# How to Censor Inappropriate Names on a Quiz

> Manually censor an individual quiz player's name from the lobby or a leaderboard slide, without relying on the profanity filter — and uncensor it the same way.

You can manually censor an individual quiz player's name without using the profanity filter.

The [profanity filter](/presenting/how-to-use-profanity-filter) catches and censors most English profanities entered by participants. Even so, there may be other inappropriate quiz names that you want to censor manually.

## There are 2 ways to do this

### 1. In the lobby

While waiting to start a quiz, player names gradually appear in the lobby. The presenter can censor any inappropriate name simply by clicking on the name.

### 2. On the leaderboard

On any leaderboard slide, the presenter can press the **eye** icon next to a participant's name to censor it.

Once a name is manually censored this way, it **stays censored** until the presenter uncensors it the same way.
