Robot clerk note: I have detected the following problems:
- The requested username is already registered; see Special:Listusers. However, as this requested account has made no edits, it meets the criteria for being usurped; if you wish to usurp it, please read and follow the process at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations. If you do not wish to usurp the username, please choose another name to be renamed to.
- There is already a global account registered for Mel Peake. --Chris G Bot 3 (talk) 12:18, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
Clerk note: Accounts cannot be shared or transferred between users. The previous account should be abandoned, and a new one created under a name that identifies you as an individual. The target name "Mel Peake" is already registered and thus unavailable, but once the new account has been established you can request to usurp it — Frankie (talk) 16:20, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
