    • [1]
  • avoid using the word tango. Here we are all Tangofrank, Tangoman, Tanguero, Tangoholic etc.
  • after registration it would be nice if you write something about yourself on your user page. Examples: User:Tobiasco, User:Herbertm or at least, it would be nice if you say in which country you live.

Why ocho letters

because

  • ocho is a magic number in tango
  • users that sign in later shall not have the disadvantage of longer names, vs users that sign in early and get shorter.
  • gives the wiki a stronger identity.
  • presenting all username in a list gives a more harmonious picture if they are equal length, e.g. in tables.
