If I understand your question correctly, your name as a wiki *author* is
FirstnameLastname.

When giving examples of commands, output, etc., you can use whatever you
want. Sometimes you have to use the user "root" in an example.

Yves

Of course, if the program being run in the document example requires superuser privileges, root would be a reasonable choice.

What I am querying is whether a CentOS document should have a consistent look, right down to the username used in examples.
Your assertion is, "you can use whatever you want." Is that the CentOS community standard?
