Current requests
Cinemalumiere → Cinemalu
- Current name: Cinemalumiere (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Cinemalu (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: inappropriate name Cinemalumiere (talk) 06:43, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
- SoxBot has evaluated this request, and renaming appears to be possible. SoxBot (talk) 06:45, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
- I think that perhaps a username entirely different from your current one would be for the best. In addition, please note that your username is a secondary problem; the main one is that you're linking to this site inappropriately, given your username. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 06:49, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
Sardaka → Clytemnestra
- Current name: Sardaka (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)

- Reason: Am being stalked. Sardaka (talk) 10:16, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

- Bureaucrat note: Is there another username that you'd prefer? You could try to usurp the account, but that'll take another week, which is hardly an ideal option if you're actively being stalked. EVula // talk // ☯ // 22:05, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

- Clerk note: Please, please, realise that the conflict of interest still exists, no matter what the username is. It's not about the username, it's about your affiliation with the company — DeontalkI'm BACK! 09:50, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Grahamzilch → Rannpháirtí anaithnid
- Current name: Grahamzilch (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Rannpháirtí anaithnid (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 left Wikipedia following an unhappy incident a over a year ago. I returned about two months ago - but signed up for a new user name (I should have just renamed the old one, I know). I have now clocked up about 1,700 edits with the new account (Rannpháirtí_anaithnid). I would like the edits from the old account (Grahamzilch) reattributed to the new account (Rannpháirtí_anaithnid) and the old account deleted. I'm logging in under the old account solely for the purposes of making this request. Many thanks. Grahamzilch (talk) 01:06, 23 July 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) 01:09, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- Clerk note: Unfortunately, accounts cannot be merged nor deleted. You may be able to WP:USURP one account with the other, but I haven't looked into the number of edits or their GDFL-compliance. Useight (talk) 05:46, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- The old account has approx. 6,500 edits. The new one has approx. 1,700 edits (that's the one I'm posting from now). The reason I ask is because Wikipedia:Requests for administrator attention says this is the place to "Reassign edits or make name changes." Maybe that's a remnant from the distant past (when IP edits could be reassigned to a user name).
- It's my own fault, I know. So, if it ain't possible to reassign the edits, I'll just have to live with it. Thanks. --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid (coṁrá) 10:16, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: Edits can be reassigned to a new name as part of a name change. At this point, the software does not permit assigning edits to a pre-existing name, sorry. -- Avi (talk) 16:50, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- Clerk note: In theory, through a series of usurpations, you could get the 6500 edits moved to the account that currently has 1700, if you prefer that name, but you won't be able to get all 8200 to the same account. Useight (talk) 20:01, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks to you both. It's my own fault anyway.
- This may seem strange - I don't know what software you have - but would it be possible to assign both to a new account (i.e. "simultaneously" reassign edits from the old account and the current account to a wholly new account)? Otherwise, I think it would be a developer job ... and I really don't think my couple of edits called that ;-)
- Much thanks regardless and sorry for pestering you with requests for something I messed up on. --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid (coṁrá) 23:45, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: Without developer intervention, unfortunately not. The software only allows one-to-one assignments, and this would requre many-to-one. Sorry. So, what would you like to do under the restrictions of the software? -- Avi (talk) 14:52, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
