1234qwer1234qwer4 added a comment to T334892: Possible titleblacklist regex error during account creation.

Huh? The task describes that the (original) regexp did not match the account names though? Not sure if this issue still exists, but was wondering about it since I am about to restore part of the original regexp due to lots of abuse.

Wargo added a comment to T405806: CannotCreateActorException when an account creation matches a TitleBlacklist filter.

TitleBlacklist checks account creations rather than edits (in the latter case, a temporary account has already been made for the user).

Creations of Named Accounts. We need this performer to create log. AbuseFilter uses this approach.
