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. |
Current requests
Konabear → Blackburn2000
- Current name: Konabear (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Blackburn2000 (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: Recently my name change from Konabear to Blackburn2000 was approved. My posting were supposed to be reattributed to my new user name for privacy reasons, but only a few were reattributed. I would like to request my original Dec.13 posted to be changed to my new username as well to avoid being contacted regarding this posting in the future. Thank you. Blackburn2000 (talk) 03:08, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- SoxBot has evaluated this request, and a problem(s) was found. Target username exists, and it has edits, deleted edits, and/or log edits. SoxBot (talk) 03:09, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, this username already exists because you recently granted my username change from Konabear to Blackburn2000, But you only reattributed half of my postings on my history page. I would like my original posting from Dec. 16 2006 to be reattributed to my new name, Blackburn2000, if possible. I've had problems with other users identifying me and sending me emails. I tried to contact one of your administrators to do this, but never heard back. I would appreciate the reattribution change of my original Dec.13 posting if you can do it. Thank You. Blackburn2000 (talk)
- Bureaucrat note: Full reattribution can take some time. When was the last rename done? We can't merge accounts, so if you're not prepared to wait for the process to finish, or if it's bugged, I can only suggest we rename your old account to another name. What would you like to do? --Dweller (talk) 09:20, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for taking the time to look at this for me. If renaming my old account to my new username, Blackburn2000, would help change the original posting I created on Dec. 13, then I would like to rename the old account if you think that would help. The purpose of the username change from Konabear to Blackburn2000 was to reattribute all postings with the name Konabear so I could no longer be identified by other users and emailed about my postings. I have only created one page, and all postings were reattributed except for the original posting on Dec. 13. Please do what you think would be best in this case. Thank you again for looking into this. Blackburn2000 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 21:51, 30 June 2009 (UTC).
- Bureaucrat note: I can rename the few edits left on that account, but not to your new name. We cannot merge accounts. What new name would you like those under? --Dweller (talk) 13:59, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

- Reason: Reason for requested renaming. Rjanag felt that my username sounds like "Linguistics sucks" and therefore would be an attack. This was not the intention of my username, but if it gives that impression, it should be changed. My new name is a nonsense word which preserves the phonological and alphabetical oddities I liked about the old one. Linguistixuck (talk) 01:38, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
