When creating an account, a Test Wiki user must choose a name to represent them. That name must be representative of an individual (not imply shared use), not end with the -bot suffix (unless a Steward or Bureaucrat other than the bot operator chooses to approve a bot account for trial or operation), not contain the name of a user right, and not be offensive or profane. Usernames may not be promotional, confusing (be nonsense or be similar to an already existing user), or misleading. A Steward may grant exceptions to the first, third, and fifth requirements. A Bureaucrat or Steward may indefinitely block an account violating this policy.
