--- Comment #1 from Steven Walling <[email protected]> 2011-11-09 21:12:34 UTC --- I agree with Erik's idea for this workflow. Currently there are many reason why a username may be blocked indefinitely as unacceptable on the projects. Most of those reasons assume good faith, but require that a new account name be chosen if the person wants to continue editing. It's cumbersome and no doubt incredibly discouraging to new editors. Administrator review as part of this workflow means that all the currently accepted username blocking reasons (See English Wikipedia's list, for one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Template_messages/User_talk_namespace#Blocks) would be covered, including vandal-type names like "User:FooEditorSux". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
