Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations
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.

None (SUL request) → Striker
Status: In progress

- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user
- Datestamp: 04:45, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
- Confirmation link: here
- Reason: In the past, when I used to only contribute to the Portuguese Wiktionary, the other Striker accounts weren't a real issue, but since I joined SWMT, the need to usurp those accounts emerged. I have came to many WMF projects to request the usurpation and now I arrived here. The holder of en:User:Striker is a very occasional contributor. He has made few edits in the last years, 3 in 2010 and 5 in 2009. I'm way more active tham him. I wounder if there's a possibility for me to edit here with the same username I use in all other projects to be able to acquire global rights (like global rollback) in the near future, not to mention that reverting vandalism in multiple wikis is impractical with different usernames for each project. I know your response will likely be negative. Notwithstanding I have to ask. Thank you for your comprehension.

- Datestamp: 16:39, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
- Reason: When I created my account, I misspelled my name, not knowing that it contained an e. As I am a stickler for spelling and grammar, it is slightly embarassing to me to edit Wikipedia with a misspelled name. A previous request was denied, as I had not yet proven myself through multiple edits. I now wish to try again, having made more than 50 edits, with (hopefully) more to come.
