This page is for listing usernames that are promotional, confusing, offensive, or excessively long and warnings have been issued to the user asking them to change their username. If the user listed has changed their username, please remove it from the list, if they had continued editing and ignored the concerns, an administrator may block the account after an appropriate length of time. If there are no further edits then the username may be removed after 7 days with no further action taken, without prejudice to a future relisting. To list a user here, please firstly warn them that their username is inappropriate, clearly explaining why and how to change it. Then place {{Userlinks|USERNAME}} reason the username is inappropriate. ~~~~ under the appropriate date. Administrators may remove any listing which is not against the username policy at any time.
