Current requests
Wryspy → Comicist
- Current name: Wryspy (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Comicist (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
- Reason: I need to distinguish myself from an organization using the name Wryspy. 71.143.161.3 (talk) 07:26, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
SoxBot has evaluated this request, and a problem(s) was found. Request was made by ip 71.143.161.3, instead of the original account. SoxBot VI (talk) 07:27, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
Not done — Preceding unsigned comment added by bibliomaniac15 (talk • contribs)
Icarenow → ICareNOW
- Current name: Icarenow (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: ICareNOW (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
- Reason: consistency of branding with other iCareNOW sites (www.iCareNOW.tv and facebook page, etc;) easier to understand with appropriate capitalization of username. Icarenow (talk) 21:01, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
SoxBot has evaluated this request, and renaming appears to be possible. SoxBot VI (talk) 21:03, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- This seems to be fishy, with regard to the username policy and names of websites. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 21:08, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
Not done No branding. No promotion. Please review our username policies. Kingturtle (talk) 21:09, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
Air Force Communications Command → Air Force Communication Command
- Current name: Air Force Communications Command (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Air Force Communication Command (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
- Reason: I do not want to confuse my username with a real organization, or show a false authority. Air Force Communication Command does not exist and therefore will not pose this problem. Air Force Communications Command (talk) 17:18, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
SoxBot has evaluated this request, and renaming appears to be possible. SoxBot VI (talk) 17:21, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - the user had been counseled to request a username change because the current username violates WP:USERNAME as it gives an impression of undue authority. Unfortunately, the new username has the same problem. See user talk page along with deleted comments for details. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 17:35, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
Bureaucrat note: The new name does not solve the problem. Please select a name that is unquestionably unrelated to the Air Force Communications Command. Something like User:Flyboy flyer or User:Sonic Zoomie. Kingturtle (talk) 21:49, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

- Comment. While this user has edited the article 125th Weather Flight, the username is an ambiguous enough abbreviation that, IMHO, it is neither confusing nor suggestive of official standing. It looks like a reasonable change to me. —C.Fred (talk) 21:00, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
- I would disagree. 125th Weather Flight has pretty much been the focus of the contribs, and this rename may indicate a WP:SPA. Xclamation point 03:51, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
- I'd note that if the user is a SPA they will be so under either username. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 04:48, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
