User talk:Bouwmeester (usurped)

Request for usurpation
I'm not comfortable giving up this user name at this time. It is also my family name.

As such, I register my objection to the usurpation. Thank you.


 * Thanks for your polite answer. I understand and respect your view; I would like to ask though, if maybe you are willing to change your name into something related to 'Bouwmeester', for example 'Mr./Ms. Bouwmeester' or 'The Bouwmeester'. In that way, you are still recognizable as someone from Bouwmeester-family, but the advantage is that I can use 'Bouwmeester'; I need that exact username to be able to have an unified global login (also called 'single user login', or SUL). It also seems like you haven't made edits on the English Wikipedia - I absolutely don't disrespect you for that - but I have the idea - please tell me if I am wrong - that you aren't an active user. It might seem strange that I - a new user with just a few edits - asks this from you, but I can always try ;-)
 * If you agree, we can start a regular user-rename procedure, which I am willing to help you with. Draadbaard (talk) 16:06, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello, Bouwmeester. A request has been made at Changing username/Usurpations to usurp, or "take over", your username because another user would like to use it to edit. The changing username guideline allows a username that is not being actively used to be usurped if the user is given an opportunity to object and does not do so.

If you have an email set in your preferences, you should be getting an email from a bureaucrat or changing username clerk explaining how to consent or object to this process.

If you do not object to being renamed to a new username in order for another user to use the name you currently have, please log in and post a reply here saying so (you may also tell us what username you would like to be renamed to, or we will provide you with a generic one).

If you do nothing : the request may be filled shortly, and your account will be moved to a generic username. You may request that it be moved to a new username of your choice at any time.

If you object to being renamed : please log in and make an edit to this page clearly stating that you object to usurpation. Any objection on your part will prevent usurpation.

Please note that even if your current username is usurped, you can still edit and your data will not be lost; your preferences, watchlist, and other user settings will be transferred to a new username.

Thank you for your time. Draadbaard (talk) 14:59, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
