Usernames for administrator attention

Shortcuts

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.

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.
Real names are permitted, except when the editor implies they are someone other than themselves, such as impersonating a notable living person.
Promotional names require evidence to be blocked. Do not report a username merely because it "appears" promotional.
For libellous usernames or usernames that contain another editor's nonpublic personal information, please contact an oversighter and do not report it here.
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.
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.
Patrollers are asked to remove reports that have been declined, are bot-reported false positives or are otherwise non-blatant or stale reports.

You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

Note: Patrollers may wish to monitor usernames flagged by filters 54, 148 and 149; private filters 102, 354, 499, 579; and this recent changes filter tag.

This page was last updated at 11:30 on 29 May 2024 (UTC). Purge the cache of this page if it is out of date.

This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators.
This notice will be automatically removed by HBC AIV helperbot5 (talk) when the backlog is cleared.

User-reported[edit]

LLMCAgencyTZ (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. While I haven't found a real company under this name, they have started a draft for a Businessperson, which could imply a WP:PAY situation. Nobody (talk) 11:54, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We need evidence of the thing they are promoting. They've not promoted anything called that. It could be LLM or LLC Agency from Texas?Secretlondon (talk) 14:20, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
IPWAY (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, see Special:AbuseLog/37866708. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 13:17, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
User has changed their username. Secretlondon (talk) 14:21, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Aryaneditor56 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as an offensive username. Edits mostly constructively (although out of line with mos). Thanks,Neuropol^Talk 13:46, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is probably Aryan as India not Nazis. Secretlondon (talk) 14:29, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yash12007 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 14:27, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's a real name - even though it is undoubtable spam. Secretlondon (talk) 14:37, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
See User:Yash12007/sandbox where it seems to be the company name. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 14:38, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes but the "company name" (of one) is the name of Yashi who was born in 2007. Secretlondon (talk) 14:41, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough, but imo the name in this instance is being used to represent and promote the company rather than the individual. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 14:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MetropolisPAC (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username.

Note: User is in the category: User talk pages with conflict of interest notices. HBC AIV helperbot5 (talk) 17:41, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: User is in the category: User talk pages with conflict of interest notices. HBC AIV helperbot5 (talk) 19:39, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Promoting a politician - the username is a name of a constituency. Secretlondon (talk) 06:01, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bryanwhitman1 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Promotional username of a WP:SPA. Jamiebuba (talk) 20:20, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: User is in the category: User talk pages with conflict of interest notices. HBC AIV helperbot5 (talk) 21:44, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- 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. Secretlondon (talk) 06:02, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Notabillionaire1 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Writes about company with same name Draft:Benjamin Berkowitz. ~Liance^talk 00:06, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not a violation of the username policy. Technically it's not a violation. The '1' on the end changes it to potentially just that person. Conflict of interest, yes. Likely paid editing, yes. I'll warn now. --Hammersoft (talk) 01:38, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The official AQA exam board (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username. Highly unlikely to be the AQA examination board, but if it is, then it's a promotional username. Wikishovel (talk) 09:57, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Technologyinsight.tech (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Represents company, see userpage Pahunkat (talk) 10:00, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
