|
{{CHU|taken|username}}{{CHU|accounttaken|username}}{{CHU|occupied|username}}
|
| Clerk note: The requested username is already registered; see Special:CentralAuth. However, as this requested account has made no edits, it meets the criteria for being usurped; if you are an established user and wish to usurp it, please read and follow the process at m:Steward requests/Username changes. If you do not wish to usurp the username, please choose another name to be renamed to.
|
{{CHU|usurp|username}}{{CHU|accounttakenusurp|username}}{{CHU|takenusurp|username}}
|
| Clerk note: The requested username is the same as your current name, aside from the first letter being in lowercase. Due to technical limitations, usernames must start with an uppercase letter. However, you may use the template {{lowercase title}} on your user and user talk pages, and change your signature to reflect your preference.
|
{{CHU|lowercase}}{{CHU|lcase}}
|
| Clerk note: The requested username is the same as your current name, but with underscores where your current name has spaces. These are considered identical by the MediaWiki software.
|
{{CHU|underscore}}{{CHU|uscore}}
|
| Clerk note: Please provide a reason for renaming.
|
{{CHU|noreason}}{{CHU|reason}}
|
| Clerk note: The username appears to be promotional. Use of a company, organization, group, website, or product name as a username is prohibited by the username policy. Please choose another name.
|
{{CHU|promotional}}{{CHU|pro}}{{CHU|promot}}
|
| Clerk note: This username may classify as an inappropriate username under the username policy (Optional reason why username is inappropriate). Please choose another name.
|
{{CHU|inappropriate|(Optional reason why username is inappropriate)}}{{CHU|inaprop|(Optional reason why username is inappropriate)}}

| Clerk note: Are you aware of (and comfortable with) the potential implications associated with using a real name?

{{CHU|nocontrib|username}}{{CHU|nocontribs|username}}{{CHU|unused|username}}
|
| Clerk note: If this is a request for courtesy vanishing—meaning you intend never to edit the English Wikipedia again—or are you just wanting to abandon this account? Please note that returning after exercising courtesy vanishing may be met with automatic relinking of the new account with the old one. If you are just interested in retiring, an extended vacation, or are considering a clean start in the future, placing {{retired}} on your user and/or talk page(s) and abandoning the account is the better option.
|
{{CHU|rtv}}{{CHU|vanish}}
|
| Clerk note: As your request appears to be related to a desire for anonymity/privacy, please note that a permanent log record will be created noting your previous name. As such, you might consider simply creating a new account and having your current account renamed to something random and abandoning it. Please advise.

| Clerk note: It appears that a user on another Wikimedia project holds the claim to the SUL for this name. Please see Wikipedia:Handling SUL conflicts for more information on this topic.
