 * Further note - account was apparently created immediately after this request, with an article deleted as spam. Reported to UAA as a promotional username. PeterSymonds (talk)  09:23, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
 * promotional. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 12:55, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Reason: The previous reason given for name change was denied because it sounded "promotional." Evasive Illusions is a car club with an official website already established.

 * SoxBot VI (talk) 12:09, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Alyssa.benning → Alyssa sevenfold

 * Reason: too personal. Alyssa.benning (talk) 18:52, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Oh it's there alright, and the account has an edit from 13 hours ago. Useight (talk) 00:00, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * unless requestor can prove he is the en wiki cesar user or the en user does not object. This will not be done. SUL owner is whomever owns the es wiki account. Will notifiy requestor and suggest waiting 7 days for a response. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 00:47, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * ❌ No response after 7 days. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  04:51, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

 * SoxBot VI (talk) 15:18, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Do you think that username is appropriate? Caulde  17:46, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't see anything very bad about it. Any other thoughts?  bibliomaniac 1  5  03:38, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not one for going looking for offensiveness, but this choice could be perceived as offensive re suicides, esp. in light of Golden Gate Bridge news currently in papers even here in the UK. I'm therefore nixing this request. Please choose another name. --Dweller (talk) 09:51, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
