Welcome!
Hello, NewUrbanist, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. - Eureka Lott 15:30, 10 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, Eureka! Yes, I have multiple accounts, but would prefer the first one be deleted (which I know is not possible). This will be my only account moving forward (NewUrbanist). Is it possible to change the previous username to something less identifying, and just let it sit unused? Any random series of numbers and letters would do, as I have no intention of using the account. Thank you! NewUrbanist (talk) 15:33, 10 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your understanding our policies. Please see Courtesy vanishing for instructions on how to request a renaming of your other account.


 * Also, if you are one of the authors of the study you cited, please be sure you're aware of the Conflict of interest guideline, particularly the WP:SELFCITE section. - Eureka Lott 15:42, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
 * This is very helpful - thanks again! NewUrbanist (talk) 15:46, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I've filed the courtesy vanish request and edited my own response to you above to remove the previous account name. May I remove the previous account name for your talk post? I will not do so without your permission, per the Talk page guidelines. Thanks again. NewUrbanist (talk) 16:18, 10 June 2023 (UTC)


 * I removed the mention. Please let me know if you have other questions. - Eureka Lott 16:47, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
