Wikipedia:Changing username/Unfulfilled/2009/March

Icarenow → ICareNOW

 * Reason: consistency of branding with other iCareNOW sites (www.iCareNOW.tv and facebook page, etc;) easier to understand with appropriate capitalization of username. Icarenow (talk) 21:01, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 21:03, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * This seems to be fishy, with regard to the username policy and names of websites. &mdash; Anonymous Dissident  Talk 21:08, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * No branding. No promotion. Please review our username policies. Kingturtle (talk) 21:09, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Air Force Communications Command → Air Force Communication Command

 * Reason: I do not want to confuse my username with a real organization, or show a false authority. Air Force Communication Command does not exist and therefore will not pose this problem. Air Force Communications Command (talk) 17:18, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 17:21, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - the user had been counseled to request a username change because the current username violates WP:USERNAME as it gives an impression of undue authority. Unfortunately, the new username has the same problem.  See user talk page along with deleted comments for details.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 17:35, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The new name does not solve the problem. Please select a name that is unquestionably unrelated to the Air Force Communications Command. Something like User:Flyboy flyer or User:Sonic Zoomie. Kingturtle (talk) 21:49, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Request made again below. Kingturtle (talk) 22:08, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

 * SoxBot VI (talk) 21:48, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * If your current name is your real name, how is your suggested new name not your real name? Kingturtle (talk) 21:58, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Kingturtle (talk) 15:56, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Choudhary ali zia kabir → Choudhary Ali Zia Kabir

 * Reason: It was too long and revealing further 'A' in 'ali' wasn't capitalised. Choudhary ali zia kabir (talk) 08:59, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 09:00, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Please specify which of your two requests you would like fulfilled. &mdash; Anonymous Dissident  Talk 10:40, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Air Force Communications Command → 125WF
Air Force Communications Command (talk) 17:19, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Reason: See Talk Page
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 17:21, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. While this user has edited the article 125th Weather Flight, the username is an ambiguous enough abbreviation that, IMHO, it is neither confusing nor suggestive of official standing. It looks like a reasonable change to me. —C.Fred (talk) 21:00, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I would disagree. 125th Weather Flight has pretty much been the focus of the contribs, and this rename may indicate a WP:SPA. X clamation point  03:51, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I'd note that if the user is a SPA they will be so under either username. &mdash; Anonymous Dissident  Talk 04:48, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * done below. Kingturtle (talk) 22:12, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Snipercraft → Retired1378

 * Reason: I was a new user and wanted to contribute to the articles related to Charles Whitman. I made two edits and had no idea that the other contributors could be so unstable. I just want out. Thank you. 70.114.230.120 (talk) 15:37, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 15:39, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Requesting username does not exist. -Jeremy (v^_^v Cardmaker) 00:19, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Nightwatch → Furret

 * Reason: I go by Furret on all other websites now. I would have just recreated my account, but I mistakenly thought moving my user page would do the renaming, so now the account name is reported as taken. Sorry. Nightwatch／respond 04:51, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 04:54, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * See this. The Furret on ru: should really have prior claim to the SUL for this name. Is that you? --Dweller (talk) 10:30, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh dear, I didn't even see that. Retracted. Nightwatch／respond 20:05, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Kingturtle (talk) 12:43, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Fahadsadah → Teh Ownage

 * Reason: Privacy, + Teh Ownage is much cooler. Fahadsadah (talk) 17:11, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 17:12, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * There is something I forgot to mention. Please can my userspace and usertalk remain untouched? I will CSD:U1 the pages that don't need to remain, and redirect the pages that do. Fahadsadah (talk) 17:31, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * To my knowledge, your user pages will remain the same, however are automatically moved to your new one. --CTurnbull (talk) 18:53, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I was requesting that they not be moved. Sorry for the confusion Fahadsadah (talk) 16:47, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 * There already exists User:Teh owNaGE. You will need to usurp that account before you change to User:Teh Ownage. Make your usurpation request at WP:CHUU. Kingturtle (talk) 02:26, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I recently realised that this would not rename my SUL, and now I'm no longer interested in a rename. Fahadsadah (talk) 16:47, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Kingturtle (talk) 02:31, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

DI SI Register → Reggie

 * Reason: I would like to have a shorter name, and this is my name in Hebrew Wikipedia: See he:user:DI SI Register (it redirects to he:user:Reggie). I know this user, user:Reggie is taken, but he has only one edit in 2004. Please give his name to me! DI SI Register (talk) 21:17, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 21:18, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Elemael → Elemesh

 * Reason: My old account on here was called Elemesh. As you can see he has 1 edit to Windlesham House School in the year 2006. For continuity purposes (as Elemesh is my standard internet alias) I would like to use the old account name I created. I cannot use the account itself because I have forgotten the password and the email account used to set it up has been closed. I know it is a rather selfish request, but is it at all possible? Thankyou Elemael (talk) 12:53, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * SoxBot VI (talk) 12:57, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Please see WP:USURP; if Elemesh does not object in 8 days (which it shouldn't, since you own the account), you should be able to usurp it if the bureaucrats agree. &mdash; Anonymous Dissident  Talk 14:14, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

 * It might need a timestamp. Kingturtle (talk) 19:36, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Stephen.besinaiz → SealTM_#06

 * Reason: The user name is much more feasable and I use this user name on most log-in user names. SMB (talk) 21:09, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

 * SoxBot VI (talk) 21:45, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Angela, I think that he wanted johnsmith1994 in the first place. :) <span style="font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;color:steelblue;">X clamation point  00:07, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Sawblade05 → Sawblade5

 * Reason: To match my Wikia username. I Accidentally Created a new account on the new nick but I can't get it fixed for 6 months on WP:USURP.
