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. 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. Real names are permitted, except when the editor implies they are someone other than themselves, such as impersonating a notable living person. Promotional names require evidence to be blocked. Do not report a username merely because it "appears" promotional. For libellous usernames or usernames that contain another editor's nonpublic personal information, please contact an oversighter and do not report it here. 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. 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. 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.

• Leedam group (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username that implies shared use. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 11:44, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

@Rubbish computer: Can you provide evidence this is a real organization, though? I don't see anything in their edits that gives me alarm? ceranthor 16:17, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

@Ceranthor: I found this https://www.google.com/search?q=leedom+group&oq=leedam+gr&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0.4986j0j4&client=ms-android-samsung&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#lkt=overview&trex=m_t:lcl_akp,rc_f:nav,rc_ludocids:5793438355674986289,rc_q:Leedom%2520Group,ru_q:Leedom%2520Group but admittedly it's a slightly different spelling. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 16:26, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

The different spelling gives me pause. ceranthor 16:27, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment: Doesn’t seem blatant nor obvious from edits and as such not for this board. May I suggest discuss with the user using the template to do so (see point number 3 in the header of this page). NJA | talk 18:07, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

• YeetusFeetusSelfDeletes (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as an offensive and disruptive username. Huntthetroll (talk) 00:26, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
• Flanimals (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Has the same name as the article on the book series Flanimals. It seems unlikely that this person has any connection to the series, but the name can create confusion and the person's edits were mildly disruptive. Capt. Milokan (talk) 02:05, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
• BishopCJAndre (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Subject is being self-promoting. I usually give CoI editors a bit of leeway, but when he's a prosperity gospel preacher, I say an indef is warranted until the editor can show they understand that self-promotion is not what the project is about.. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:34, 10 May 2019 (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. Mfield (Oi!) 03:58, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
