Dxmember619 → FriendlyUser123

 * Current name:
 * Requested name: ( [ rename user ])
 * Reason: Reason for requested renaming. Dxmember619 13:08, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

The reason I wish to change my user name is that without my knowledge, others discovered my user name and abused/created posts in an attempt to discredit/incriminate me.
 * Comment How would renaming solve the problem? If other users have discovered your password then it's a trivial matter to change it. On the other hand, if you want to disown the contributions record (and I wouldn't blame you, looking at it), then simply register a new account and request deletion of this one. Sheffield Steel talkstalk 19:34, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Passwords had nothing to do with this. Renaming solves this particular problem because it changes the username without loss of contribution history.  Deletion of accounts does not happen on Wikimedia, and in fact this kind of renaming has actually happened to another user before.  If this account does get renamed, it is also suggested that you request deletion of your old user and talk pages so that it looks like you've invoked your right to vanish. —O (说 • 喝) 19:52, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the explanation. Sorry for any disruption. Sheffield Steel talkstalk 20:13, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * You don't seem to have any contributions worth keeping - your old userpage (started by you) was an attack page which you moved into the mainspace as Bumnose. Your other contributions are childish nonsense eg your edits to Estelle and hockey. If you didn't write these then someone has your password and renaming will make no difference.

 * Current name:

The account "KissL" was registered by me as a doppelganger account at a time when renames were not possible, so it will need to be renamed first (see next section, to be added in a few minutes). Obviously, I would like to re-register "Kissl" as a doppelganger right after the rename. The best would be to just exchange the two usernames if that is technically possible.

 * Current name:
 * Requested name: ( [ rename user ])

My account has already been renamed once, on April 12 (although it doesn't show up in archive 23). I have given it some thought, and I really like "Dorftrottel", which is German for "village idiot". It's not at all private, but distinctive enough. However, should that name not appear like a good idea, it's not a big deal. I would also take "User:+1", or "User:Eason" (because of "use reason"; but I'm afraid that it could be seen as inflammatory by a few and so I didn't request that name). Or if all else fails, "User:Ollback" (not really, of course). — aldebaer⁠ 03:21, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
