- I respectfully disagree that the requested name is promotional (see also Special:ListUsers/Dr.). That being said, Abz1947/DR.ANAND: I would suggest you simply abandon this account and create the account with the name you would like, as you have made no other edits beyond this request. –xeno 15:47, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

- Ah, that does shed more light on the matter. Nonetheless, I think that he may still adopt the username as long as he now understands that he may not use Misplaced Pages for self-promotion and future article creations meet our inclusion criteria for biographies. –xeno 16:13, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

{{not done}}you new choice is also problematic. I don't think dropping the ".inc" addresses the concern that the name is promotional. 23:47, 13 February 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by WJBscribe (talk • contribs)- I would be inclined to grant this one because 1) user has not been trying to promote that site (as far as I can tell, there is a single permissible link on their user page) and 2) user has been using the name for the better part of 3 years. There are many users who have websites at web prefixes that match their user name. –xeno 14:43, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
