User talk:Cockgoblin

Hello, Cockgoblin.... welcome to Wikipedia. Just to give you a heads-up, some people might consider your choice of username to be offensive, so don't be surprised if you get some flak for it. You might want to read Wikipedia:No offensive usernames and the associated discussion. But, good to have you here, hope to see more great edits! Graft

I enjoy the name User_talk:hfastedge

The name can also be intepreted, as a goblin with something similar to the male part of the hen, nothing vulgar in that (other than it sounds pretty evil!) Firebirth

It can also be interpreted as Cockgob(b)lin', or a semi-clever pseudonym for user:cumguzzler. --Koyaanis Qatsi

Uh huh... sure. And it may mean this person likes male poultry. whatever. freedom to have maximum shock value from a wiki handle seems to be most important to a guzzler who crucified christ after smoking his pole BF

My concern about your username (Cockgoblin)[edit]

Hello, Cockgoblin, and thank you for contributing to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:

If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as asking for a "third opinion", or requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Admins usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.

Let me reassure you that my writing here means I don't think your username is grossly, blatantly, or obviously inappropriate; such names get reported straight to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism (WP:AIV), or blocked on sight. This is more a case where opinions might differ, and it would be good to reach some consensus — either here or at WP:RFC/NAME. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you again! Kesac 01:32, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Username[edit]

Oh my God, what's wrong with you guys? You see vulgarity in anything! There's nothing wrong with "Cockgoblin", a cock is a male chicken. Let up on it, folks. Remember, Wikipedia is a place for everyone, and being the fascist username police isn't exactly constructive to producing a good encyclopedia. Keep that in mind before you complain about another username with the word "cock" in it. Thanks, 71.231.93.28 (talk) 07:35, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
