Summary

What makes an acceptable user name for the site

Discussion

I have just blocked [1] as I thought that it might confuse users, especially casual readers of the site. They might confer special status on the username.

I did not set the "Prevent account creation" or the "Automatically block the last IP address used by this user, and any subsequent IP addresses they try to edit from" buttons in the hope that they will simply use another username.

What do you think makes a bad enough to ask someone to change, username? --Paddy3118 07:39, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

P.S. I had done similar for someone using profanity in their username in the week before, but I was more sure of myself on that one. --Paddy3118 07:39, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
