Revision as of 12:54, 27 July 2012
![]() | Any requests for usurpation of global accounts with attachments on other projects should be made at meta:Steward Requests/Username changes. Only requests to usurp en.wiki accounts without significant attachments on other projects will be processed here. |
![]() | No English? En-0? Find an ambassador in your language to help. |
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.
Notes
- 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
- 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.
- Click here to place your request.
- Replace "
TARGET NAME
" with the username you wish to usurp. - Replace "
YOUR REASON
" with a description of why you want to usurp the account. - Leave the "Subject/headline" field blank.
- Replace "
- 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}}

- Preview the changes and make sure both names are spelled correctly. Click "Publish changes".
- 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 06:40:07, 18 June 2024 (UTC) (

- Reason: I had moved to Australia and may be stayed for a few years, and i will be much less active in wikipedia (no longer within 400). I want to separate the edit count . As I already created a new account, would i just request to ban matthew_hk user rights to edit main wikipedia, with reserved rights to edit and maintain my huge sandbox, and moved the user rights to new accounts but not the contribution. Lastly my name would on the name change list. Matthew_hk tc 10:08, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

- Note:
The target username has made edits to Wikipedia. Due to licensing concerns, this may be a barrier to usurpation.
This user was created less than 6 months ago, such usernames may not be usurped. You can file another request when the username is older than 6 months.
The target user has edited since this request was filed. Unless the edit was to give permission to usurp, this may be a barrier to usurpation.

Clerk note: No usurpation required. It would seem that you've created the "ACLEDA" account already, and that username is not allowed per the username policy as a group account, so your current username would be preferable if you plan to continue editing Wikipedia. If you don't, you can mark your userpage with
{{retired}}

- Datestamp: 00:46, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
- Reason: My current username, Guðsþegn (in Old Norse, meaning God's thane), contains two letters (Eth and Thorn) that are not on any keyboard I've ever used (you must use character map to find them). So, whenever I want to go to my user page on a new computer, or whenever I try to tell someone how to get to my user page, unnecessary difficulty is created. Therefore, I would like to alleviate the problem. The target name was created in 2006 and has 3 edits.
GUÐSÞEGN – UTEX – 00:46, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
- I would like to modify my request to be "usurp only" instead of usurp and change username. Per my stated reason, a redirect from the target username to my current username would accomplish my goal, and given that all the other wikis with my current username are owned by myself, an SUL with my current username would be easier. If this is too complicated of a request modification, then please carry on with the standard usurp as originally requested. Thanks. GUÐSÞEGN – UTEX – 01:45, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
- OK, I'm not trying to be wishy-washy here, but if you think (as a bureaucrat) that an SUL is possible with the target username, then please ignore my previous addendum and proceed with the usurp as originally requested. Thanks again. GUÐSÞEGN – UTEX – 02:00, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
- Reading through the target username contribs, only two are in article space from 2006 (the other is on a talk page in 2008), and all three can be fairly judged as minor and inconsequential. Of the two in article space, one is a link correction, the other a word-choice change (replacing "hurt" with "distressed"). GUÐSÞEGN – UTEX – 12:18, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

FarzanehSarafraz → Farzaneh
Status: In progress
- Current username: FarzanehSarafraz (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Target username: Farzaneh (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (advise user)
- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user, rename user
- Datestamp: 04:02, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
- Reason: My current username is my full name--first name and surname--and this makes me readily identifiable. On a few occasions this has limited my ability to contribute and participate in the discussions freely. A recent example is User_talk:FarzanehSarafraz#RE:_Adding_.22e.22_at_the_end_of_the_names where a user has argued that I should be spelling my own name differently after I raised concerns about how they had been moving pages to alternative spellings. I feel personally attacked by such arguments, and find it difficult to participate in a constructive discussion when my identity is exposed in this way. Thank you for your assistance.
- Note: The target user only has 5 total edits (2 visible) on dewiki and is blocked on dewiki for vandalism.
