- For global renamer: rename user
- Reason: punctuation change for readability (all lower case, please)
M. James Roth (talk) 02:29, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: The requested username is the same as your current name, aside from the first letter being in lowercase. Due to technical limitations, usernames must start with an uppercase letter. However, you may use the template {{lowercase title}} on your user and user talk pages, and change your signature to reflect your preference. MBisanz talk 02:32, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
- Clerk note: Actually, he wants the "j" and "r" decapitalized, which is acceptable and possible. –Juliancolton | Talk 03:29, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
- No, he wants the M, J and R decap'd. MBisanz talk 05:33, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
- The name still is not the same because he's not asking for just the M to be decapitalized. I agree with Juliancolton. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 23:47, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: Can the user please confirm if you would be happy with an uppercase first letter, but lowercase j and r? We dislike performing multiple name changes for the same user, which is why MBisanz is being so careful not to just perform a change that you may still be unhappy with. --Dweller (talk) 12:30, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- For global renamer: rename user
- Reason: I have the username NShunsuke in the Japanese Wikipedia and I want to use the unified login, and it is also confusing to use different usernames in different languages, so I'm thinking of unifying the usernames. Nshunsuke (talk) 14:26, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

- Reason: This current username is near to my real name. And I was renamed to "Ashtray" in Japanese Wikipedia. MSYK-MZM (talk) 13:04, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: I could do this, but perhaps you're not aware of the availability of a single login name for all Wikipedia sites? Request here the same name (exactly) that you have in Japanese Wikipedia, leave a note on your Japanese talk page that you agree to this move and post the diff here and you'll have one username in both and the ability to switch between them without logging in and out. --Dweller (talk) 12:27, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
