Wikipedia:Changing username/Unfulfilled/2008/August

Leop85 → LepVektor

 * Reason: Per request at Steward_requests/SUL_requests. Accounts no longer require deletion to be renamed to the global reserved name. Ionek (talk) 19:54, 25 July 2008 (UTC)* SoxBot VI (talk) 19:57, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, you need to log in as User:Leop85 to make the request. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  10:09, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ No response. For security reasons you must log in with your current name. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  13:49, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Bm213 → Labalius

 * Reason: My old username was based upon an email address that I no longer have. The new name that I am requesting is an alias that I often use on the internet. I have not performed many (if any) actions under my current username but I intend to be more active on Wikipedia. I would prefer to begin with a name that I know I will keep. Thank you. Bm213 (talk) 21:21, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

 * ❌ Simply create the new account. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  13:50, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Mariánko → Marián_2

 * Reason: I am using Marián_2 at sk., cs., nl.,pl. etc. At en.wikipedia. I have two account - Mariánko and Marián_2. I need join them. Thanks. --Mariánko (talk) 09:25, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 09:27, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, you can't merge two accounts (especially those with edits). Perhaps, you can request this at another page, in which case, you may lose the edits you've already made with replacing them instead with edits made with the 'Mariánko' account.  Rud  get  09:45, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ We can't merge two accounts, so a request at WP:CHUU would be more suited as Rudget mentioned. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  13:57, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

AAKUTHOTA → A3332127

 * Reason: Do not want to use my nameRammstein (talk) 16:26, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 16:27, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * request was made with User:Aakuthota, not User:AAKUTHOTA. Both accounts have edits. Which one do you wish to rename? And what has this to do with User:Rammstein? — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 00:15, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ Please read the rules first. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  06:49, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Websty → Hemantan

 * Reason: my username doesn't sound nice, my friend knows my username and password, my username has nothing to do with my name: Herman Tan Websty (talk) 07:34, 24 July 2008 (UTC)* SoxBot VI (talk) 07:36, 24 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Did you mean Hermantan? You give your name as Herman above, and I wonder if this is what you meant. PeterSymonds (talk)  12:06, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Please change your password immediately and keep it private. And please reply to Peter's comment. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  07:34, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Renaming your account will not fix your password, as when you get renamed, the password gets kept. If the sole reason for renaming is to fix your password, following Nichalp's advice would be much better.  Maxim (talk)  18:37, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ No response. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  11:40, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Gears of War → Gears of War 2

 * Reason: I changed my name originally to celebrate the game. Now that the second one is about to be released, I would like to celebrate that also.  King  Rock (Gears of War) 00:29, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 00:30, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Dc root → DC Root

 * Reason: My previous listing was using incorrect lower case lettering Dc root (talk) 23:38, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 23:46, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
 * DC Root seems to be the vocalist of a notable rock group ROOT!. If you are that person, I would recommend you change the username to something else to avoid a conflict of interest. See Username policy. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  07:43, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ New request placed. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  11:55, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Jocke pirat → Jocke Pirat

 * Reason: I would like my old account moved to the capitalised account so that I can unify it with the rest of my Wikimedia accounts. Jocke Pirat (talk) 21:18, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 21:21, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * If Jockie pirat and Jokie Pirat are the same person (Jokie Pirat's only edit so make this CHU request), then the Pirat account can be renamed out of the way to allow to rename the pirat account to Pirat.  Maxim (talk)  21:38, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Jocke pirat and Jocke Pirat are both my accounts, I am using my other account to confirm that it is indeed me. Jacques Pirat Talk 22:03, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * This belongs in WP:CHU/SUL. Please place a request there. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  11:30, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ =Nichalp   «Talk»=  11:55, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Sebmetz → Troll Hebus

 * Reason: previously use of my personal name, prefer to have a non-straightforward user name. Sebmetz (talk) 18:21, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 18:24, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * May I suggest something different? The name "Troll" is negatively associated with problematic editors (see WP:TROLL). PeterSymonds (talk)  18:26, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * containing "troll" is a UAA violation and likely to cause problems. Please choose another name. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 22:46, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Gauthamg123 → Gautham

 * Reason: My old username was based on an older email id. I would like it to reflect the one I normally use these days, in addition to having all lower case letters, ie 'gautham'. I am also willing to take 'gauthamg' as an option. Gauthamg123 (talk) 01:21, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 01:24, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ Per above. Request needs to be made at WP:USURP =Nichalp   «Talk»=  12:58, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Juliewoodyer → Jgreen

 * Reason: I have recently gone back to my maiden name. Juliewoodyer (talk) 19:20, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 19:21, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
 * target has 6 edits from 3 years ago. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 09:35, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ The account exists so you would have to place a new request with an available name. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  14:19, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

N3dg → N3DG

 * Reason: Reason for requested renaming. N3dg (talk) 14:15, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

I would like to change to N3DG as the N3dg user name has the wrong lower case, it should be upper case as a proper noun.

Thank you very much ! are you the same N3DG that is on WikiCommons? — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 16:24, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Slater79 --> Runt41

 * Current username: Slater79.
 * Requested username: Runt41
 * Reason: I am no longer a slater (I was laid off; I used to be a roof slater), and I'm being harrassed by my former employer, who I am suing for his harrassment. I have added a lot of grammatical corrections and such to Wikipedia, and I have taken a lot of time to do this. I wanted to change my Username to Runt, but that's been taken, apparently. Therefore, I'd settle for Runt41. What do ya think? Slater79 (talk) 04:37, 4 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment: The original version of this request does not actually seem to have been rejected. Please see WP:VP/M. --208.76.104.133 (talk) 04:53, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Slater, that would be up to you. The Runt useraccount exists, but as per procedure, we have to give a week's notice period to the current account holder before we grant you the Runt username. So, you would have to wait till August 11. Else, if you are in a big hurry, we can rename you to Runt41 immediately. But you can place only one request, not both. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  06:29, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

So you're saying that if I can get the Runt username if I wait until August 11th? That would be okay, because I'm in no big hurry. I'd prefer the Runt username to the Runt41 username, so I'll wait until August 11th. Yup. But one thing that I don't understand is that I thought that someone already HAS the Runt username. Well, I guess not then. Well, I'll be happy to wait until August 11th, and then take the Runt username. Slater79 (talk) 01:26, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok I'm marking this as a ❌ since you are going ahead with the CHUU request. Yes, someone has the Runt username but since the person has not made any contributions to Wikipedia, and has been inactive for a long time. For such cases, we can usurp the username, since it does not violate GFDL laws. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  05:48, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Lucy Guerin inc → Lucy Guerin Inc
❌ Company promotional names are not allowed as policy. Please change your username to something more acceptable. See WP:USERNAME for our policy. Please place one request only, not 4. I have removed the three other duplicates. =Nichalp  «Talk»=  05:52, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

 * SoxBot VI (talk) 17:48, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
 * You currently operate a global account and thus this account already exists (since you must have forgot to log out when visiting this site). You should be able log into this account if you use the password you unified your account with, or you can transfer this request to WP:USURP if you wish to keep the contributions you've made with the account.

In this case it is available but since no edits have been made, you can usurp it. Read the instructions carefully, and place a request on WP:CHUU.

 * ❌ You did not read the rules properly. The account exists. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  15:52, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

lordpoopy →monkey lover

 * Reason: Reason for requested renaming. becuse i think it dosent folow the guidlines —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lordpoopy (talk • contribs) 15:45, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 15:48, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
 * "Monkey lover" is taken, but they've only made a single edit back in 2005, and it wasn't particularly significant. You can try to usurp it, however it might just be easier to pick a new name and register that (since you haven't made many edits). EVula // talk // &#9775;  // 19:15, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
