:::Well, you are correct in that there is no precisely stated policy.  Perhaps this is intentional, to prevent people from seeing exactly how close to a violation they can go.  But some of the more responsible sysops have lately been giving a block reason in an informal way -- "spam-like formula to user name".  Perhaps some of the other sysops could start following that practice.  For example, VargasMilan gave that reason in some blocks at 22:42 and 23:13 on Feb. 19.  The users involved were "Tights07twig" and "Moatnoodle1".  Other users blocked around that time were "Lakiesha32" and "Rachel21".  It's not hard to see the formula-like construction -- nonsense words with digits.  Why spammers do it that way is a mystery to me.  So I think it would be fair to say that, official username policy or not, people desiring to do serious editing would do well not to create such ridiculous names.  [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] 10:54, 21 February 2015 (EST)
