Wikipedia:Changing username/Archive3
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- I would like to be renamed "newname" so that Angela can test whether this rename thing really works. Thank you. Oldname 9 July 2005 15:13 (UTC)
- This worked. I had to recreate the old account in order to block it. It might be best to just leave this to the user to do if they want to. It seems to be logged at Special:Log but only mixed in with the other logs, since it doesn't have its own log yet (see bugzilla:2772). Angela. July 9, 2005 15:42 (UTC)
Please change all edits so they are attributed to User:Jguk, jguk 9 July 2005 07:54 (UTC) And using the "new" account as proof it's me, jguk 9 July 2005 07:57 (UTC)
- Does User:Josh really exist? Seems to have an account, with no activity at all ever. If it's available, I'd kinda like it. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 9 July 2005 18:09 (UTC)
- Yes, it does exist but has no edits on the English Wikipedia. We don't yet have any policy on whether unused accounts can be reassigned. Angela. 07:30, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
- There is precedent for letting someone take over an inactive username that has no (few?) edits. Kate did it. →Raul654 00:37, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, but with single login about to be introduced, that might not be a good precedent to follow. If you've created Raul654 on fr to prevent someone else getting it so you can have single login when it arrives, you're not going to be too pleased if Raul654 is given out to someone else now just because you have few edits over there.

In the german and the french Wikipedia, I am the user named Marom. Some time ago, I created my account User:Marom here. Now I tried to login, but my common password didn't work, and I didn't get an email with a new password. Wow can I recover my account (when I can not proove that it is mine)? --84.152.8.157 21:25, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
Please change all 3 edits so they are attributed to User:Mike@jones-reddy.org Confirmed from old account User:mreddy@glam.ac.uk
Please change Gebruiker:Dedalus into Dedalus. Gebruiker:Dedalus 08:43, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
Please can you attribute origin of anthrobotics entry to User:Mike@jones-reddy.org if not a problem. I think I made it anonymously originally, then edited as User:mreddy@glam.ac.uk- This page is only for changing username, not for changing attribution for an edit. Angela. 13:29, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
- Please change my username from Pberkel to PieterB. I don't have a userpage either. Ta.
Please change my username from Martin-f to Martin_Fasani. Thanks a lot!- Done. →Raul654 22:30, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
Please change my username from Darra to Tyhjiö. Thank you. --Darra 13:44, 13 July 2005 (UTC)- Done. Two things to remember - (A) move the old userpage to the new user page, and (B) Even if it is successful in changing the account name, the Special:Renameuser times out every time. →Raul654 21:19, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
Please change my username from Nick_L_N_Chang to NickC. Thanks. (I have a home page and a talk page, do I just copy and paste it to my new user page? I would like my old user page and talk page redirected to my new one user page and talk page please, and how do I check that my old account recreated and blocked?. ). - Nick_L_N_Chang 11:01, July 14, 2005 (BST)- user:NickC already exists. →Raul654 10:31, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Ok, I'll use User:Nick_C. Thanks. Nick_L_N_Chang 11:47, July 14, 2005 (BST)- Done. →Raul654 10:49, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- user:NickC already exists. →Raul654 10:31, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- Could someone please capitalize the g in ma username? From Silentguy to SilentGuy? thanks --Silentguy 12:32, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
- Please change my username to Durin. Thus, please record as "<name removed> changed to Durin". Please recreate old username and block. Are the user pages and discussion pages normally wiped as well? If not, I'd like to have them wiped. I presume the password remains the same? --Durin 14:22, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
-
- Done, including the wipe of your old user and discussion page. The password for your new account will remain the same and your old username has had its password set to a random value. Please note that any links to your user page and talk page will remain; I ask that you change these manually so that there are no dead links. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 01:55, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
- Please change my username to User:SP-KP - SP-KP 12:24, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
-
- Done. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 01:47, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks - SP-KP 10:45, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
- Please could you change my username from User:500LL to User:Cedar-Guardian?. 500LL 18:29, July 18, 2005 (UTC)

- >poof< You are now Cedar-Guardian. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 01:47, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
Please rename user creationist to kdbuffalo

- Complete. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 20:50, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
- I'd like to be renamed to Home Row Keysplurge if this is possible. - Cymydog Naakka 21:56:07, 2005-07-28 (UTC)
- User:Antares911 requested via email to me to be renamed to User:Gryffindor. He expressed some concern that another user might take the name before he could be renamed if he requested it publically. I asked Antares911 to confirm his identity by posting to my User_talk page, which he did, and I have renamed him. Pakaran 20:35, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
- I'd like to be renamed from Vt-aoe to Leviathan, but I see there's already an account by that name, albeit an inactive one with no edit history, User Page, or Talk Page. In light of Angela's extremely valid points exchanged with Raul654 regarding Jpgordon's recent similar request (Archive3), I took a look at some other Wikiprojects and noted that Leviathan isn't currently in use on Wictionary, Wikibooks, Wikiquote, Wikisource, Wikispecies, Wikinews, Wikicommons, Meta-Wiki, or on many of the most popular translations of Wikipedia (French, Italian, Japanese, Dutch, Portuguese, or Swedish). There is a similarly inactive account by that name on the Spanish Wikipedia, and active accounts on the German and Polish versions. I have left messages on the talk pages of the German and Polish Wikipedia users, asking if they are also using the username Leviathan on the English Wikipedia. Absent objection from these users or another affected party, I'd like to request consideration be given to deleting the inactive user Leviathan on the English Wikipedia and renaming my account to that name. All that having been said, if that's absolutely out of the question, or if there is objection, I would be satisfied with the username - Leviathan -, although slightly less so. Thanks for your time, and I am perfectly happy to wait however long you deem necessary to allow the other users a chance to reply on their talk pages. Chris 23:05, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
- There's not a whole lot we lowly bureacrats can do -- you have to track down a developer and convince him/her to do the switch. →Raul654 00:31, July 25, 2005 (UTC)
- Is it possible to rename Deltaromeo to DeltaRomeo, with only capitalization changing? Thanks! -- dr 18:48, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
-
- Just log out and create a new account yourself. No need to list your name here unless you have an extensive edit history that you want to preserve. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 21:36, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
- I recently registered .Usman at the English Wikepedia. Presently i have no edits, user page or talk page.
I would appreciate it if i can be assigned the user name Usman. The name Usman is registered at the english wikipedia though it does not have any Edit history, User Page, or Talk Page. I looked around at some other projects but the user name Usman does not exist on (Wikibooks, Wikiqoute, Wikisource, Wikispecies, Wikinews, Commons). It is not being used at any other major language WikipediasFrench, Italian, Japanese, Dutch, German, Swedish, Polish, Portuguese
Usman is registered at the english wiktionary but with no Contributions, User Page, Talk Page and at Spanish Wikipedia with no Page edits,User Page or Talk Page
Since it is simply a matter of allowing me the use of a name which was registered by someone else but was not once used to make a single edit, i am sure there will not be any problems about user attributions. Note: this has previously been done as well.(Though this is simpler. There are no user attributions to be changed)
Thanks in advace. i'll keep my edits as anonymous until this is cleared.
Usman
- Due to technical limitations of the software, there is no easy means by which we can delete an inactive account. Sorry. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 21:35, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
- Please rename user pationl to patio
- Too bad, I could not find this in the list anymore, so I thought it was no longer in use. I changed my signature via preference. Thanks for trying! --Patio 08:57, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
- I have been told by another user that my username, 卫weizhe哲 could be problematic because of the Chinese characters, so I am requesting a name change to simply "WeiZhe". Also, is it possible to merge User:Gregw824 with this new profile? I wasn't smart and created a new profile. Thanks. 卫weizhe哲 12:17, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
-
- This is me to prove I am also User:Gregw824. If the two can't be merged, no problem, thanks. Gregw824 12:31, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
- We can only move your account to a name that has never been used. I presume you still want your edits moved from
- This is me to prove I am also User:Gregw824. If the two can't be merged, no problem, thanks. Gregw824 12:31, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
卫weizhe哲 to WeiZhe - I will attempt this but it may fail because of the chinese characters. Secretlondon 21:05, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
-
-
-
- In fact I won't because you have 13 edits on 卫weizhe哲 and many more on Gregw824. The greg account also predates the 卫weizhe哲 one by about 9 months. Secretlondon 21:18, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
-
-
- I had no idea, bureaucrats had the ability to change usernames. Well, there is a provision to change usernames, but is it possible to merge my username User:Guptadeepak with my other username User:Deepak gupta? Thanks --IncMan 02:40, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
- I'm afraid not. We can only move one account to a currently unused name. You can try and contact a developer but I don't think it's trivial to do. Secretlondon 21:38, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
- If I could be renamed to User:Robert Nagle, that would be great. I use that name on every other project. Rjn945 09:28, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
- Done. Secretlondon 22:10, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
- Please rename User:JohnLeach to User:BlackJack in view of certain people recognising me when I don't want them to. Thanks very much. --Jack 15:19, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
- Done. Secretlondon 22:28, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

- Done. Secretlondon 22:42, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
- Please rename me to User:Nihilistic Plunger. Wikipedia Username 03:43, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
- There's already a User:Nihilistic Plunger (although they are inactive) hence I can't rename you. Is there another name you'd prefer? Secretlondon 22:17, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
- Rename me to User:The Fascist Chicken Wikipedia Username 18:07, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

- I renamed Rajanr to Rajanr_imposter following a discussion at the Help desk and emails from someone claiming to be the real Rajanr to the Board's address. Angela. 00:44, August 11, 2005 (UTC)
- Greetings! I make periodic contributions and editions to Wikipedia. A little while ago, I requested a redirect from the user/name I created originally (and now inactive), Wikipedia Username, to my current alias, E Pluribus Anthony. Thanks! Is it possible, though, to change all instances where my former user name appears to my current one too? If not, can all prior instances be deleted? One nagging problem I have is the many instances of the former which I can find on the Web when doing a search for my name, which I want to mitigate. Your assistance is profoundly appreciated. Merci! E Pluribus Anthony 08:24, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
- No and no. We cannot rename an account except to a nonexistance name. Nor can we delete those edits. The only thing we can offer is to re-attribute them to a name of your choosing which has not yet been registered. →Raul654 08:44, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Hi there; thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Great! OK, can you re-attribute my older edits (under the username 'Wikipedia Username') to the following username, which I'm certain is not registered:
- E Pluribus Anthony redux
- Let me know if anything else is needed. Merci!
- Done. Warofdreams 13:42, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

- Please rename User:Malathion to User:Ryan Delaney and transfer sysop status. I don't have a particulary urgent need for this, but when I created the account I used an old/juvenile nickname I used on computer games, and I didn't know that I would be taking the project seriously. --Ryan Delaney 02:21, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- The above edit was by me. Please perform the rename if possible. Thanks. --malathion talk 02:38, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

- Please rename me back to the old form of my nick, sans "h" ie. "Juxo" as I'm trying to recooperate from multiple-nickonality-disorder. I have already made this change on "my" wiki, Consumerium and need it to be done in Wiktionary as well. Pls. note that I used to be for some period of time User:Juxo and that account still exists because of the previous username change. Sorry, for the hassle. --Juxho 21:38, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

- User:Baphomet. is damaging Wikipedia: he his trying to label Religious articles as Superstition (from a POV view of positivism, that he calls Science). At the article Reincarnation he just went on to add to category "Superstition" and later on without discussion put a POV msg in the article. Please see the discussion page between both of us Talk:Reincarnation#Superstition.
- Through the use of a Culture created by extremism in Science, he is clearly trying to do the job that the Inquisition did in the Middle Ages in a Culture created by extremism in Religion. He is damaging Wikipedia in a subtle invious way!

- I'd like to have my account, User:WikidCool renamed to User:WikidSmaht. I was trying it out (in signature) for a while, but now I'm pretty sure. I want to ask, though, would it be possible for me to keep control of the new account at the old name? Or even, don't make one and let me recreate it? I don't intend to use it as an active sockpuppet or anything (I would keep it clearly labelled as my old account), but I'd hate to see it just be there, blocked for all eternity. -- WikidCool 22:44, September 7, 2005 (UTC)
- Done. As for your old account, if you don't intend to use it, why shouldn't it be blocked? — Dan | Talk 00:16, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- I said I don't intend to use it as an active sockpuppet, i.e., it wouldn't be my main account, and I wouldn't use it to pretend I'm more than one editor. Frankly, I just don't like the idea of my original name being defunct in that way, I find it inconvenient and unsettling. I suppose I could have just created WikidSmaht as a second account, but since I wanted it to be my main name, I had a desire to keep even my limited edit history associated with it. Whatever. I have no intention of starting an argument about the issue. I feel the way I feel and if this is the price I have to pay for the name change, I guess I'll deal. Thanks for responding to the request in a timely manner. And for moving my User and Talk pages; that isn't automated is it? -- WikidSmaht 02:45, September 8, 2005 (UTC)
- Done. As for your old account, if you don't intend to use it, why shouldn't it be blocked? — Dan | Talk 00:16, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

- Please change Acid to "Hurricane Devon." I checked, it's not used. I like this name better. Acid remindes me of the rude person I was.

- Please change my username Gobbles to (my real initials) "TDM". I used to use this username on other sites, but since it is used by Gobbles security, I want to reduce any confusion about it. I have several edits I would like to keep associated with myself. Sorry for the trouble.

- Sorry, but you'll have to specify a non-existent account name. Please go through the instructions above. User:Nichalp/sg 10:52, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- It doesn't exist, i am the one who moved my user page to User:Passive, i thought that this would rename my account :s .. --Amr Hassan 10:54, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- I moved it back, but i can't remove the article Passive so it redirects to AmrHassan.. can you rename my username now? --Amr Hassan 11:18, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- Done: I've renamed AmrHassan to Passive. Sorry for the misunderstanding, the link was blue. If you want to prevent impersonation from your old account, you would need to recreate the old one and get an admin to block it. User:Nichalp/sg 11:33, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

- Hi all. Hoping that the line about 6800 is correct, please change my name to User:Sam Korn. I am a little tired of a silly mistake made nine months ago... I currently have 6227. Cheers, [[smoddy]] 17:57, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

- user:GordonWattsDotCom asked me (at my user talk page) to rename him to GordonWatts - in response to my own suggestion. Ironically, this will be my last username change for the foreseeable future. Uncle Ed 02:48, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
- Since I seem to be incompetent at doing username changes, would someone please check that I did this right (for once)? Uncle Ed 03:09, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

- Please rename user:EnduranceFan back to user:Trollderella, per poll regarding the renaming that I did a couple of weeks ago. I failed to block the old account, and some users (possibly as a joke) logged into and used the old account. This will require developer intervention: I left a note for user:Tim Starling. Uncle Ed 11:50, September 9, 2005 (UTC)

- Never mind. Tim came on #wikipedia and told me how to do it. Uncle Ed 22:42, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
- Please change myself, User:Protactin to User:OrrC. I just managed to create the (password-less) OrrC user, however I imagine this would now need to be deleted/renamed first. Thanks. » Christopher | Talk | 21:53, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
- At present we can't merge the two accounts. Please specify a blank account: Use: Special:Listusers to check if a username is available. User:Nichalp/sg 05:45, September 13, 2005 (UTC)
