Topic on Talk:Quarry

Is there a character count for Query names? Because there is a new editor, Yesh0305, who is writing ridiculously long query names and the table at https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/runs/all gets all out-of-shape. I've posted to their talk page but I don't think they even realize that they have a talk page. I've looked at their global contributions to reach out to them on their home Wikipedia (which I think is tewiki) but they had none so they must use a different username on Quarry. Maybe there could be a reasonable character limit on names, like 20-30 characters. What do you think?

You mean https://quarry.wmcloud.org/Yesh0305 ? @User:Yesh0305

I don't think name such as "Compare each top editor's total edits against the overall average: How much more than average as percentage" is problematic. It's actually fairly descriptive as name.

Personally, I'm either too lazy or try to keep them short because it becomes the download name, but in principle, in a list of queries, the above can be sensible.
