Kidburla2002 → Kidburla
- Current name: Kidburla2002 (talk · contribs · logs · block log)
- Requested name: Kidburla (rename user)
- Reason: I can't remember why I decided to take the name Kidburla2002 over Kidburla when I first joined Wikipedia. It was back in 2002 when I joined, the year Wikipedia was created. I think probably I had just created a user account on another website where Kidburla was taken, and so I just decided to use the same name for both sites. There are three main reasons why I now want to change my name to Kidburla:
- 1. People will think that I am boasting, by putting 2002 at the end of my name I am highlighting the fact that I've been on the wiki longer than them, and I don't want to give over this impression.
- 2. People are going to start to think that 2002 is my birth year, and I am only 6 years old, when in fact it is my joining year.
- 3. My username on every other wiki community I contribute to is Kidburla, and so people will expect to see me under that name.
