Regarding Wikipedia: Username policy December 2, 2018

Many articles which provide information would be more beneficial especially for English as Second Language readers. I am offering this revision as a simplified version of Wikipedia's Username policy.

Username Policy: Points to Remember. Usernames 1. User names are used to acknowledge all contributions written by a single writer. 2. User names must be acceptable by Wikipedia standards. 3. User names should be used by one person only 4. All contributed notes and information should be limited to only one account 5. A username can be changed. However this is a complicated process. Previous contributions will be attributed to the same account. 6. Contributions, notes or coments made not logged in will be matched to the user's IP address. 7. Contributors may in most cases be able to use the same username and password to log in to another language on Wikipedia. 8. By default your username appears in your signature on posts to discussion pages. 9. Your username is a nickname that will identify your account and your contributions to Wikipedia. 10. Your username and password are necessary to log in to your account 11. Once you have completed your username and password, you may create a user page to provide relevant information about you to other Wikipedia readers entitled "User:UN"

Policy Summary: Usernames 1. Usernames must represent you as an individual person. You may not use the names of companies, organizations, websites, groups, bands, teams, clubs, etc. 2. Usernames cannot imply shared use or representative position of a role title, or position within an organization. Example: Betty Scott is president of the PTA at her son's school. Her username cannot mention or include her position and the organization. 3. Caution must be used in choosing a username. Consider carefully before creating an account using your real name. You could easily be identified and open to instances of   harassment and controversy. 4. Make sure that your username is not directly connected to a specific cause or issue. 5. Make sure that your username is not chosen to impersonate or copy a stage name, pen name or other nickname.
