 Hi.

 The text string 'Only lowercase letters (a-z) and numbers are allowed'
 does not refer to which field it is related to. This can be a bit
 confusing for users are filling out fields when creating a new users.  I
 would suggest to change the text so that it refers to the field it is
 relevant for, e.g: 'Username can only contain lowercase letters(a-z) and
 numbers, without space'

 Code reference;

 functions.php#L474

 functions.php#L633

 Since the text string both for user and site creation, this would also
 require a separate text string for site creation, E.g 'Sitename can only
 contain lowercase letters(a-z) and numbers, without space'
