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.

User-reported

• Kaarengineeringservices (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username.

  Comment: They haven't yet edited about such a company; to block as a promotional username there needs to be a connection between their name and their edits. 331dot (talk) 09:08, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

  It's an odd one, I was easily able to confirm that the organization does exists, but they build houses, which as you note has no connection whatsoever to the content they have edited. El Beeblerino 23:36, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

• NutriHarvest (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – created a draft advertising NutriHarvest Inc. 81.2.123.64 (talk) 20:35, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

  Being discussed with the user. They appear to be trying to work within the rules, they just didn't get the memo on orgnames. El Beeblerino 21:28, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

• IASMA123 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. See Draft:Israel Aerospace Medical Association (IAsMA), including edit summary. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 23:30, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

  Being discussed with the user. The ineptitude of their draft suggests to me they simply did not bother to familiarize themselves with.... well anything really before trying to dive right in, they likely did not realize this username would be an issue. El Beeblerino 23:34, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
