            Bug ID: 54251
           Summary: Antispoof complaint
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown

I don't know the workings of Antispoof, but it seems to me that it was created
for something specific; to distinct Admins or maybe other important users from
others. However it effects all usernames, which to me just is not approriate. i
wanted to register with my favorite username "lLenn" only to be told that
"LLenn" (note: double capital l) and that it resembles the username "Lienn".
Now, I can understand the importance of this tool, but please, either have a
blacklist of words to check against or just remove this extension.
