References to specific persons in a rule, including but not limited to references via legal name, username, display name, or commonly-used nickname, are considered to be references to the person or persons being referred to at the time the text containing said reference was proposed unless the rule explicitly states otherwise.
A person that is specifically referred to by a rule cannot stop being referred to by said rule by no longer associating with the identification being used in said rule, nor would a person start being referred to by a rule if they were to change their identification to match the rule’s reference.
References to a group of persons based on their identification fall outside the scope of this rule.
