Shortcuts
This page is for requests to take over an account name that is already registered. If you want your account renamed to a name that is still available, please use Special:GlobalRenameRequest or Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple.

This page is a forum in which users can request, and global renamers (including Stewards) familiar with local usurpation guidelines, can consider and carry out, the "usurpation" of usernames primarily held locally. This consists of renaming an existing account in order to vacate the username and allow another user to take it.

Please note that global accounts whose "home wiki" is another project or which have significant attachments on other projects cannot be usurped here; these requests must be made at meta:Steward requests/Username changes (see meta:Help:Unified login).

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.

  • The account you want to usurp must have the English Wikipedia as its "home wiki", i.e. or should be displayed next to the en.wikipedia.org entry for the account at Special:CentralAuth.
  • The account you want to usurp should have no edits or significant log entries to qualify for usurpation (though rare exceptions are made in some circumstances). This includes edits or log actions on other Wikimedia projects. These can be checked through Special:CentralAuth.
  • Please do not request usurpation of another account if your own user account is less than several months old, or barely used. In order to ensure that usurped usernames be put to good use, we prefer only to grant requests from reasonably well-established users.

Instructions

  1. Log in to your present account.
    • Please do not leave a talk page message or e-mail the target account yourself. If this becomes necessary, a user familiar with the usurpation process will do so.
  2. Click here to place your request.
    1. Replace "TARGET NAME" with the username you wish to usurp.
    2. Replace "YOUR REASON" with a description of why you want to usurp the account.
    3. Leave the "Subject/headline" field blank.
If the URL above does not work, simply copy the following text, click "edit this page" and paste it at the bottom of the page. Modify it as indicated.
{{subst:usurp|TARGET NAME|reason=YOUR REASON}}
Advanced usage
For requests involving renaming an account other than your logged in account, use this:
{{subst:usurp|CURRENT NAME|TARGET NAME|reason=YOUR REASON}}
For usurp only requests, which leaves your logged in account untouched, set the usurponly parameter to yes:
{{subst:usurp|TARGET NAME|usurponly=yes|reason=YOUR REASON}}
To add an optional non default signature, use the sig parameter:
{{subst:usurp|TARGET NAME|reason=YOUR REASON|sig=OPTIONAL SIGNATURE}}
  1. Preview the changes and make sure both names are spelled correctly. Click "Publish changes".
  2. Your request is now complete and ready to be processed after the hold period (usually about a week). If the owner of the target account does not object, a global renamer will fulfill your request provided other requirements are met. Do not be surprised when you find yourself unable to log in to your old account.
  • Requests that do not adhere to these instructions or that are grossly malformed are subject to removal.

Please place your request in the section for the current day, at the bottom of the list. It is currently 01:51:32, 8 June 2024 (UTC) (Update).

Tomayres → Mato

Status:     In progress

Tomayres (talk) 13:49, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Note:
  • The target username has made edits to Wikipedia. Due to licensing concerns, this may be a barrier to usurpation.
  • Target user has 6 undeleted edits and 0 deleted edits. No SUL account exists for the target user (unattached accounts may exist). Requesting user has 4207 undeleted edits and 217 deleted edits, for a total of 4424 edits. An SUL account (primary enwiki) exists for the requesting user, with 4453 total edits on 15 wikis. AnomieBOT⚡ 13:59, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Have you considered the fact that you might not to be able to secure the name globally (sulutil:Mato)? You might want to interface with the hu:user:Mato, who has recently registered to see if they are willing to relinquish the name. The remaining global usages appear to be dormant. –xenotalk 04:38, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Have left a usurp notice at hu:user:Mato's talk page, however I really don't use the other wikis at the moment and so I'm happy for a local change. Would this result in the deletion of this username from the other wikis? (this would be preferable). Tomayres (talk) 18:29, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Responding to your question: No, you would need to seek a rename on each project individually. –xenotalk 18:30, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • OK, so I'd like to keep my request for the name change on enwiki if this is possible. Thank you. Tomayres (talk) 18:33, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
