Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations

"WP:USURP" redirects here. For the guide regarding usurping a page title, see WP:USURPTITLE.

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}}

3. Preview the changes and make sure both names are spelled correctly. Click "Publish changes".
4. 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 21:44:32, 14 June 2024 (UTC) ().

• Datestamp: 10:37, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
• Reason: I registered to Wikipedia many, many years ago using the name Lieven, but I did not write anything at that time and forgot about the account. A long time later, I noticed that and did not remember my password, so I registered again with this new name here, LLieven. My request is to merge these two accounts into Lieven, because I'm using the same name in all the other Wikipedias I'm working at. I'm sure this will work, since the first "Lieven"-account has no contributions, and I'm sure I might be able to answer any security questions there, if available. BTW, the password request did not work, apparently the email address I entered is not working anymore. Maybe it's an old address I'm not using any more. Thanks for any assistance. -- LLieven (talk) 10:37, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

 Bureaucrat note: Are you Lieven on the German Wikipedia? That user has a better claim to the unified login. I suspect that you are, due to the common interest in Klingon language, but a confirmation edit there would let us move forward with this. Pakaran 15:47, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I am Lieven and I have just done the SUL-procedure from my german account. Where do you want me to post that "confirmation edit"? -- LLieven (talk) 16:43, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for being unclear. Just edit anywhere on de (your user talk page, the sandbox, whatever) with something like "I am LLieven on the English Wikipedia". Ideally in English, so that it's easy for us to read. Pakaran 16:58, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

• Reason: I wish to secure all account names which might be used to impersonate my main name of "Love Robin" (with-space), as well as doppleganger account (currently in the renaming process) of "LoveRobin" (no-space), which would make this usurpation an additional doppleganger account for the sole purpose of preventing impersonation. I actually believe the Target Name ("Loverobin", no-space, lower-'r') was made by me, but any attempts to prompt email reminders fails to show in any of my current emails. User:Avi recommended I use this process to secure the Target. QUESTION: would "Love robin" (with-space, lower-'r') leave me open to impersonation as well, that I should secure it as well? Please & Thank You.

I realize that I haven't exactly followed protocol, but I'm not entirely clear on what it is I'm supposed to do in this situation, or if there is anything I can do. Also I'm not sure which of the templates I'm supposed to use in my situation to verify that I own the other account. Also, would a "usurp only" request allow me to keep both usernames? Because I would like to do this if possible, but if not I would be totally happy to just switch everything over to Dmatamales. Sorry for the many questions and breaches of protocol and thanks in advance for your understanding and help. Mac4drew (talk) 04:05, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

• Reason: The account was made extremely long ago when I was young and foolish, and it currently holds a lot of compromising information about myself which I fear can potentially be used to harm and endanger myself, and may also be damaging for future aspirations (e.g. job prospects). I do intend to use my current account for editing on Wikipedia.

• Reason: I wish to secure account names which might be used to impersonate me. User:ZigZagStudios was my first active user account, which eventually I change to synced to my General Online Persona of User:Love Robin (with-space), which will remain my serious editing account. I then re-made ZigZagStudios to secure it against impersonations (having made over 200 edits with it); also, I was granted permission to use the "fursona" of the BlackRabbit Furry Character "Zig Zag", so I'm rather protective of the name(s). So while I am also in the process of securing potential doppelganger accounts of "Love Robin" (User:LoveRobin(no-space), and in process of usurping User:Loverobin(no-space, lower-'r'), I would also like to secure doppels of my firt account. There will be transparency as I shall openly link accounts. Chances are I may at times use ZigZag for non-editing "casual" researching. Please and Thank you.
