This page exists to preserve " institutional memory" in Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names, by listing the actual decisions on usernames brought up as possible violations of Wikipedia:Username policy, by reason. These entries are selected from Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names/Archive.

• Policy wording: "Usernames which consist primarily of the name of a religious figure (such as "God", "Jehovah", "Buddha", or "Allah") are prohibited. In addition, usernames that invoke the name of a religious figure or religion are prohibited should they be distasteful, provoke or promote intolerance, are blatantly disrespectful of the religion, or promote the ideology that one religion is superior to others (e.g. "ChristOnly", etc.). Usernames that are clearly expressions of faith are discouraged, however considered allowed unless disruptive. Should a username not be clear as to the motive, it may be reviewed."
