Viveka~enwiki → Viveka
- Current name: Viveka~enwiki (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Viveka (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: 14:07, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- Reason: Hello. I have been renamed from Viveka, due to an apparent conflict with a username on the Russian wikipedia. However the links to the Russian account and its edits from the central auth page show up empty – nothing there. Since the conflict is not real, may I be renamed back? Viveka~enwiki (talk) 14:07, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- The requested username is already registered; see Special:Listusers. However, as this requested account has made no edits, it meets the criteria for being usurped; if you wish to usurp it, please read and follow the process at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations. If you do not wish to usurp the username, please choose another name to be renamed to.
- There is already a global account registered for Viveka (primary wiki: ruwiki). --Legobot (talk) 14:10, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- @Viveka~enwiki: Actually, the Russian account has 127 edits, while yours only has about 90 or so edits. It was considered to have the "stronger claim" and thus you got renamed instead. Sorry. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 14:24, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- @Viveka~enwiki: you have a strong case here to seek the restoration of your name; you've been using it since 2003 and the ru user appears to have had all of their edits deleted and is now inactive. Please make this request at m:SRUC and feel free to copy my comments there. –xenotalk 14:29, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

- Comment - Judging from your userpage, you may have mistaken what Wikipedia is for. It is not a place to write about yourself (like Facebook or LinkedIn) but is an online encyclopedia where people write about other topics. We have strict rules about conflicts of interest which preclude writing about yourself. WJBscribe (talk) 11:34, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
