:::Hello, Cabayi. I appreciate your advise. I am aware of the implications associated with using a real name and that is why I want to change my user. Bgscy has references to my real name, mtnzll does not. [[User:Bgscy|Bgscy]] ([[User talk:Bgscy|talk]]) 10:39, 16 February 2023 (UTC) |

::::{{u|Bgscy|You}}'re missing the point. If you reuse the same pseudonym on multiple platforms, a mistake on one platform which leaks your identity leaks it for every platform where you have used the same pseudonym.

Do not be surprised if you suddenly cannot log in to your old account; this merely indicates that you should log in under your new user name as the request has been fulfilled. |
Knightoftheswords281 → Crusader1096
- Current name: Knightoftheswords281 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Crusader1096 (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
- For global renamer: rename user
- Datestamp: 03:30, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Preferred internet alias. Also, my old username was goofy as hell. Crusader1096 (talk) 03:30, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

- Renamer note: Knightoftheswords281, the request has sat unanswered for over a week and it appears none of the renamers is keen on your choice of username. A username alluding to a religious war does not appear to me conducive to collegial editing. I'm not declining as a policy decision, but on a personal basis, I'm choosing not to use my renamer rights in this case. Cabayi (talk) 10:04, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
UNITED STATES OF LINKINPARK → UNITED STATES OF LINKIN PARK Alerts (2)
- Current name: UNITED STATES OF LINKINPARK (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: UNITED STATES OF LINKIN PARK Alerts (2) (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
- For global renamer: rename user
- Datestamp: 12:07, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: A minor edit UNITED STATES OF LINKIN PARK (talk) 12:07, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
- Renamer note: UNITED STATES OF LINKINPARK, I altered the return character in your request to a space as it was breaking the templates. You have not used the account for anything other than requests to change username. More explanation than "A minor edit" is needed. Cabayi (talk) 18:17, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
Bgscy → mtnzll
- Current name: Bgscy (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Mtnzll (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
- For global renamer: rename user
- Datestamp: 10:28, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: I want to contribute anonimously to informing people about my community and my town, but my current username gives hints about my identity and I would like to keep it private. My new user name is based on a pseudonym that I've been using online for quite a few years now. Bgscy (talk) 10:28, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
- Robot clerk note: No problems found—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 10:30, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
- Renamer note: Bgscy Pseudonymous is not the same as anonymous. Wikipedia strongly advises against using real names or nicknames which can be traced to you - Renamer note: Are you aware of (and comfortable with) the potential implications associated with using a real name?

- Hello, Cabayi. I appreciate your advise. I am aware of the implications associated with using a real name and that is why I want to change my user. Bgscy has references to my real name, mtnzll does not. Bgscy (talk) 10:39, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
