Usernames for administrator attention

Shortcuts

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.

This page was last updated at 04:14 on 16 May 2024 (UTC). Purge the cache of this page if it is out of date.

This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators.
This notice will be automatically removed by HBC AIV helperbot5 (talk) when the backlog is cleared.

User-reported

11Fox11 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – TV station KTTV in Los Angeles is a Fox-owned-and-operated station on channel 11 which uses "Fox 11" as its branding name, [1] so "11Fox11" is a clear violation of the username policy. Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:17, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I did not even know about that station, I don't think I've ever edited anything about LA or TV stations. Fox is an animal, a Fox (surname) family name, and Fox one is specifically a Fox (code word) for launching a missile. When I chose my user name I had all this in mind, not some TV station in LA! If an admin considers this a violation, could my user name please be changed to user:FoxOne? And if any numeral is forbidden for Fox, then user:GoFoxGo? 11Fox11 (talk) 03:46, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
