Chili14 → Wiregrass91

 * Current name: Chili14 (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Wiregrass91 (change username)
 * Reason: My reason for renaming the requested name is because I decided that the old username was too long. Also, I want to be known as something else than "Chili". Thank you very much.  Chi li  23:18, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
 * ❌ - your reason does not make sense - the new name is longer. Warofdreams talk 16:41, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Ccool2ax → Chris.

 * Current name: Ccool2ax (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Chris. (change username)

 * Note: there is already a User:Chris Ans e ll  22:53, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * That's Chris. with a period on the end. I don't believe it exists. →Bobby ← 22:57, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

RAFT_Program → HMortorff

 * Current name: RAFT_Program (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: HMortorff (change username)

 * Quoting from the instructions at the top of the page: Please note that renaming users puts a large load on the database. Please do not request a rename unless it is necessary. Are you certain that you want to permanently change your name? We may not entertain additional requests from your new account in the future based on a vacillating fancy. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  05:07, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ For security reasons, you have to request the rename from the account that you want renamed. If your account is currently blocked, place the unblock template on your talk page with a note pointing here, and an admin will unblock you so you can come and sign here with the account. Essjay  ( Talk )  07:45, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Mark us Street
When i tried to log in my above user name was not recognised. Do I have to re-register.


 * You should be logging in with your new username; please make sure you are spelling it correctly, as usernames are case-sensitive. Essjay   ( Talk )  01:30, 8 December 2006 (UTC)


 * ❌ per above. Warofdreams talk 14:41, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Korpios → Logicdemon
Request rescinded. I apologize for the trouble. - Korpios 16:43, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
 * ❌ per above. Warofdreams talk 20:49, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

debbakersta → 501362256
❌ I'm denying this request. The desired username could very well be mistaken for a phone number in some country/region. Please choose another name. Thanks! =Nichalp  «Talk»=  03:35, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Current name: debbakersta (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: 501362256 (change username)
 * Reason: registered before I was given format to use for GE Healthcare. Debbakersta 21:07, 8 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, I don't quite understand the reason given; if you're planning to continue to use this account, I'm not sure we can do this rename, as it would certainly be difficult for other users to interact with. Essjay   ( Talk )  03:34, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Naru Admin → Naru Chan
❌ Username exists =Nichalp   «Talk»=  06:32, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Roebot → Robot

 * Current name: Roebot (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Robot (change username)
 * Reason: The username Robot does not appear to be in use. It does not seem to violate the guidelines, as I intend to use it only as an account for a bot (thus its use is not misleading). -- Roebot 06:20, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * ❌ Username exists =Nichalp   «Talk»=  06:33, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Moumine_70 → Moumine

 * Current name: Moumine70 (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Moumine (change username)
 * Reason: To harmonize my username here and on French wikipedia where I have my main account (recently changed by a bureaucrat there.) Gee, Moumine is already used by someone else here. What should I do ? -- Moumine70 14:45, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * ❌ You'd have to choose another username I'm afraid. The en Moumine here is also well known. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  14:52, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, sorry for this wrong request. Too bad for the Single Log in. Have a nice Sunday, Moumine70 14:57, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Same to you too. :) =Nichalp   «Talk»=  16:42, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Stellertony → Tonei
❌. The username Tonei exists. Please choose another username. =Nichalp  «Talk»=  16:39, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Current name: Stellertony (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Tonei (change username)
 * Reason: I am changing the spelling of my name for various reasons, including to make it seem less gendered, and I would like to use this name on Wikipedia. I apologize for the existance of the desired username, as I started trying to change it before I found this article... I hope it's not too much of an inconvenience... -- Stellertony the Bookcrosser 11:30, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

CarmenWorld
Current name: CarmenWorld Requested name: CarmensWorld Reason: Sorry, I missed the "s" in my user name. I want it to read CarmensWorld. Thank you.

Please use the template. Using the template provides quick-links that greatly benefit the bureaucrat performing the request and reduce the time required to do so dramatically. Please see the instructions at the top of the page for more information, fill out the template as shown, and resubmit your request. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated. Essjay  ( Talk )  06:49, 8 December 2006 (UTC)


 * ❌ per above. Warofdreams talk 06:00, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Deathrocker → Glimmer

 * Current name: Deathrocker (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Glimmer (change username)
 * Reason: I'm tired of being tied to just the Deathrock article, and no-longer have as much of an interest in its related articles. I'd like something new, and more independent please. -- Deathrocker 07:37, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * ❌ - User:Glimmer already exists. Warofdreams talk 06:00, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Travisbuchanan → riverroadkid
❌ target username exists. Please choose another username. =Nichalp  «Talk»=  17:24, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Current name: Travisbuchanan (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: riverroadkid (change username)
 * Reason: i dont want anyone that uses this site to be able to see my name, please fulfill my request. -- Travisbuchanan 11:49, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Cher is a godess → ILOVEMEJ

 * Current name: Cher is a godess (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: ILOVEMEJ (change username)
 * Reason: People Know who I am with this account now and I'd like it changed. -- Cher is a godess 16:08, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ Username changes are not performed to help users in disrupting Wikipedia; the fact that your disruptive intent has been noted is not basis for being renamed. Essjay  ( Talk )  01:51, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Meithal → J.M. Tavernier

 * Current name: Meithal (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Tavernier J.M. Tavernier (Tavernier change username)
 * Reason: For avoid conflicts with single user (hope i wont need to ask the same thing on all the wikipédia, will I ?) Meithal 11:45, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ Requesting it here only gets you renamed on this wiki, not on the others. It might be better for you to wait until Single Login if you want to merge all of your accounts. Angela . 11:53, 5 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Au contraire; it would probably speed up the merge process if you've got all your accounts under the same name, with the same email address set in preferences; this allows the first pass to find them and associate them all. 164.11.204.56 08:00, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

StanVman → stanvman

 * Current name: StanVman (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: stanvman (change username)
 * Reason: It always takes me at least 5 failed logins to remember to capitalize the S and the V. -- StanVman 20:10, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ It is not possible to have a username that starts with a lowercase letter. Essjay  ( Talk )  03:11, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Open poppyseed → Open_sesame

 * Current name: Open poppyseed (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Open_sesame (change username)
 * Reason: First choice for name was open sesame, but that was taken, so I went to open poppyseed (which I consider a close relative of the sesame seed). Except I overlooked the underscore completely, so I wish to have my original preference w/underscore. -- Open poppyseed 00:49, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ The MediaWiki software does not recognize the underscore as a valid character for usernames; it is a part of URLs to denote a space, so the software does not regard it as anything more than a normal space. There is no difference between "Open sesame" and "Open_sesame"; both are considered the same username, so it is not possible to rename to that name, as it already exists. Essjay  ( Talk )  03:20, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Travisbuchanan → Yourfriendsam

 * Current name: Travisbuchanan (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Yourfriendsam (change username)
 * Reason: I do not like having my real name displayed on this site for everyone to see; please acknowledge and fulfill my request. -- 24.255.77.99 02:30, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ You must make your request while logged in as the username that is to be changed, for security purposes. Essjay  ( Talk )  03:28, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Deathrocker → Gold

 * Current name: Deathrocker (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Gold (change username)
 * Reason: I'm tired of being tied to just the Deathrock article, and no-longer have as much of an interest in its related articles. I'd like something new, and more independent please. -- Deathrocker 02:54, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ Username already exists. Essjay  ( Talk )  03:30, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't already exist, acording to this. - Deathrocker 05:16, 13 December 2006 (UTC)


 * It does according to this, which has been around since the beginning of Wikipedia, unlike the new user log, which doesn't record accounts created before the extension was written last year. It's confirmed definitively by the renameuser extension, which threw an error when I tried the rename; I can provide a screenshot if you're still skeptical. Essjay   ( Talk )  05:22, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Mrnaveed → p3npower

 * Current name: Mrnaveed (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: p3npower (change username)
 * Reason: This current name contain my name. I do not want my name to come on editing article. -- 86.134.9.48 04:05, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ You must make your request while logged in under the account that will be renamed. Essjay  ( Talk )  02:09, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

USER-cacophony → V0dka

 * Current name: USER-cacophony (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: V0dka (change username)
 * Reason: Trying to standardize my name across the different websites I'm registered at so I don't have to remember a different username for each site. Also, User:USER-cacophony is confusing and looks bad. -- cacophony ◄► 04:37, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ Username already exists. Essjay  ( Talk )  02:17, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Gingerdjoseph → victoryisminexxx

 * Current name: Gingerdjoseph (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: victoryisminexxx (change username)
 * Reason: I'm a new user and just realized that everyone else has nicknames - I feel very vulnerable (as does the user above!) with my full name. Sorry about that! New to Wiki- Thanks!. -- 63.236.238.2 23:49, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ Requests must be made while logged in; requests from IP addresses are not accepted. Essjay  ( Talk )  00:06, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

OCCAdmin → OCC01
It was suggested I rename: "Hello! Calling yourself admin is not a good idea as some editors could mistake you for an administrator. You can go to WP:CHU and request a change of username before you are blocked for possible impersonation. Regards, (aeropagitica) 23:10, 7 December 2006 (UTC) I agree. Alternatively, if you really want to keep this username you should put a note on your user page clarifying that you are not a Wikipedia administrator. Wikipedia policy forbids usernames that imply administrative status on Wikipedia. (I'm sure you were unaware of this and didn't intend to mislead anyone.)--Srleffler 02:08, 8 December 2006 (UTC)"

Please rename to "OCC01"

Please use the template. Using the template provides quick-links that greatly benefit the bureaucrat performing the request and reduce the time required to do so dramatically. Please see the instructions at the top of the page for more information, fill out the template as shown, and resubmit your request. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated. =Nichalp  «Talk»=  15:57, 8 December 2006 (UTC)


 * ❌ per above. Warofdreams talk 13:33, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

James_Maxx → James_Maxx™

 * Current name: James_Maxx (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: James_Maxx™ (change username)
 * Reason: I want my username to be unique from most usernames on Wikipedia, and I feel with a "™" in it, it will make it such. And as you can see, my signature has the "™" on it. -- Jลмєs Mลxx ™  Msg me  03:02, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ Your username is already unique inasmuch as there's nobody else with the same or similar username. There are two important points I'd like to inform you about: 1) using symbols, or long sequences of numbers (see the request two threads above) or anything along those lines, makes it difficult for people to reach you (or at least it makes it harder), since most will not be able to type immediately the "™" symbol that you want included. If this were to be done, you are almost  certain to get complaints about it at some point along the line.  2) You already know this, since you're doing it right now, but still, I thought it would be worth stressing that you can include the "™" in your signature by editing your Preferences, without the need to include it in your username. Believe me, that's a much more recommendable course of action. Redux 11:41, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Donausten → Gilgamesh

 * Current name: Donausten (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Gilgamesh (change username)
 * Reason: The article is that of a nude model, a close friend of mine, whom I help out as a favor, but I do not want my name associated for personal and business purposes. -- Don Austen
 * ❌ - we already have a User:Gilgamesh. Warofdreams talk 02:06, 19 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Which is also not a good thing. Gilgamesh is a real historical figure (a Sumerian king), and we should avoid usernames using the names of real people of prominence.  Redux 13:08, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

QLDer86 → OzWestWingFan

 * Current name: QLDer86 (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: OzWestWingFan (change username)
 * Reason: I really don't like my original username-. -- QLDer86 08:12, 19 December 2006 (UTC)


 * ❌ If it's just a question of not liking your username, and considering that you have only 35 edits with it, of which 16 are to the account's own user page and one to post this request, which means that you only have 18 edits for everything else on Wikipedia and those are distributed in just 4 articles and 2 talk pages, you can simply create a new account with the name that you want, then turn the user page of your previous account into a redirect to your new account, or post a note to the fact that you have changed your identity. Redux 18:37, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Qzzz → っ (review previous change)

 * Current name: Qzzz (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: っ (change username)

There is no Changing Username Review, so I'm bringing this up on this page.

This user was forced to change their username due to a misguided en.wikipedia policy that previously stated that non-latin usernames are not permitted. However, this is the same user across many wikimedia projects:

Requests_for_permissions

Note that this username is perfectly correct on this user's home wiki (ja.wikipedia).

Consensus on meta between several wiki communites has it that this forced name change should not happen. Bureaucrats and stewards on other wikis have stated that they are loath to accept it. When Single User Login is introduced, the SUL system and policy will -among many things, as part of its normal function- enforce reinstatement of this username on en.wikipedia in software. We are in the process of revising en.wikipedia policy to bring it in line.

In the mean time, the old username should be reinstated as quickly as possible, if only because otherwise the SUL-changeover will make a change harder at a later date. (IIRC it would create a new account っ, but leave all edits attributed to Qzzz, if that account still existed at that time).

I think that we should not accept any further requests based on the now hopefully deprecated non-latin name policy, as per the request by Aphaia to all wiki-communities on meta.

See also: discussion at Wikipedia talk:Username

If nescessary, please also contact this user. In fact, that would probably be a good idea. :-)

Feel free to contact me for more information, if available.

Kim Bruning 18:44, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong support for this request. +sj + 07:27, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I'd like to request changing the username back to "っ".--っ (Tsutsu) 05:34, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

❌ I do oppose the name change, and have stated it in the discussion page listed above. We don't have a set policy in place to change usernames to non-Latin scripts at the moment. The debate is ongoing, not deprecated, and till them, I'd prefer to keep this in abeyance. Regards, =Nichalp   «Talk»=  14:07, 25 December 2006 (UTC)


 * If abeyance means what I think it does, maybe you should not mark this with a big red X. If you think it properly should have a big red X on it, please clarify what the status of this request is.  The user in question is en-2, and this native speaker is confused as to what you mean.-- Birgitte§β  ʈ  Talk  21:56, 25 December 2006 (UTC)


 * The "big red 'x'" just comes with the not done template, which we use because of the bot that does the automated archiving of the page. It represents no statement of any kind.  Redux 23:16, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Jim_Cockerham → Aspiring Journalist

 * Current name: Jim_Cockerham (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Aspiring Journalist (change username)

❌ Sorry the desired username exists. =Nichalp  «Talk»=  13:52, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Current name: Onur_h (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: shishkebab (change username)
 * Reason: Firstly, my old username reveals too much of my identity, and now I realise how dangerous this is for someone my age. There's also the fact that some of the immature bullies at my school have started searching for victims' names on Google and already one of them has had to undergo so much embarrassment and bullying. I searched for my name on Google, and the first link I found was to my user page. Sure, you may tell me that if they do end up finding me, that I should ignore it, but I don't take any joke too well. So please, change my username! -- Onur 13:30, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Thehebrewhammer → theh3brewhammer

 * Current name: Thehebrewhammer (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: theh3brewhammer (change username)
 * Reason: This is my username for everything else, I don't know what I was thinking when I setup the current one (the omission of the 3 is fine, but I have no clue what drove me to capitalize the t). Thanks a lot! -- Thehebrewhammer 21:39, 25 December 2006 (UTC)


 * ❌ You probably didn't forget it. Our software does not allow for a username to start with a lowercase letter.  The first letter must be capitalized.  Since it appears that the essence of your request would be to remove the capital "T", we can't help you, sorry.  However, if you would like to have the "3" included (but again, you must keep the capital "T"), please let us know, so that we can look into it.  Thank you.  Redux 23:24, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Tajik-afghan → Tassadar

 * [[Image:X mark.svg|20px]] Please use the template. Or, more accurately, please use the template correctly. You didn't copy the standard template filling it out with the necessary information, then attempted to insert the links manually, and as a result, the template was malformed and the links are inaccurate.

 * ❌ I'm sorry, but you misspelled your username twice (inverted two letters and capitalized a letter &#150; the "B" &#150; that is not capitalized).  As a result of that, the links on the template are inaccurate and will not work properly.  You need to fill out the template with your exact username, and also make sure that the new name you want is exactly as you want it, or you might be renamed to the wrong username.  For instance: notice that, as explained in the instructions, the first letter of a username must be capitalized, due to a limitation of our software.  Therefore, your new name would have to be Julianmcbouch.  Can you please repost, using the template again, and this time use your exact username, so that we will have the correct links to process your request?  Thank you.

 * Current name: Deepak.bhandari (talk • contribs)
 * Requested name: Bhandari&limit=1&offset=0 Deepak Bhandari (Bhandari change username)
 * Reason: The display of my old username is really not proper. At the time of account creation I was not sure if I could use spaces and I really did not know that renaming or creating a new account would be so difficult. I will really appreciate if you could change the username. Thanks in advance!! -- Deepak Bhandari 08:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)


 * ❌ Your only edit with that account was to post this request. That being the case, you can simply create a new account with the name that you want and start editing from it.  If you'd prefer, turn the user page and talk page of your present account into a redirect to your new account, or post a note to your change of identity, so as to associate the two accounts.
