Good call. Attempting to log in from the wiki itself gives more information:

<<p>The user name "Robbot" has been banned from creation. It matches the
following blacklist entry: <code>.* <noedit> # This wiki will be
re-imported</code> </p>>

(I used Robbot's account instead of my own because the password is simpler)

Thus, what might be going on is that every user name is blacklisted.
