The New Squeaky → JacobS

 * Reason: It honestly just sounds odd to me. I was younger when I made this name, and honestly, I'm tired of it, and I think it may be mistaken as derivative as well. Jacob S. grafitti 05:10, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Hzoons → H14

 * Reason: Anonymization, getting rid of (abbreviated) personal name that is similar to personal e-mail adress. Hans (talk) 15:57, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 16:00, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * There are barely-existing accounts of this name on two other sites (click "new" above). Are you happy to go ahead on the basis that you may not be able to usurp these accounts? --Dweller (talk) 16:13, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's fine. The Japanese account is fine and it may be possible I once made that Dutch account myself on an older e-mail adress, or something. But it's allright if I couldn't usurp them. Thanks. Hans (talk) 16:18, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I checked, the nlwiki is mine, can log in to that, will try to merge them afterwards if possible, I think. Thanks. Hans (talk) 16:19, 13 July 2009 (UTC)


 * ✅ I suggest you claim the SUL as soon as possible. --Dweller (talk) 16:24, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. The Hzoons-account (both global as individual) seems to still exist, I searched through a lot of pages on how to get it all to H14, but I can't figure it out. What should I do? I claimed the H14 nlwiki as mentioned above, but I still have a hzoons nlwiki with some edits. I actually want the hzoons to stop existing and it to become just H14. Sorry for the question but I really don't get what to do now. Thanks. Hans (talk) 16:52, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, you need to request renaming at every single wiki to achieve this. On those where you made no contributions, you can probably just recreate new ones automatically (nothing to reattribute to you) but the others need to be renamed manually at the equivalent of our Changing username or Changing username/SUL pages.

 * Reason: I mostly contribute in the greek wikipedia.

Regarding the fact of the listing in spam list is only because i did use the organization name. As I did mention before it is unjustified to blacklist the sit. It is still unclear why a first time entry into Wiki is causing a spam anyway. To avoid any further discrimination i requested to use my real name so i can not be accused anymore for playing wrong.

I've opened the global account recently, and an account called Gökçe Yörük was opened automatically. That is, now I have two accounts in here. But I did't use Gökçe Yörük and open any pages.
