I am not aware of cases on English Wikipedia which are named after the person except where that person used their name as their username. It is typical that we avoid a name where a username exists. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Bluemarine However there are many cases named after people where their name is also their username. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=233468914 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=388967291 more can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Cases English Wikipedia ArbCom usually blanks old decisions on request of a person whose real name is mentioned in the page. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=360884606 -- John Vandenberg _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
