Test Wiki:Username policy

The following is a draft working towards a proposal for a Test Wiki policy. This draft must not be taken to represent actual policy.

When creating an account, a Test Wiki user must choose a name to represent them. That name must be representative of an individual (not imply shared use), not end with the -bot suffix (unless a Steward or Bureaucrat other than the bot operator chooses to approve a bot account for trial or operation), not contain the name of a user right, and not be offensive or profane. Usernames may not be promotional, confusing (be nonsense or be similar to an already existing user), or misleading. A Steward may grant exceptions to the first, third, and fifth requirements. A Bureaucrat or Steward may indefinitely block an account violating this policy.

Examples

Some examples of what would not be allowed:

1. Name not representative of an individual: "Mary&Dan", "(company name) Team", and similar names.
2. -bot suffix usernames: "(username)BOT" and similar names.
3. "user right names": "Administrator", "Bureaucrat", "Steward", "Autopatrolled", etc.
4. Offensive names: "FUCK TEST WIKI", "FUCK(name of person)", etc.
5. Promotional, confusing, or misleading usernames: "(company name)hasasale", "(company name)", "hsiikallxno", "Justarandomämerican"
