![]() | This page is currently inactive and is retained for historical reference. Either the page is no longer relevant or consensus on its purpose has become unclear. To revive discussion, seek broader input via a forum such as the village pump. |
This page was a temporary forum for the processing of username changes that related to the migration to single unified login (SUL) between June 2008 and April 2010. Prior to this, it served as a holding pen for requests that could not be completed due to bugs in the SUL renaming process.
Instructions
For the instructions that were in use at the time this page was closed to new requests, see Wikipedia:Changing username/SUL/Front matter/Instructions
Notes
- When the rename has been completed, your account will have been renamed, and any contributions you have made (including deleted contributions) will be reattributed to your new account as a background process. Your account preferences, watchlist contents, password, etc. will all be preserved, and your user and user talk pages will have been moved to the new name.
- Note: The process responsible for reallocating old contributions is currently dependent upon the job queue mechanism. As such, you may find old contributions do not immediately appear under your new account; this is perfectly normal. Updates should take at most a day to complete, although the length of time will vary according to the size of the job queue on this wiki, and the status of the server processes which process this queue.
- The change will appear in the user rename log and the request will be moved to the archives in the interest of transparency. It is not possible to rename accounts without an entry being created in the log.
- This change will not affect signatures you have already left on talk pages, or other places where you signed your username with ~~~~. Those pages will continue to display your signature (including the link to your old username) unless edited manually.
- Be aware: Once you have been renamed, your old account will no longer exist and may potentially be recreated by a third party. This is true even if your old account pages have been redirected towards your new account. To guard against impersonation, you may wish to recreate the old account yourself.
A few users have agreed to provide assistance with the mechanics of this process. If you wish to assist as well, please read the linked page carefully.

Current requests
Place new requests at the bottom of the page.
Softly.lt → Softlylt
- Current name: Softly.lt (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Softlylt (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google)
- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req

- Reason: Global change because of violation of policy. Softly.lt (talk) 18:21, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
SoxBot has evaluated this request, and a problem(s) was found. Requesting user has 1 edit, to this page only. SoxBot VI (talk) 18:24, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
Bureaucrat note: This is related to SUL, so it belongs at WP:CHU/SUL. However, even there, I'm not sure you have the best claim to the global account "SoftlyIt", since there are users on other wikis with more edits than you. If these are yours, you'll have to confirm it in some way. Otherwise, you may have to consider a different SUL. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 03:23, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Clerk note: Moved here from CHU. MBisanz talk 20:53, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Bureaucrat note: Thanks, MBisanz. My cratnote above still stands though; and, just for the requester's sake, I refer to the it.wikibooks account when I say others have better claim than you. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 21:14, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
