OpenWetWare:Username policy
From OpenWetWare
We are attempting to move all usernames to use a person's full real name. Usernames should be the same as the name you use to publish, e.g. "User:Foo Q. Bar, Jr."
Implementation plan
- Special:Renameuser: move existing users
- ensure uniqueness of OWW accounts and email addresses
- allow login via email address
- have all newly created users use the new username format
