Tosin Salako (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username. Has declared that they are not Tosin Salako but are representing him professionally. They must change their user name. The only way to ensure this is a warning shot. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 21:04, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
The account is representing an artist by that name. We allow real names, but in this case it's their employer's/client's real name rather than their own. What do others think? Secretlondon (talk) 22:43, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
Well, WP:REALNAME states Do not edit under a name that is likely to imply that you are (or are related to) a specific, identifiable person, unless it is your real name. Think that's pretty clear. For example, what if Salako splits from this person. Who controls the account? — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:51, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
Jay Westerveldt (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username.

Not a violation of the username policy. Real names are permitted except when they imply that the editor is a specific living person they are not. Consider filing a report at the conflict of interest noticeboard. PhilKnight (talk) 14:49, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
