Long usernames
Due to technical issues, I think usernames 75 characters or longer must be denied. It's done like this: .{75,} <newaccountonly>. --Bfdifan2006 10:26, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
- Sorry for the late reply and thanks for bringing it up. We have settled on 35, and it's been added. Adil — Talk page 23:50, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
Tiny issue with the .{35,} rule
Since it is counting the length after "User:" has been added in front, this effectively limits usernames to 29 characters instead of the intended 35. I was wondering if it'd be possible to adjust it to compensate for that. Bry10022 12:57, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
- Appending "User:" could probably work. I didn't know about the "User:" part counting to the limit. C.Ezra.M (talk | contribs) 13:26, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
