I would like to change my username to something more neutral, such as "MetaEditor", to ensure compliance with Wikipedia’s policies. My goal is to contribute to the community in a neutral and non-promotional manner, and I have no intention of editing articles related to Meta Dram or any other topics where I have a conflict of interest.
I will now focus on contributing to Wikipedia in areas where I do not have a conflict, ensuring all edits are made with a neutral point of view and in line with Wikipedia's guidelines. I also understand the importance of not using my account for promotional purposes, and I am committed to adhering to Wikipedia’s standards. Metadram01383668886 (talk) 13:15, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

::Comment – I was the editor who suggested that a username change is needed. Looking at the 60 edits that the user has as their contributions, I see that they are mostly interested in Auckland topics, with broader New Zealand topics a secondary interest. None of the edits have been IT-related. Hence, I cannot spot anything that raises concerns regarding the proposed username. Schwede66 22:01, 10 April 2025 (UTC)
::Thanks @Schwede66. Mostly New Zealand-based topics. I'm confused how the requested name could be promotional, unless someone were to begin a company that sold named unnamed computer monitors.
