(request moved to bottom by clerk) @LRTeam Wiki: Wikipedia requires that accounts are used by one person, not by a group, team, or company. If you want to edit as a team, each team member should have their own account. If you are editing under the same IP address, consider using the {{User shared IP address}} template on each of your userpages so a Checkuser doesn't suspect illegitimate sockpuppetry. --k6ka (talk | contribs) 14:46, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: He's been through two requests at CHU/U already and KillerPenguin's been out of it for what, nearly two months? Is it not worth just letting it happen?

I'm not taking offense as to TempUName wanting a similar name as I, but what might be somewhat contentious is the "real" part. To some, it might give the illusion that I'm a sock/impersonator of somebody. Maybe you should change it to something else that would not warrant confusion? Oh, and in case you were wondering, I was on an editing hiatus for the past month; I was quite busy. Thekillerpenguin (talk) 06:27, 5 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

All right.  Not done: too similar to another user's username, particularly given the other user's valid objection to the proposed name. Please choose another name, one that does not imply authority or legitimacy at the expense of another user. Writ Keeper ⚇♔

@Xeno: Admins (Daniel Case in particular) have told me that a warning for a COI username is appropriate if they do not immediately edit. I usually wait a few days. Nothing on WP:BADNAME or {{uw-username}} or {{uw-coi-username}} say the user must edit before receiving a warning. This is an "unambiguously problematic" name as it's a WP:GROUPNAME. EvergreenFir (talk) 17:15, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Also, except in extreme cases, it is probably not worth taking action unless the user has made at least one recent edit." –xenotalk 17:20, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
For extreme cases, you report to UAA. I'll continue to template blatant violations. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:03, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@EvergreenFir: This was not an extreme case; templating/reporting uw-coi-usernames who have never edited is a waste of administrative and bureaucratic resources. –xenotalk 18:13, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
xeno Which is why I didn't report it to WP:UAA. You at taking one part of WP:BADNAME as blanket policy. I "considered leaving well alone" and decided against it. The name is a blatant violation. So I want with "Talk to the user". I did nothing wrong and am getting quite annoyed at the varying interpretations of a rather clear policy. I've learned to not report editless names to WP:UAA unless they are patently offensive. Now you're telling me to not template clear violations unless they edit? I think I'll follow the guidelines instead. It's been working well for a few months now. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:21, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. Please don't template users who have never edited. It's unnecessary and a waste of everyone's time (including yours). –xenotalk 18:22, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
How the hell is asking a clear violation to change their name a waste of time and resources? I my mind, it'd help for the user to get off on the right foot before editing, not jump on them after their first few attempts. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:26, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'll follow what the guidelines say, which include templating, not your warped interpretation. If you want me to change, fix the guidelines. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:26, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The guideline says to leave them alone if they've never edited. It's unnecessary, bitey, and a waste of everyone's time. –xenotalk 18:31, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The guidelines suggest that as one course of action among many. Thanks for your input, but no. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:33, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for wasting bureaucratic resources asking users who have never edited to change their name. –xenotalk 18:35, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome. Now if you want to actually fix something, stop griping at me and spend your efforts changing broken rules. I'm not the problem, the guidelines are. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:37, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The guideline is not broken, you're just ignoring the paramount tenet of the guideline: leave users alone who have not edited. This is why it is the very first piece of guidance; it's a hierarchy and you're ignoring the very first piece of the workflow. –xenotalk 18:39, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
