Neutrality[edit]

We do have a perfectly good admin named Neutrality, though. Just sayin'. Bishonen | tålk 21:32, 19 May 2021 (UTC).[reply]

The exception which proves the rule. Beyond My Ken (talk) 22:01, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Any plans to elevate this to Wikipedia space?...[edit]

...or should WP:First Law of Usernames be created to redirect here? Beyond My Ken (talk) 13:01, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Beyond My Ken, sorry for the delay (and saw your email about this), been on vacation for a couple weeks and just got back. Will move it. GeneralNotability (talk) 21:21, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Great. Hope you had a nice vacation! Beyond My Ken (talk) 21:23, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Shortcut name[edit]

WP:POVUSERNAME could be a potential redirect, perhaps? I almost created it but someone may have a better name idea, —PaleoNeonate – 02:34, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Other ideas: RGWUSERNAME, AGENDANAME, MISLEADINGNAME, FACTNAME, TRUTHNAME, MISSIONUSER... —PaleoNeonate – 02:50, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I like POVUSERNAME or POVNAME, and TRUTHNAME or TRUTHUSERNAME. Beyond My Ken (talk) 03:41, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
POVNAME was already used so POVUSERNAME it is for now. Thanks, —PaleoNeonate – 11:41, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
