 * You are right in saying that the local account is not attached; however, because the ja.wiki user has already unified their account, they have the greater priority towards the username.

There were two others - on zhwiki and dewiki - whom I couldn't inform either.

I don't really know how to "use Wikimedia Toolserver" but from what I could find, the only user who using an unattached account is on the Ukranian Wikipedia and I have no intention of usurping his account there. He has a userpage which does not list English, so I don't think he intends to unify with en_wiki either. Do I need his (or someone else's) permission to usurp the username here which seems to have been created a much longer time ago? Please help me out here. -- Dhatsavan 18:10, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

 * It's a conflict, so why would it be good? Also, you cannot rename an account to purposely make an SUL conflict; it's bad. I'm very surprised you actually want an SUL conflict. An SUL conflict is where two or more accounts are owned by different persons. -- J <span style="color:green; border-bottom:1px dotted; cursor: help;" title="This is my talk page link.

 * Dhatsavan, I'm sorry, but I cannot approve the request as the Ukrainian user has a very strong claim to the SUL based on his 272 edits as recently as this year. If he had fewer edits or consented, it might be accept to create a conflict, but as that is not the case, I can't give you global control of the username without a better claim of right to it. Feel free to pick another name or a variant of "Orange" like "Orange Physics" or some other name that has meaning for you.  MBisanz  talk 21:30, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * That's fine. I understand. I'll try to contact him or pick a different name. "Dhatsavan" seems fine for now. (I'll need time to decide on a different permanent name.) Thanks for the clear explanation btw.-- Dhatsavan 23:52, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

 * I see, is this because my account JeanM is global, so if I rename it here I would have to be renamed on every other wikimedia project?

We've previously made exceptions where this has been necessary to unify global accounts, as the goal is to resolve username conflicts between various Wikimedia projects. In this case however, I think your request falls outside the area in which bureaucrats are allowed to perform usurpations. <strong style="font-variant:small-caps">WJBscribe (talk) 23:06, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
