Simple username changes

Shortcuts

This page hosts simple requests for a username change across the Wikimedia network. Requests are processed by stewards and global renamers.

Instructions

Read Wikipedia:Changing username carefully. You must be aware of and understand all the implications of changing your username. Specifically:
- Your name will be changed to the new one in the page history of every page you've edited, and in all log entries.
- Your user pages, account preferences, and edits will be moved to the new name. Please do not create a new account or attempt to move them yourself.
- Links left by your previous signatures will still point to the old userpage; however, a redirect will be created pointing to your new userpage.
- Understand that using your real name as your username may put you at risk of harassment.
Read the username policy and ensure your new name does not violate it. Usernames must not:
- be inappropriate, profane, or offensive
- contain libelous, contentious, or non-public information
- be misleading by impersonating other users or implying that you have authority
- be the name of a company, organization, group; or imply that the account is shared with multiple people
- contain emoji, emoticons, or non-language symbols
- contain the # < > [ ] | { } / @ : = characters, among other restrictions
Check that your new username is not already in use by searching for it on Special:CentralAuth. If the name is registered, even on another Wikimedia project, it is taken.
If the target name hasn't made any edits to any Wikimedia project, you may request usurpation at meta:Steward requests/Username changes.
Log in with your current username. Requests will not be approved if the requester is not logged in.
Place your request here.
- Add your desired username after NEW=.
- Add a reason for the change after REASON=. Requests without a valid reason will not be approved.
- Do not change anything else.
Select Publish changes.
Check back on this page periodically to answer any inquiries regarding your request. Consider watching the page so you can monitor updates. Requests may be closed if there are unresolved queries.

Requests that do not follow these instructions or that are grossly malformed are subject to removal.

For help 'vanishing' from Wikipedia, please see courtesy vanishing.

Not done For starters, your username does not need to reflect the type of articles you'll be editing. Secondly, usernames can't be the same names as companies per our username policy; there's no way we'd rename you "Wikimedia", of all things. Sorry.

Reason: User has requested to vanish. Protonk (talk) 22:53, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
SoxBot has evaluated this request, and a problem(s) was found. Although the requested username exists, the user has not made any contributions to Wikipedia. Therefore, you can place a request to usurp the username at WP:USURP. SoxBot VI (talk) 22:54, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WARNING: Requests for username RevAntonio should be seen as suspicious and examined carefully. If usurpation occurs, make it clear that that is the case. This may present a scenario that someone is anxious to usurp the username RevAntonio. RevAntonio has in fact made contributions as can be seen at Claddagh ring and Guayabera. Carefully examine this change to username i don't know.75.21.116.175 (talk) 03:00, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The change won't be to that username specifically. Protonk is filing this on behalf of that user. Also, renaming moves all the user's editing history as well, so any edits that were once attributed to RevAntonio will be attributed to the new name, whatever it ends up being. -Jeremy ^{(v^_^v Cardmaker)} 03:04, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
