    Usernames for administrator attention Shortcut

    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 page was last updated at 01:23 on 25 December 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 Purge the cache of this page if it is out of date.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.
    Please replace this notice with {{no admin backlog}} when the backlog is cleared.
    Note: Patrollers are kindly asked to monitor usernames listed at Filter 102, Filter 149, Filter 188, Filter 354 , WP:UAA/HP, and CAT:UAA.

    Not a blatant violation of the username policy, but it's worth keeping an eye on their edits. Singularity42 (talk) 02:19, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
    Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Alexf 16:17, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
    Yes it is! their promotional edits have been deleted http://bello2.com/ Theroadislong (talk) 19:52, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
    Agree with Alexf. This editor has not edited since October 2009. The edits themselves, while problematic, made no reference to their username. The username, while it now happens to match a domain name (which has not website yet), is in now not a 'blatant username violation. Singularity42 (talk) 20:23, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
    If you are an administrator you will be able to see the very recent deleted promotional edits relating to the company bello2 Theroadislong (talk) 20:26, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
    Are you sure you have the right user? The only deleted edits are from October 2009 (yes, I am an admin, and yes I have reviewed the deleted contributions, as with any username added to this noticeboard). Singularity42 (talk) 20:35, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
    Are you able to see what was deleted from user:Bello2's page as requested by me here ] perhaps I'm getting confused I don't know? Theroadislong (talk) 21:00, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
    Now I see it. It was originally created by BELLO2 OFFICIAL (talk · contribs) as that user's user page, and then moved by that user to User:Bello2. Given that the type of edits made by Bello2 back in 2009 are unrelated, and that there's no indication that Bello2 had anything to do with the creation of that page, I'm not prepared to block Bello2 at this time. Singularity42 (talk) 21:23, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
    OK thank you very much for the explanation. All good wishes. Theroadislong (talk) 21:34, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

    Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Consider filing a report at the conflict of interest noticeboard. not a close enough match with concern name. Daniel Case (talk)
    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. Daniel Case (talk) 21:17, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
