- Renamer note: According to our records, it looks like you've been renamed in the past. Please note that username changes take up valuable server resources and are not something to treat lightly. Are you sure that the requested username is the one that you really want and will stick with for some time? —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 12:53, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
- {{notdone}} per k6ka. MBisanz talk 23:19, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
- I don't think it's necessary to close this request so soon... after all, it was just a question. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 03:15, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
- Fair. I tend to assume people will just file a new request, but you have a point. MBisanz talk 18:00, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
- I guess it won't be much of a problem if it can't be done. But thank you anyways. TheStebieG (talk) 07:34, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
- @TheStebieG: No, this request can be done, just need you to confirm that the username you're requesting is the one you really want, since you've already been renamed in the past before. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 13:30, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

- Renamer note: The requested username has a "bot" suffix which may be confused for being a bot account. Unless the account is actually being used to run an approved bot, it may not have such a username. See Wikipedia:Username_policy#Misleading_usernames. Please pick a new name. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 12:21, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

Wetaskiwincity → Carscostless

- Reason: Edit purposes Wetaskiwincity (talk) 18:40, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
- @Wetaskiwincity: It looks like your requested name is promotional or a role account, and as such doesn't meet the local username policy. "Name at Carscostless" would work, or some other separate username for just you to use. Please let me know which alternative you would like to go with, thanks.
