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.

• Deleted User 0182762 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username. Someone who's wrong on the internet (talk) 20:04, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

  Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Just Step Sideways 20:23, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

  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. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 23:45, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

  Not a username violation, but this is almost certainly a sock of User:Qonetaxiservice. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 06:54, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

• Bintan transport and tours (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Synorem (talk) 03:37, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  Wait until the user edits. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 03:40, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

• ScifaxEditor (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Role account, edits for Scifax Technology and Publishing Private Limited. – DreamRimmer (talk) 13:04, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  It would say clearly, but another admin User:Rsjaffe unblocked them. I don't know why as it's clearly a company name. Secretlondon (talk) 13:57, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  It includes a brand name, but it isn't just a brand name. This is explicitly allowed. See WP:ISU and the preceding section. DatGuy_Contribs 14:18, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  I suggest you read the 3rd bullet point of WP:ISU DatGuy. The name is a role within a business. Please revert yourself Rsjaffe. Cabayi (talk) 14:25, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  @Cabayi: I do not read "ScifaxEditor" and consider "Editor" the person's role within the organisation. "Scifax" implies they are linked with Scifax, and "Editor" implies they are a Misplaced Pages editor. DatGuy_Contribs 14:27, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  See User talk:Rsjaffe#ScifaxEditor block for an explanation. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 14:27, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  What DatGuy just said is more or less what I pointed out in the thread linked above. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 14:45, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  Editor is not a job role. This is clearly promo editing. Secretlondon (talk) 14:47, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  Look at the deleted article. I don’t think writing that one article is blockable, particularly since the author declared their coi. This was a name block that I retracted. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 14:51, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

  Scifax Technology and Publishing Private Limited is a scientific publishing company as stated on their website so there might be editorial roles within the company. – DreamRimmer (talk) 14:56, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

• Bingo Kritic (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) Violation of the username policy with a promotional edit to The Wild Robot (See this user’s contribution). 2600:1702:2340:3020:d58e:2c6f:88fd:4552 (talk)

  Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Consider filing a report at the conflict of interest noticeboard. It's their non-notable instagram name, we generally treat that the same as a real or stage name, Just Step Sideways 18:43, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
