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

• B.Dover 1988 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a offensive username. username is sexually suggestive, short for ¨ben dover¨ Tenebre_Rosso_Sangue, Editing with SSStyle!

• EMcGrathFdn (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. User:EMcGrathFdn presumably represents the McGrath Foundation, which it has edited, and in the process has replaced almost all citations with links to mcgrathfoundation.com.au (a primary source). It has also edited the related articles Glenn McGrath and Jane McGrath.

  Apologies if this is not the right place to go to first - the Twinkle warning on Template:Uw-coi-username said not to bother for obvious violations. Iiii I I I (talk) 08:27, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

  The one thing that gives me pause here is the "E" in the name which could suggest that their name is "E McGrath"(even if they represent the Foundation they're editing about). 331dot (talk) 10:06, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

• GreenvilleClinicKnli (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. QueerEcofeminist🌈 13:52, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

  Comment: I'm not seeing how this username is either misleading or promotional. This user hasn't edited about a "Greenville Clinic"; to block as promotional there needs to be some sort of connection between their edits and their name. 331dot (talk) 15:46, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
