Revision as of 10:51, 24 December 2023
This is a policy proposal.
The policy has not been approved yet.
Draft at User:Slate/Inkipedia:Policy/Username.
Long overdue username policy. Inkipedia has unwritten restrictions on what is admissible as a username. These requirements are covered by this new policy.
Start date: 22 December 2023
End date: 12 January 2024
Support
- Yeah, for the most part I can get behind this. It curtails a string of issues that tend to crop up and I think serves as a stronger security feature. I'm still of the belief names should be at minimum two characters long but we've argued over that enough and I'm willing to concede that point. Users should be able to clearly derive whether something is a page or a person and causing confusion with naming helps greatly. Bolstering other policies is a plus too.

Discussion
- On Trig's 2-character minimum point, I feel like I should write here for public record. This minimum does not exist due to the allowance of non-Latin script. For example, 鰞 (cuttlefish/squid), could be a valid username. Further, more than half the English alphabet (single letters) have already been registered and due to the grandfathering clause, I don't feel like this is a battle worth having. Finally, the policy covers no symbols and punctuation only as blockable. Slate Talk Contribs 14:50, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
