The default message does not indicate that the username is reserved for a queued rename request. Please create this message with. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 22:44, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Is this the only instance where a username rename will be queued? Nakon  23:50, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I think this message only appears when trying to create an account with a username that is reserved for a user that has requested a rename via the Special:GlobalRenameRequest queue. This was created in 156488 (and moved during AuthManager implementation in 284499). I'm not aware of any other rename queues. Pinging for confirmation. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 03:06, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Perhaps  ? —  xaosflux  Talk 02:17, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * That would serve my purpose (allowing WP:ACC to know that the account can't be created due to a pending rename); however, MediaWiki:Userexists (local) and MediaWiki:Centralauth-account-exists (global) are for existing users, so I don't think the message is shown for existing users. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 03:06, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ I put in the "or" version - a brief review suggests this should appear for rename oeprations, and that the centralauth-account-exists should appear for create account operations - let me know if this is not OK for your requested change. —  xaosflux  Talk 14:05, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
