 * reason : I'm sysop @ French Wikipédia and have more contribs than him, who have parted since one year. Thanks --Sereine (talk) 00:31, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Normally, this usurpation would be denied, as the editor in question has over five thousand edits. In the past, unifying usernames cross-project has allowed disregard for newness of editors, and edits by the requested username. However, there are five thousand edits; this might be more than allowed. So a bureaucrat would need to make a pretty big discretion ruling here. It's also very similar to my username. XD seresin | wasn't he just...? 00:50, 17 March 2008 (UTC)


 * ❌ - the English Wikipedia has no policy that allows the renaming of accounts that have made GFDL significant edits in good faith without them agreeing to this. That position may need to be reviewed should proposals for unified login be implemented. Until such a time however, I cannot perform this request. WjBscribe 00:58, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, WjB, SUL is underway : In a few days, this feature will be made available to sysops (hence to Serein). Would you reconsider her request ? Serein has more than 12K edits on fr: :)
 * NicDumZ ~  14:00, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Well SUL has been about to happen many times and hasn't resulted in much. But I simply do not have this community's approval to perform this sort of rename. If SUL does start to happen, it will need a discussion here about how far the community feels bureaucrats should go to accommodate these sorts of request. I do agree that should SUL happen, Serein has the best claim to this name. WjBscribe 16:13, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd like to point out a problem caused by this name conflict. As you may know, in some wikis such as de: transwikis are made when articles are translated, to keep the original history. Hence, contributions of the actual Serein from en are listed in Sereine's contributions in those projects, under the name "Serein", which she owns in every project but en:). This causes history problems because the contributions list of the user Serein in those wikis contain in fact edits of both users. Here's an example. IMHO, it's another reason to support the usurpation (which will, anyway, definitely have to be done some day). PieRRoMaN 21:14, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * There really isn't much point arguing about - its not something I can do. See m:Help:Unified login: "If you want to usurp an account on another wiki, and that account has edits, you should make a request to a bureaucrat on the problem wiki. Subject to local policy, the bureaucrat may be able to rename the target account." The local policies of this project do not allow usurpation in these circumstances. That doesn't mean it never will, but at the moment this request is outside my discretion. WjBscribe 21:20, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, I understand the problem. Thanks :-) --Sereine (talk) 21:50, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Micke-sv → Micke
I have previously made the same request here: My request was not fullfilled since the target user made an edit 8 days after my request was filed. I think however thar circumstanses has changed with the unified login, and en.wikipedia is the only conflict that has not been resolved (I have the global account Micke). The target name has made only nine edits, the last one in mid may 2007, and I think that it is unfair that this user who doesen't seem interested in contributing to Wikipedia should stand in the way of my unified account on the largest wiki, with only nine edits, when I have 12655 contributions in 24 projects (I am sysop in two of these projects) with this username.

 * ❌ I sympathise, but the English Wikipedia currently has no policy that allows the renaming of accounts that have made GFDL significant edits in good faith without them agreeing to this. That position is being reviewed (SUL/Consultation on renames) given the progress of the implementation of unified login. However, until the community decides that such requests should be performed, they lie outside bureaucrat discretion on this project. WjBscribe 18:55, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I know I'm not going to be the only one requesting this (and I'm probably not the first since SUL was implemented), is there somewhere we can save these SUL-related requests pending a new consensus on the matter? For easy and speedy processing once a new consensus is hammered out (as I'm sure it will be), I mean. MiCkE 19:07, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I tried to usurp this username in January but the target username said "NO". The target username has only this edit. Now I use my name in Unified login and I would like to use my name here too.

 * Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this, but I would note that usurpation requested, which is the message left on the page to notify of a usurpation request states that if people object to being renamed, they can just make an edit. If such an objecting edit has been made, how is this bureaucrat's discretion?  --Tim4christ17 talk 08:21, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I note that this request would be unnecessary if I wouldn't had try to usurp this username in January because the target user wouldn't have any edits at this time, so I could unify this name. And I would like to ask about the status of my request. Samaten (talk) 11:00, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

I request the usurpation for SUL, so I can use my global user name on the english wikipedia too. I have already a unified account named User:GDK. I had already requested to usurp this account earlier, which was denied, as the current user User:GDK has made only two edit ever (contribs), of which only one was in an article and is IMHO not copyrightable because trivial, and thus does not require attribution. Would you please reconsider my usurp request. --Gunter.krebs (talk) 09:42, 28 March 2008 (UTC) Alexfusco<sup style="color:green;">5 20:14, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

The current owner of the "Whiteknight" account has made fewer then 10 edits, all of which are very minor or were made on talk pages. I'm known as "Whiteknight" on most other projects including on en.wikibooks (my home wiki where I'm a bureaucrat and checkuser), meta, chapcom.wikimedia, and others. As evidence of the confusion that this situation causes, notice that on User talk:Whiteknight most of the messages there are supposed to be for me (except for the two requests for usurpation that I left on that users's page, and one other message) SUL appears to be live as of this morning, at least for admins, and this account is preventing me from unifying my login. I also plan to keep and to unify the account User:Wknight8111 as well (I use that as a bot account on other wikis), but I can recreate the account if needed. If there are any questions I can be contacted via email or on my Wikibooks user talk page. --Whiteknight (talk) (books) 14:34, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * While there are only few edits, and you own the global account, the edits are (IMO) significant, as well as very recent. seresin ( ¡? ) 22:53, 5 April 2008 (UTC)


 * ❌ - user has edited for some time, including recently. Current policy doesn't allow me to rename them without their agreement, sorry. WjBscribe 18:09, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Karlburgdorf → Karlburgdorf

 * Reason: Your software modified my initial user name by making the first letter upper-case. Since my user name is a combination of my first and last name, the modification is undesirable (it looks wrong) unless you could make the B also in upper-case. I tried creating a new account and put a space inbetween (Karl Burgdorf) assuming your software will always capitalise the first letter, but the create user page complained because it is too similar to my current user name. So now I am stuck since I presume any combination of my first and last name will produce the same response. Karlburgdorf (talk) 15:16, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

CURRENT_NAME → REQUESTED_NAME
Hello, I have tried to set up an account at home to enable me to Podcast lectures at university which I missed due to a back problem. When I log in at uni under the username JLDavies, and am told that a username JlDavies exists, I am unsure whether this was just a mistake of mine, (where I often find that for some reason I tend to be a bit soft on the shift key for capital letters)/ or whether I am already logged on with that as a mistake. I need to be set up to Podcast for the first time in 2 days time! My new username, if it turns out to be another Davies individual, will be JulesLDavies, same password, to prevent complication.....after a nasty computer virus at home left me with so many password changes to be totally computer secure (sorted out prior to attempt to Podcast - don't worry!)that I even forget which password sorts which aspect of my home sytem myself at times! My home system is totally rebuilt/better anti-virus/password now-prior to entry to any new webpage/finally happy! Problem was trojan Horse backdoor something (I'm sure you guys know about how nasty they can be!-a warning for others if you don't!) My Email is the uni one, which is DAVJL005@students.unisa.edu.au. They have a far more sophisticated sytem with anti-virus ware than I as a student can afford at home. Nonetheless, once I have an account, and can cut and paste the Podcast link, if I can acces it at home, I have written down both usernames, whichever you choose to register me under. If it is more secure to send me a new password/username under the circumstances, please include a change password link, so that I can do so to make it one that I will remember!

When you have more edits, you will be able to unify your login and create a global account - you can still create a global account without operating all accounts by that name if you have the "home wiki" account. I don't know if you will eventually be able to have this name on enwiki - at the moment our policy doesn't allow that but this may change in future. <strong style="font-variant:small-caps">WJBscribe (talk) 03:48, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Gopiwada, located in Bhandara Tehsil of Bhandara District Maharashtra (India), is a very unique small village. It has a population of approximately 2500. It has produced remarkable persons including two Ph.D.s, several masters and bachelors. People of Gopiwada dream of well being and prosperity of every member of this village, and believe: (1) that if you dream hard, you will see it's not a dream, it's a reality; (2) that if you want to achieve your dreams, there will be obstacles, but 99% of the time, you can work around the obstacles, and see your dreams transforming into reality; (3) in not expressing frustration, but working on same to find a way out; (4) in being not frustrated, but motivated, as always we had been; (5) in seeing dreams and turning them into reality; (6) in being truthful to ourselves; and (7) in motivation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shende98 (talk • contribs) 18:27, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Siarraquinn → Xo.honey

 * Reason: Reason for requested renaming. I don't want my real name shown. Siarraquinn (talk) 02:42, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * bear in mind that being renamed creates a permanent link between your new and old name in the rename log. As you haven't yet made any edits, it may be better from a privacy point of view if you create a new account instead of getting your current one renamed. <strong style="font-variant:small-caps">WJBscribe (talk) 03:54, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

I'm and I think there's no one with my nickname around the web, in fact I guess thath User:Minibill was mine, but I can't remember the password(and it has no e-mail, so no e-mail retrival) 87.4.236.85 (talk) 20:37, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * although there is a user called Minibill on enwiki, there is no MiniBill (usernames are case specific). If you unify your global account - by going to Special:MergeAccount while signed in to itwiki - you should find that you can then access enwiki as MiniBill using the same password. <strong style="font-variant:small-caps">WJBscribe (talk) 03:58, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
