 * i saw this some hours ago... i wasn't convinced that it was meant to be a rename. See Emporia Arts Council and the user's talk page. There isn't a notice about the removal of grossly malformed requests so i left it to those with more experience since i can't see the now twice deleted article. delirious &amp; lost  ☯ ~hugs~ 01:28, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

GreyWolfy → Shurin

 * Reason: This account belonged to a person close to me, because of poor response and no acceptance was on the verge of closing. Due to the desire, I decided to fulfill it and would love to change the name to something more serious sounding. "Shurin - jap. Monsoon" GreyWolfy (talk) 20:32, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 20:33, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'm a little confused. You're requesting renaming of your friend's account? ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 05:02, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Everything is fine. As described above, with approval was given to me. With no point doing a new account, decided to alter the name as a new beginning.--GreyWolfy (talk) 12:47, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but if you want a new beginning, please create a new account for you. Accounts should not be used by more than one person or passed between people. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 20:20, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Dhawalvankar007 →

 * Reason: i don't need my surname dhawal005 (talk) 03:19, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 03:21, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * ❌ as this request is so completely malformed I can't figure out what you want done. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 03:54, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Belated it would appear that this is a simple case of not including the new name when submitting the request. However, the user's signature displays a name in line with the stated reason for the renaming. The one part i have question about is the change of number following the name, from 007 to 005. I have left a note for the user asking for clarification (or a resubmission). delirious  &amp; lost  ☯ ~hugs~ 04:31, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * They didn't include the current username, either. I fixed that much of the malformed request. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 09:18, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Lear's Fool → The Fool

 * Reason: I like "The Fool" better, and I'd rather change usernames than starting a new account and retiring my old one. If this isn't a good enough reason, that's fine.  Also, Lear's Fool is my SUL.  Will a rename here rename all my accounts on the other Wikimedia projects? -- Lear's Fool (talk | contribs) 16:19, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 16:21, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * No, renaming must be requested on each project, so this rename will only affect the English Wikipedia.  MBisanz  talk 18:55, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, don't worry about it. There's already a "The Fool" on Commons anyway, so I wouldn't be able to.  Thanks for your time. -- Lear's Fool (talk | contribs) 09:29, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Le0t → IRJohnD2010

 * Reason: Privacy, lack of account deletion in wikipedia. Want to leave all wikimedia projects. Le0t (talk) 08:16, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 08:18, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

GreyWolfy → Shurin

 * Reason: I would love to change my account name from GreyWolfy, to Shurin. None specific reason. GreyWolfy (talk) 13:29, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 13:33, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Lindsay123 → Vbrtszy643bla

 * Reason: No longer want to edit on here and do not want my name associated with this website. Nothing personal. Lindsay123 (talk) 04:22, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 04:24, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Is this a Right to Vanish request, meaning you intend never to edit the English Wikipedia again, or are you just wanting to abandon this account? If the latter, placing retired on your user and/or talk page(s) and abandoning the account is the better option. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 09:38, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I may edit again if I feel I have something to contribute. But my edits do not need to be associated with my surname.--Lindsay123 (talk) 03:05, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 * ❌ Please just place retired on your user and/or talk page(s) then. Also, "Lindsay" is a fairly common given name as well, so it's unlikely any connection could be made to you personally with this username. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 07:10, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

DLMarykwas → Long Beach community organizer

 * Reason: I was foolish to use my real name. I hope that it can be removed from the records. DLMarykwas (talk) 19:54, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * SoxBot (talk) 19:57, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * You are welcome to select something that does not imply a position of authority and is not related to the articles you wish to edit. You can either update the request or add a note below this with your new proposed user name and someone will update this request for you.

 * Got it. Make username "MSGeneric" instead. Thanks! Management Systems 15:57, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 * That's just as bad, for all the same reasons plus the fact that it (and your rationale) seem to imply this account will be shared. Shared accounts and promotional accounts are both blocked on sight. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 19:36, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Haathen → Trefoltaramen231

 * Reason: This account has contributions not made by me, on issues I do not want to be associated with in any way. Just created it to upload a some pictures to an article, and both me and the editor overlooked the fact that it kept me signed in on that computer. I use this nickname frequently. Pretty sure I wouldn't qualify for right to vanish (besides that looks even less appropriate for an issue like this), trying to see if I can qualify for username change, at least making it less likely to have them accidentally associated with me. Thank you very much Haathen

Edit:

Thank you for your replies.

I registered the account to upload pictures, but hadn't known that Wikipedia is so strict on copyright issues. Couldn't upload the pictures in the end because I did not have sufficient information about their legal status. Those requirements were only displayed after the account was created.

Only the first edit of this account belongs to me.

My account has not been compromised. It was just set on auto sign-in on a computer not exclusively used by me.

 * Looking through all your edits on all wikis, the only place you have edits is here on enwiki. You say you created the account to upload some pictures, but you have no such contributions on any wiki under this username (unless they've been deleted). I don't see a valid reason for renaming, really. Anyone else want to chime in? ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:25, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
 * @ Joe, The SUL tool includes deleted contributions in its count. Both show 7 at this time. I'm not sure that renaming the account would be a resolution to the stated concerns, but i am also not clear on why the user thinks renaming the account is the best fix. @ Haathen, Could you clarify which edits are not yours or are you saying that the 6 preceding this rename request are not yours edits. If the account is yours and you think it has been compromised you should check Special:Preferences to ensure your email address is there and then reset your password. delirious &amp; lost  ☯ ~hugs~ 07:32, 4 April 2010 (UTC)


 * I recommend just editing and forgetting about the edits made by the other person. I reviewed them, and there's nothing exceptionally controversial about them. If you aren't going to be using the account, just abandon it. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:53, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
