- Didn't you just rename? –xenotalk 13:40, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, but I also just change my email address too. Polymathsj Talk 13:42, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how that's relevant? (Your email address does not need to match your username...) Name changes are not supposed to be entered into lightly, they may cause confusion and tie up the job queue. I will complete this change, but you will likely not be granted a third rename so please be certain this is the name you are going to stick with. –xenotalk 13:52, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
- I didn't change that yet. I'll do it now. Polymathsj Talk 14:01, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
