UAA navigation: Main page • Category • Instructions • Policy

• WP:UAA

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.

This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators. This notice will be automatically removed by HBC AIV helperbot14 (talk) when the backlog is cleared.

User-reported

• Backoffice584 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. WP:CORPNAME, promotional sandbox. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 07:36, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

  Borderline IMO, they seem to be promoting 'Back Office Accounting' or 'Back Office Accounting Specialists', which the username certainly hints at but doesn't quite match. I've deleted their sandbox spam and given only warning, for now. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:27, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

• OfficialTeamTos (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading and promotional username. Role accounts. Softblock?. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 14:10, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

  @Bunnypranav Wait until the user edits. --Ahecht (TALK

• Life So Strange Official (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 14:12, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

  @Bunnypranav Being discussed with the user.. Do not report editors to UAA who have already been warned unless they have continued to edit after the warning. --Ahecht (TALK

• Biglanadelreyfanyippee (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a disruptive username. Skywatcher68 (talk) 14:22, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

  Not a violation of the username policy. I'm not seeing how a username expressing fandom of a musician (Lana Del Rey) is disruptive. Hog Farm _Talk 14:50, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

  That's what it is? Couldn't tell with the lack of spaces.   –Skywatcher68 (talk) 15:43, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

  Try reading their username carefully before reporting someone to UAA. They might be offended. It's pretty easy. Sangsangaplaz (Talk to me! I'm willing to help) 16:06, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

• Samjad P S (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) Claims to be the director of Golam (2024 film). I think it is impersonation for removing the plot. 117.230.93.50 (talk) 17:43, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
