A glitch?
Recently the username was caught, and I can't see why. It's *close* to matching the p[e3][nm][i1!][sc5z] rule, but being close shouldn't be enough to put it on the list. I'm worried there might be a bug in the code, and if there is, there might be more that we're missing. I'm not much for regex though so I could be missing something that to others is obvious. — Soap — 04:49, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * shouldnt have matched either. Is there some other function running on top of the blacklist that catches names that "almost" fit?  e.g. I could see a rule that treats drex as a variant of dreck as a good way to catch vandals who obfuscate their names to escape detection.  pernic could be an odd deliberate misspelling of penis.  If that's all that it is, it's probably good, but if it's not, then there's a bug.  — Soap — 04:58, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Ahhh, I think I figured it out. pernic is seen as "pemis", drex is "drecks", both of which match the list items exactly.   — Soap — 05:02, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

 * It would be useful for these to be added. Except perhaps "moot" and "bund" which are commonly used in some other languages and therefore might be ordinary username requests. I am not sure if this request is to prevent any username with these words in the name, or just to raise alert for it. If only raising alert then it is fine because there would also be an explanation why. MPS1992 (talk) 20:04, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Regex optimization
Some of the blacklist entries that have been added recently are regular expressions that are written in a complicated way and could be optimized to a shorter string that is easier to understand and requires less processing time, while still matching the same bad usernames. Here are some examples of possible improvements:
 * ga(a|)nd(u|oo|): Can be simplified to gaa?nd. Using the ? operator to indicate an optional character is more efficient than using | with an empty string. Therefore, the string as it is can be rewritten to gaa?nd(u|oo)?. However, you will notice that since the "u/oo" part at the end is optional, it is actually redundant, since any username containing "gandu" or "gandoo" will match "gand" anyway.
 * lu(n|l|ll|nd): Can be simplified to lu[ln]. Using character selectors is more efficient than the | operator. Also, similar to the case above, it is redundant to add extra cases to the regex to check for "lull" or "lund", since these will already match "lul" and "lun" respectively.
 * l(a|)or(r|)a: Can be simplified to la?orr?a. As noted above, using ? to indicate an optional character is more efficient than using the or operator with an empty string.
 * b(ai|eh)ncho(a|)d: Similarly, can be simplified to b(ai|eh)nchoa?d.
 * tatta(y|): Can be simplified to tatta. Since the y at the end is optional, checking for it is redundant - any username containing "tattay" will match "tatta" anyway.

Hope this helps. 51.174.124.5 (talk) 11:28, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

A lot of usernames containing the string "bich" seem to be Vietnamese names. I'd like the "bich" filter to have a note saying that Bich is a Vietnamese name (like how the "porn" edit filter has the Thai name note and the "shit" one has the Indian one).

So, I'd like the following added to the string bich:

Apologies if I didn't format this right, first time making a request here. Intent, as the section header suggests, is to catch lyrics website spammers, the websites almost always contain the word "lyric" or "lyrics", the usernames are often the name of the website but sometimes have numbers thrown in as well. "lyrics" would work as well, if you think that "lyric" might have false positives.

Suggestion
Hello @AmandaNP. I have a suggestion regarding to the username blacklist.

1. The current surge of so-called 'lyric video' creators. How about considering the "lyric video or LV" in the blacklist as ot might appear as a company/organization/any group?

The transcript for this is/are:

lyric[ ]video NOTE refers to the lyric video creators on social media outlets.

2. As the suppression of vandalism in pages with alleged Among Us game references like impostor/imposter/sus/amogus and other related terms. Users with those names or substring tends to vandalise pages with Impostor or SUS and alike in the mainspace.

The transcript will be like: impostor/imposter NOTE Among Us-related vandalism and disruptive editing.

Any action will be welcome. Thanks. User:Ahthga YramTalk with me! I want to change my name! 14:29, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

I recently encountered a username containing ching chong that turned up at AIV, and noticed that imitation Chinese is not currently covered by the blacklist. Thus, I recommend the following addition: :ching[ -]*ch[ao]ng:NOTE(imitation of the Chinese language) This won't capture all kinds of imitation Chinese, but should cover the most common variety, ching chong or ching chang chong. Ching, chang, and chong by themselves should not trip the filter since they are common Chinese names. –<b style="color:#77b">Laundry</b><b style="color:#fb0">Pizza</b><b style="color:#b00">03</b> ( d c̄ ) 09:02, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Duplicated comments
Hi, I have noticed there are duplicated comments in the list and some of them seems to be mistakes. Please see if they need some fix.

The first duplication I found: ":nazi
 * NOTE(Usernames that promote a controversial or potentially inflammatory point of view may be in violation of the username policy due to creating a hostile editing environment- but some real names contain the string "nazi" - especially names from the Middle East - be careful that this is not the case before blocking.)
 * '''national ?social(ist"

- ism)'''
 * NOTE(Usernames that promote a controversial or potentially inflammatory point of view may be in violation of the username policy due to creating a hostile editing environment- but some real names contain the string "nazi" - especially names from the Middle East - be careful that this is not the case before blocking.)

– the reference to 'nazi' as a part of some real names is not necessary in the comment to the 'national socialism' item.

The other one is here: ":'''rac(ial)?(ism"

- ist)'''
 * NOTE(Accusations of racism may constitute a personal attack)
 * antisemit
 * NOTE(Accusations of racism may constitute a personal attack)

– antisemitism may be considered a special case of racism, but I think it would be better to use the specific term in the comment.

I know this has already been covered, but...
I have been seeing accounts containing the numbers 69 and 420, and sometimes, the numbers are mashed together. They have been used to vandalize Wikipedia (examples:, , ). I know that 69 has a sexual meaning and 420 is connected to marijuana use. Due to these numbers' indecent meanings, I think they should be readded to the blacklist. As a result, when these numbers appear alone or mashed up, they should be a red flag for someone who does not intend to positively contribute to Wikipedia.

As to the rest, though, there's insufficient explanation of why they're needed, and I'm uncomfortable actioning something where I'd have to fix syntax errors and guess at what was intended. Feel free to resubmit with syntax errors corrected and with an explanation of why each addition is necessary, preferably linking to examples of disruptive accounts that match the patterns in question.

 * Yes, got that. In the first case, I think the originator had posterity in mind where younger editors might not readily associate "the n-word" with National Socialism. So let me take my TE hat off and object to that elimination of a plausible explanation. Nor do I see any need to use the antisemitism term in the Note(. The note defines the term, so "racism" should be enough.

Request
I've noticed that new usernames which contain "Skibidi" in them often are used only for disruption/vandalism/trolling. Is there any way we could add a filter which blocks all usernames with "Skibidi" and/or sends them to UAA? Same with "Erm, what the sigma", for the same reason. Originally requested at Edit filter/Requested If you reply here, please ping me. <span id="TheTechie:1716953587766:User_talkFTTCLNAmandaNP/UAA/Blacklist" class="FTTCmt"> —  thetechie@enwiki  :  ~/talk/  $  03:33, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Better link:Edit filter/Requested/Archive_21. You may want to provide a couple diffs of misbehavior to help add more context and strengthen the claim that these names are usually troublemakers. – Novem Linguae (talk) 04:27, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

 * The first one was a constructive edit request that was accepted, though that user previously attempted obvious vandalism in this filtered edit.
 * The second link seems to be to the wrong diff; see instead this diff. SilverLocust 💬 19:52, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

 * ❌ I'm not seeing sufficient cause to do this - it seems like the existing systems are working as they should (especially since the second edit was reverted by ClueBot). * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun... 05:10, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
