Some time later Wikimedia does this great step, and my user name in several wkimedia sites I contribute is 'Pla' (my real familiy name). I couldn't get it in en.wikipedia, because seems to have one user with this username, but also seems that this user doesn't wrote any contribution. I would get 'Pla' user name for my account in order to heve the same user name in all Wikimedia editions. Thank You

 * Reason: "Touriste" is the name of my principal trans-wiki account, quite active on :fr wiki and marginally on some other projects. I would like to use this name here also, hence extending my SUL account to all wikis. Since the (different and unknown to me) user whose account name is currently "Touriste" here has made very few editions (and none for the last four years) I guess this might be in the "discretionary" area where I could obtain satisfaction (the rules are over-complicated and I have read them quite loosely, I hope I make no big blunder).

 * Looks fine. If you can verify the polarscribe ownership, I can do this right away.  MBisanz  talk 17:31, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Verified. My Internet identity has shifted to this username (Twitter, et al.), but the editing history/admin bit are with the old one. polarscribe (talk) 17:40, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Please note that the polarscribe account was being used for sockpuppetry and not as a request for a rename, as shown at Sockpuppet investigations/FCYTravis. Reaper Eternal (talk) 18:20, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * That is utter nonsense. I posted the request here at 17:25 UTC, clearly and publicly making the link between the two accounts and requesting that they be merged into one. polarscribe (talk) 18:22, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Then why on earth did you claim to be a different editor? Did you mean "my other account" or were you referring to yourself in the third person? Reaper Eternal (talk) 18:24, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * The "other editor" refers to myself - Dr. Blofeld disagrees with my disputation of the article's facts. By definition, he/she should not be the one removing the dispute tag. The whole point of the dispute tag is that the article is being disputed, and if the edit-warrior can simply say "well I don't think there's a dispute" and remove the tag... there's really no point in the tag, is there? But that's beside the point here. The point is, I have two accounts and wish to only have one. I wouldn't be publicly saying "hey, I have two accounts, make them one" if I was trying to sockpuppet. polarscribe (talk) 18:32, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I have no intention of getting involved in the content dispute. I was merely trying to ensure that no abusive sockpuppetry was going on, and I am satisfied that your edit summary just looked bad: It implied to Dr. Blofeld and I that you were claiming that your two accounts were unrelated and, by implication, that two editors opposed Dr. Blofeld's changes. Reaper Eternal (talk) 18:36, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

"The "other editor" refers to myself" Sure it does. You got out of this one by the skin of your teeth. I addressed the issues in the article you addressed and spent considerable time today trying to make improvements to sourcing and content and you continued to place tags and edit war, that was why I reverted both of your accounts. Funny thing is that I was perfectly open to a friendly constructive discussion about this before you started with the snarky edit summaries and reverting and arrogant tone on the talk page. Treat others with a bit of respect and they might just reciprocate it. Now if you have returned to wikipedia and genuinely want to improve content I welcome you back.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld  18:53, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Seriously, you need to look at something called a timestamp. At 17:25 UTC, I posted this public request to merge the accounts - the edit you are questioning occurred at 18:02, more than 30 minutes later. If I had any intent in engaging in sockpuppetry, why on Earth would I have done that? Meanwhile, you have made a slew of personal attacks ("disgruntled rogue," etc.) against me, which make you the last person eligible to question my integrity. polarscribe (talk) 19:01, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

You added "accuracy and fringe theories" tags because you personally believe that ghosts don't exist and think that they are mistruths, not that the actual reporting in the article of what has "reputedly" been claimed is inaccurate or faulty, there is quite a difference and you are wrong to add tags on issues you personally disagree with, even though the information is documented in masses of books and newspapers. You had a point about it being a historical article so the hauntings probably better suited to another article and that a few of the sources needed replacing but I have actually tried to rectify the situation. I have said nothing which is even remotely uncivil. You left wikipedia long ago because you felt disheartened, that's running off in a disgruntled manner, unhappy with the state of things here. you then return and use a] Your IP account. b] Polarscribe. c] FCYTravis to argue the same points and make it look as if there are multiple editors supporting you in the reverting and talk page discussions. I don't stalk other people's edits and wasn't aware you had applied for an account merger. You shouldn't have been using the different account anyway while the request was being made and even so your edit summary strongly implied you were acting as a different editor, so it easy to assume rogue behaviour. As I said if you want to be treated with respect then start showing me as the main article contributor some respect.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld  19:10, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not going to further address this here because it's not the place to engage in a discussion about an editing conflict. Use the article talk page or my personal talk page if you wish to talk to me. polarscribe (talk) 19:17, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
