Mario Party Wiki:Username Policy

Mario Party Wiki's username policy is a policy regarding permissible usernames.

What isn't allowed
Usernames may not be misleading, offensive, promotional, disruptive, or contain the word 'wiki'.

Misleading
Misleading usernames may take the form of impersonating a real life person, claiming affiliation with an organization, or claiming a position of authority on this or any other wiki.

Offensive
Usernames containing profanity, either obscured or blatant, are prohibited, as are usernames intended to "attack".

Promotional
Usernames intended to advertise something.

Disruptive
Any username not covered by the above criteria but still disruptive.

"Wiki" in usernames
Usernames may not contain any reference to wikis in them. While it might seem to be harmless, an observation of both Wikia and Wikipedia demonstrates that editors with "wiki" in their usernames are literally invariably disruptive, and so such usernames are forbidden as a preventative measure.

Blocking policy
As a general rule of thumb, editors blocked for usernames should have the policy politely explained to them and have it requested that they register a different name. They should be blocked with talk page access and account creation enabled.

In the case of usernames used deliberately to attack, disrupt or troll, the blocking sysop may use his or her judgment in whether to recommend re-registering with a different name or simply blocking indefinitely.
