FamilySearch Wiki:User ID

	This page documents a guideline. It is a generally accepted standard that contributors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense and the occasional exception.
Any substantive edit to this page should reflect consensus. When in doubt, discuss first on the talk page.

Your User ID will be visible to all users. Consider carefully what name you wish to be identified with. Using your own name is ok, but to maintain a level of privacy, it may be better to select a User ID that only describes you to those who know you well. It is best to choose a neutral, non-controversial name. No obscene or profane names are allowed.
