-                Has the person provided relevant information in his request, or has he simply
-                copied the text from the account creation failure message?  All genuine (non-spam)
-                account creation requests seen between 2009 and 2016 for tools.ietf.org have
-                contained a reasonable request message, rather than just copy-pasting the account
-                creation failure message.  If there's no proper request message, step 2 below can
-                be performed to make sure the request is bogus, but if that also fails, no further

-                    still be somebody who is just getting involved in IETF work.  A datatracker account
-                    is probably not necessary, (no account is necessary to 'join' a WG -- the right thing
-                    in that case is to join the right mailing list, and the person could be told so) --
-                    but in case this is a legitimate request, please email the person and ask:
-                    <i>
-                        "Which wgs do you require a password for?"

-                </p>
-                <p>
-                    This is a bit of a trick question, because it is very unlikely that somebody who
-                    isn't involved in IETF work will give a reasonable response, while almost any answer
-                    from somebody who is doing IETF work will show that they have some clue.
-                </p>
-                <p>
-                    Please note the exact wording.  Do <b><i>not</i></b> ask about "working groups" --
-                    that will make it easier for people to google for IETF working groups.  Ask the
-                    question as given above, with lowercase "wgs".
-                </p>
-                <p>
-                    If the answer to this question shows clue, then add the address to the allowlist

-                    <a href="{% url 'ietf.ietfauth.views.create_account' %}">account creation form</a>
