Is it intentional to restrict the definition to personal pseudonyms? That doesn't cover all uses of them For example, there are house pseudonyms used by publishing houses which are associated with a series and the publishing house contracts with writers to write effectively anonymously (although it's often known who they are). Another example of a relatively well known collective pseudonym is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_Bourbaki There's a whole category of them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Collective_pseudonyms Tom
