Note: This page is protected to avoid abuse, if you wish to make a change please suggest it on the talk page. Since this page is editable only by administrators it is important to be sure that your changes reflect consensus before making them.

This page is for strings that if contained in a username would indicate that the username should be reviewed by a human. Only lines that are formatted like " ; :FLAG1,FLAG2...FLAGn "(the ":FLAGS" are optional) will be read into the blacklist. When a change is made to this page the bot will read it immediately. See also the whitelist. If obscenities bother you, don't click the show button.

Flags
Place a ":" after a string then one or more flags separated by commas. Flags can have parameters in the following form: FLAG(PARAM1|PARAM2...|PARAMn).

Please note that flag parameters cannot contain any commas <,> pipes <|>, or parentheses <( or )>, or it will break the parsing of that particular entry.

Flags are optional. The order in which the flags are given does not affect results.


 * ALTERNATE_TARGET(Page name): If this flag is used the bot will report to the page given as the parameter instead of its default location. The page will need " " somewhere on it or the bot will not write to it. ✅
 * HTTP_CHECK(ignore_fail): Treat the username as a domain name and attempts to find a server on port 80, it reports the results. If ignore_fail is given as a parameter then it will suppress the reporting of the pattern if it is unable to contact the server. ✅
 * LABEL(label): Lets you name the string something other than the actual pattern(mostly for long or confusing regexes) ✅
 * LOW_CONFIDENCE: If this flag is set then the bot will add a note to the report indicating that this pattern is prone to false positives and should be examined very carefully. ✅
 * NOTE(Custom note): If this flag is set then the parameter will be given as a custom comment on the report. ✅
 * REGEX: If this flag is set then the string will be interpreted as a regular expression. ✅
 * SOCK_PUPPET(Sock puppet name): If this flag is set then it associates usernames containing the string with a known sock puppet. If the user has a it will also be shown. ✅
 * USE_HEADER: If this flag is set then the bot will put a second level header above the report. Please do not use this unless the page is going to a non default page via the ALTERNATE_TARGET flag. eg: "==  ==" ✅
 * WAIT_TILL_EDIT: If this flag is set then the string will not trigger a report until the user has edited. ✅
 * HOMOGLYPH: If this flag is set then it will attempt to find names using lookalike characters. The list of what counts as a homoglyph is based on User:SoxBot/UAA/Homoglyphs. This does not work with REGEX.
