Wikipedia:Usernames for administrator attention

Usernames for administrator attention

This page is intended for reports of usernames that are blatant and serious violations of the username policy requiring an immediate block. Reports will be assessed in accordance with the username policy, the UAA instructions, and the following bullet points. Please ensure you are familiar with the assessment criteria before making a report.

1. Except in the instance of an egregious name violation, please do not report accounts with no edits or those who have not edited in the preceding 2 weeks.
2. Real names are permitted, except when the editor implies they are someone other than themselves, such as impersonating a notable living person.
3. Promotional names require evidence to be blocked. Do not report a username merely because it "appears" promotional.
4. For libellous usernames or usernames that contain another editor's nonpublic personal information, please contact an oversighter and do not report it here.
5. Discuss less-serious violations with the user on their talk page so that they can rename or abandon their account in good faith. Templates such as {{Uw-username}} or {{Uw-coi-username}} may be used. If, after discussion with a user, the problem still seems unresolved, a username request for comment may be in order.
6. Do not leave a username warning on a user's talk page and also immediately report them here. Do one or the other, and not both simultaneously.
7. Patrollers are asked to remove reports that have been declined, are bot-reported false positives or are otherwise non-blatant or stale reports.

You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

Note: Patrollers may wish to monitor usernames flagged by filters 54, 148 and 149; private filters 102, 354, 499, 579; and this recent changes filter tag.

  • This one feels borderline to me because of the "j" at the end. Perhaps they work for or with EUKI, but the "j" makes it perhaps fall into the "j at EUKI" category, at least for me. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:47, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

  Not a violation of the username policy. Real names are permitted except when they imply that the editor is a specific living person they are not. Consider filing a report at the conflict of interest noticeboard. They haven't yet edited anything that implies they are the famous person or that they are representing him. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 19:25, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

  Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Usernames which only imply shared use are not serious enough to warrant being blocked immediately. And I'm also not seeing where this one "implies shared use". ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:48, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

  Nihonjoe, "The meow cafe dumfries" appears to be the name of a company or group, which would be a promotional and shared use username, right? Also, if UAA isn't for usernames that only imply shared use, then maybe Twinkle should be changed as one of the options is "Username that implies shared use". --Ferien (talk) 06:11, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
