Our article on Fenian says: "Fenian is a term
used since the 1860s for
an Irish nationalist who espouses or is perceived to espouse violence
against British rule, usually by people opposed to their aims."
Apparently it's a politically incorrect word used to insult someone
with a particular belief. Combined with the word swine, I would very
much think this to be an offensive username (and I'm Dutch not
British). Please forgive me if it has been addrsssed before, but has
anyone ever asked him to change his username?
Yes, last year, see:

I'm British, but I don't find his user name (which would appear to be
sarcastic) nor his user page especially offensive.
