and will not in the future. What else needs to be done? This was a one time event. As you can see I have no history of contributions or any sort of "spamming"

Decline reason:

duplicate request. 331dot ( talk) 09:57, 30 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Request reason:

Please unblock. I need to get my fullname off this site by vanishing or changing username. I have no contributions and never want to participate again. My attempt to write an article was honest non-evasive and not an attempt at spam. But going forward I have no desire to contribute. Please Unblock so I can get my full name off this site. Thank you. Also, I am not a Wikipedia experienced user and I made 2 initial mistakes. 1) I used my full name as my username. This was an attempt to be transparent but I now realize it was a mistake and that I could be targeted for harassment per documentation found on this site. 2) I tried to write an article about my culturally significant Athens GA band from the 1980's. I was accused of being an evasive spammer by an admin user. Otherwise it was absolutely not the case nor the intention of the Article. This band has only done 1 gig since the 90s, which was at a charity event. I have no desire to re-attempt to create this article or any other article after this horrible experience. I have no published contributions. My main goal at this point is to just get my full name out of the username for this account. Please help! Thank You. If you can't help please tell me why and what further steps I can take.

Decline reason:

You do have contributions(a "contribution" is any edit to any type of page). Accounts are not unblocked to vanish. Vanishing is usually only available to accounts in good standing(i.e. not blocked). However, if you have immediate threats to your safety or otherwise think you will be the target of harassment, please see WP:VANISH for how you can request a courtesy vanishing. 331dot ( talk) 10:11, 30 July 2024 (UTC) reply
