Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple

Changing username/Simple
This page is a forum in which users can request, and global renamers (including stewards) can consider and carry out, requests to rename accounts to usernames that are not yet taken on any Wikimedia project. While global renamers carry out renames, other users (including bots) help by "clerking" the mechanics of this process. If you wish to help as a clerk, please read the linked page carefully. Instructions For help 'vanishing' from Wikipedia, please see courtesy vanishing. Once you have decided on the name you would like: Read this page first. You must be aware of, and understand, all of that information before requesting a username change Check to make sure this username is not already in use. Do this by searching for the name here. If the name appears in the results, even if on another Wikimedia project, it is taken. Do not create an account under the new name or move/redirect your userpages. We'll do that for you. Log in with your present username in order to place your request. Renames will not be approved if the requester is not logged in. Click here to place your request. Add your desired username after NEW= Add a reason for the change after REASON= Do not change anything after CURRENT= Make sure that you have spelt your desired name correctly, including capitalization and spacing. Save the page. If your request is submitted malformed, please remedy it according to this page. Check back on this page periodically to answer any questions that may arise regarding your request. Please be patient. It may take a few days for your request to be completed. If you do not answer any questions, your request may be declined due to no response. Once your request has been completed, please do not remove or change your request. It will be archived automatically by a bot. Requests that do not adhere to these instructions or that are grossly malformed are subject to removal.
Important Notes	After you are renamed...
Due to technical limitations, usernames may not start with a lowercase letter. However, you may use the template {{lowercase title}} on your user and user talk pages, and change your signature to reflect your preference. Underscores and spaces are considered identical by the MediaWiki software. Use of a company, organization, group, website, or product name as a username is prohibited by the username policy. Please understand the implications of using your real name before requesting a name change to it.	... your name will be changed to the new one in the page history of every page you've edited. ... your userpage and any subpages will be moved to the new name automatically. Please do not attempt to move them yourself. ... links left by your previous signatures will still point to the old userpage; however, a redirect will be left behind to your new userpage. ... your request will be automatically moved to the archives in the interest of transparency.

Jokerswhoop → Joker's Whoop

• Requested name: Joker's Whoop (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
• Datestamp: 21:09, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
• Reason: I mistook it for a social media username where spaces and punctuation are not applicable. The original name is a two letter word, Joker's Whoop (which is an indie pop band). I really need to get the name corrected before starting on anything. Jokerswhoop (talk) 21:09, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Robot clerk note: The username Jokerswhoop does not exist.—^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 21:10, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

 Renamer note: Please note that, according to our username policy, usernames that are the names of groups, organizations, companies, etc. are not permissible. All usernames must represent an individual; thus, while "Example Industries" is not an acceptable username (because it is the name of a company), "John at Example Industries" is acceptable because it represents an individual within a company, not the company as a whole. Thus, you may want to file a new request with a more appropriate username.

Also, just as a heads up — if you're going to write about your band, please be sure you review our policy on having a conflict of interest, and do note that you may face some opposition if you're going to write about it anyway. When in doubt, feel free to ask at the Teahouse, which is a friendly place for newcomers. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 01:23, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

@CanaryBot: If you're planning on using the bot on this account, then feel free to just add {{Bot|username of your main account|status=unapproved}} to your bot's userpage in the meantime, since it'll waste less server resources renaming you to one username and then renaming you back. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 23:57, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

@Mujtaba ji: You requested a username change before just less than 24 hours ago. Are you sure that this is the username you really want? Because repeated username change of one account is just a waste of system resources. Please think carefully if you really want this username. Thanks, Pokéfan95 (talk) 06:28, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Yes, i really want this as a last -- 🍁 Mujtaba 🌴 06:48, 31 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mujtaba ji (talk • contribs)

@Mujtaba ji: Ok, but your block on pnb.wikipedia is a red flag for me. Do you know why you're blocked on there? Pokéfan95 (talk) 06:50, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

I know, user:Pokéfan95.because i saw one article with two different names. And i tried to Redirect that page but i removed all the text. And then Abbas dhothar blocked me.-- 🍁 Mujtaba 🌴 06:56, 31 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mujtaba ji (talk • contribs)

Oh, that was an incorrect block. The blocking admin didn't assumed good faith. I will discuss it with the blocking admin, but global renaming can be done now. Pokéfan95 (talk) 07:13, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Okay,  Done, but this absolutely must be your last request. Global rename is not a game. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 10:54, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
