Sergiu I speak of databases/schemas not only wikis (that I know how to get). A databases server can contains more database than just wikis and Wiki Manager would need to say to user which name he can't user as wiki name.

And I set it at XWikiStoreInterface level because there is no standard way to do this XWikiHibernateStore has to make different query for each database tye (mysql, hsqldb, etc.)

In fact I think XWikiStoreInterface sould not expose databases concept directly because even it's quite impossible now with all the hsql request used we want XWikiStoreInterface to be able to works with more than just databases. I will create an issue for a "isWikiNameUsed" method than cover WikiManager need without using database different than wiki concept.

How about isWikiNameValid, and isWikiNameAvailable instead of isWikiNameUsed? Valid means it does not contains special characters, and available means the database with that name can be registered.
