until it edits (at which point, the potentially obscene name is permanently
in the edit history).
My main question is, what is the definition of "blockable". Is that as soon
as it is globally registered, or as soon as they edit on a particular wiki
they can be blocked on it?
As of this exact moment, a username would be blockable once it has been
used to log in on that wiki.
