Do not be surprised if you suddenly cannot log in to your old account; this merely indicates that you should log in under your new user name as the request has been fulfilled. |
Current requests
Add new requests to the bottom of the page.
Certified.Gangsta → NWA.Rep
- Current name: Certified.Gangsta (talk · contribs · logs · block log)
- Requested name: NWA.Rep (change username)
- Reason: This change is requested due to ridicule from other users. I wish to change my username as a gesture to a change of my attitude on wikipedia. Concerned about my block log are addressed in
parole: User:Bishonen/ArbCom appeal for Certified.Gangsta [1] All other blocks are either 1 second block to apologize for previous bad blocks and well, the bad blocks. Thanks--Certified.Gangsta (talk) 01:37, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Certified.Gangsta (talk · contribs · count · logs · block log · lu · rfas · rfb · arb · rfc · lta · socks) should not be renamed.
- This user has an extensive block log[2][3][4][5] and a long history of vandalism sockpuppetry per Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Certified.Gangsta and Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Certified.Gangsta-Ideogram. In addition, this user has already been renamed twice. See
- Freestyle.king (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
- Bonafide.hustla (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
- N1u (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) sockpuppet
- Certified.Gangsta (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Renaming this user would be inappropriate and should not be done. Master
- I think because of the block log and POV issues, it would be best not to rename. That being said, I'm admittedly very biased on this matter as we've had our conflicts. Wizardman 11:49, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
Ddrman642 → FindDDRhands
- Current name: Ddrman642 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: FindDDRhands (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
- Reason: FindDDRhands seems easier to remember than Ddrman642 . i can't think of a good signature 00:39, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Anacrossan → NEW
- Current name: Anacrossan (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Please fill out this template correctly, replacing NEW with your requested username.
- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- For global renamer: rename user
- Reason: Reason for requested renaming. Anacrossan (talk) 04:41, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
I did request earlier to change my username to lolopapalangi, please cancel the request.I do aplogise for the incovenience to you. Thanks.
Bureaucrat note: - it has already been changed. Will the new name be okay? Kingturtle (talk) 05:01, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
worsam → petitmichel
- Current name: Worsam (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Petitmichel (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
- Reason: Used my surname before I realised it should not be my user name. Worsam (talk) 14:14, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: I reformatted your request. Is it correct? Kingturtle (talk) 14:23, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Clerk note: The requested username is already registered; see Special:CentralAuth. Please choose another name which is not already in use. bibliomaniac15 01:17, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
- The username does seem to be usurpable, though. bibliomaniac15 04:59, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
- Clerk note: The requested username is already registered; see Special:CentralAuth. Please choose another name which is not already in use. bibliomaniac15 01:17, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
NAVIN BVR → NAVIN SHETTY
- Current name: NAVIN BVR (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: NAVIN SHETTY (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
- Reason: Created user name long back, without knowing much about Wikipedia, after getting seriously involved in editing subjects inserting some required images, realized real user name is good to have and its a unique.
- Clerk note: Navin bvr (talk · contribs) made this request, was the capitals in the header a mistake? Rudget (logs) 18:45, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: Rudget's question is important. The new username will be case sensitive. Kingturtle (talk) 20:16, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Ashishbhatnagar72 → आशीष भटनागर
- Current name: Ashishbhatnagar72 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: आशीष भटनागर (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
- Reason: I am having a/c with name Ashishbhatnagar72. Now in Hindi I had been using an a/c named आशीष भटनागर & then unified a/c there. So I want now to have a single a/c in eng wiki too, named आशीष भटनागर; rather than two existing a/cs.--आशीष भटनागर (talk) 00:57, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- Clerk note: Just so I have this right, you're saying both the above accounts are yours? If that's the case I'd like for the other account to post confirming this. Wizardman 11:52, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
Osumc → OSUMC
- Current name: Osumc (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: OSUMC (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
- Reason: OSUMC is an acronym for The Ohio State University Medical Center. When the name was sumbitted, we did not know Wikipedia would capitalize the first letter. If given the choice, we would prefer all letters to be capitalized. Osumc (talk) 19:23, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- Clerk note: The username appears to be promotional. Use of a company, organization, group, website, or product name as a username is prohibited by the username policy. Please choose another name. Rudget (logs) 19:36, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- Not done Do not use your account for a group of people to use. Do not use your account to edit the OSUMC article. And as Rudget said, find a neutral username. Kingturtle (talk) 19:42, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
Amirfikrie → Amir Fikrie
- Current name: Amirfikrie (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Amir Fikrie (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
- Reason: It better reflects my name than the current one. Amirfikrie (talk) 21:14, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- It is not possible for bureaucrats to rename accounts that have already been unified across Wikimedia projects. You will first need to have your unified account deleted by making a request at m:Steward requests/SUL requests before I can perform this request. WjBscribe 22:14, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
SAM415 → Sammy4
- Current name: SAM415 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Sammy4 (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
- Reason: Reason for requested renaming. SAM415 (talk) 03:35, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
- Not done The name sammy4 (talk · contribs) is already taken. As the account has no edits, it can be usurped; to do so, place a request at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations. Kingturtle (talk) 04:34, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
GO-HERE → Implosive Endothermic
- Current name: GO-HERE (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Requested name: Implosive Endothermic (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
- Reason:
I used user:go-here.nl for some time. This was considered promotional. I have now moved to user:GO-HERE, this was also a wrong name for reasons not further elaborated upon. So now I would like to move to user:Implosive Endothermic. I was under the impression I could just create a new account but a red text appeared saying I didn't create [this] account jet. Assuming I didn't I would like to move the other 2 over there. If I did make the account already then user:Endothermic Implosive is also good. Thanks.84.104.135.195 (talk) 16:36, 2 July 2008 (UTC) - Clerk note: I can confirm that Implosive Endothermic (talk · contribs) is currently registered. Rudget (logs) 20:48, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
It refused to let me log in. I decided that just creating a new account in my real name was easier. Sorry to have bothered you. (retracts request) Gdewilde (talk) 01:06, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

- Clerk note: The name Anonymous has already been taken, but it appears that it has no edits. The name change should be requested at WP:USURP. Useight (talk) 03:51, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
- Not done Kingturtle (talk) 12:32, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

- How about DCFan101 ? If it's still not possible, DChannel101. --Gary0203 (talk) 23:37, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
- DCFan101 yes. DChannel101 is just as bad as your original requested name. -Jéské (v^_^v Damn spy sappin' mah sentry!) 23:42, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
- OK. Use DCFan101 then. --Gary0203 (talk) 01:28, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- How about DCFan101 ? If it's still not possible, DChannel101. --Gary0203 (talk) 23:37, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
