At the 2017 summit we discussed account removal policy as previously touched upon by CB-49. We've decided that:

• When a user wished to remove their account, their account will be blanked from MetaBrainz/MusicBrainz and all other brainz projects.
• Blanking show be done how it is currently done in MB: Rename the user to "Deleted User #****" and all personally identifying fields should be blanked.
• Any content created by that user should NOT be removed.
• We will need to create some mechanism that when an account is removed from MetaBrainz, that all the other brainz projects receive a message to blank the personal details for that user from that project.
