Forum:Reserved usernames with no contributions

During the migration from Wikia, we reserved the names of all Wikia accounts on Wowpedia -- even if they haven't edited Wowwiki. As reasonable amount of time has passed, I think that it may make sense to remove reservations for users with no edits. This would allow anyone interested to claim those names using the normal registration procedure.

Any thoughts on the issue? &mdash; foxlit (talk) 16:53, 22 August 2011 (UTC)


 * I fully agree with this sentiment to get rid off the reserved names. -- Asmode (talk) 17:15, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

 * What about usernames reserved by active users to prevent trolls from taking a similar name?-- 19:50, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Anything to prevent trolls, well cyber ones anyway, so keeping those? TherasTaneel (talk) 20:19, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
 * There's no way to tell those accounts apart. You could simply reclaim them now, re-register them after, or deal with any potential problems as they occur. &mdash; foxlit (talk) 12:29, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I guess if anyone cares, they can remake them.-- 23:17, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
