Here's the thing... (please scroll down so the text doesn't appear in Wiki Activity)

IDK if registered users can view the Contributions of blocked users. If not, it's fine, but if they can, this is an issue, imo. And if the new UCP moves to Recent Changes as the default history in place of Wiki Activity, all file names will be available for perusal. I specifically didn't mention the file name because I didn't want to advertise it and I thought FANDOM scrubbed all pornographic images it encountered to avoid legal issues with underage visitors or else, put them into a locked file. It seems that they do not.

I always check edits and image file names for problems since the file name never leaves an editor's Contributions. It's never been an issue until this file was posted and a simple Google search of the string brought up multiple porn sites. That's the first time I've seen that happen and it took me by surprise. If an underage user tries the same thing (and being tech-savvy these days, they just might) I wonder if FANDOM can be considered a quasi-solicitor. If I were in corporate, I'd be concerned about that.

Another issue is brings up yet again is the fact that the file name can now be passed into DISCORD where conversations can be private. I always ask annoying questions and the question here is: Are these bad actors phishing for pedo targets? That has always prompted my wariness of secretive platforms with innocent faces, but I'm not in charge. I'm just bringing the issue to your attention for it to be on record.

If I should be telling someone else, please provide me with the correct addy and I will do that. Thanks for listening.
