If an account is created with a username that matches an entry in the title blacklist (even if you overrode the title blacklist on the new account creation page when creating it), the account will be unable to create any pages within their own userspace due to how the title blacklist functions. The account will also experience many other related issues and problems on Wikipedia due to their username being flagged as a match to an entry in the title blacklist. If you are creating an account and are seeking approval to override the title blacklist because it is erroneously flagging the requested username as something that is not permitted, you should seek to have the entry in the title blacklist modified in order to fix the false positive hit instead of overriding the title blacklist and proceeding with the creation.</span> </li> </ol></div></div> <div
