This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 212.17.141.54 (talk) at 03:32, 23 June 2008 (→‎None (SUL request) → Dugnad). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

New requests should be made at WP:CHU or WP:USURP as appropriate.


This page was a temporary forum for the processing of username changes that related to the migration to single unified login (SUL) between June 2008 and April 2010. Prior to this, it served as a holding pen for requests that could not be completed due to bugs in the SUL renaming process.

Instructions

For the instructions that were in use at the time this page was closed to new requests, see Wikipedia:Changing username/SUL/Front matter/Instructions

Notes

  • When the rename has been completed, your account will have been renamed, and any contributions you have made (including deleted contributions) will be reattributed to your new account as a background process. Your account preferences, watchlist contents, password, etc. will all be preserved, and your user and user talk pages will have been moved to the new name.
    Note: The process responsible for reallocating old contributions is currently dependent upon the job queue mechanism. As such, you may find old contributions do not immediately appear under your new account; this is perfectly normal. Updates should take at most a day to complete, although the length of time will vary according to the size of the job queue on this wiki, and the status of the server processes which process this queue.
  • The change will appear in the user rename log and the request will be moved to the archives in the interest of transparency. It is not possible to rename accounts without an entry being created in the log.
  • This change will not affect signatures you have already left on talk pages, or other places where you signed your username with ~~~~. Those pages will continue to display your signature (including the link to your old username) unless edited manually.
  • Be aware: Once you have been renamed, your old account will no longer exist and may potentially be recreated by a third party. This is true even if your old account pages have been redirected towards your new account. To guard against impersonation, you may wish to recreate the old account yourself.

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.

  • The target username meets the requirements for usurpation.
  • The current owner of the target username does not have an email address specified. RichardΩ612 Ɣ ɸ 20:50, May 27, 2008 (UTC)

 On hold - If you want to transfer the contributions you made as Kyro38, you will need to ask a steward to delete your global account before you can be renamed locally. Requests can be made at m:SR/SUL. If not, the current User:Kyro can be moved out of the way, allowing you to login with that name. WjBscribe 00:48, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ziko-en → Ziko

 On hold - You will need to ask a steward to delete your global account before you can be renamed locally. Requests can be made at m:SR/SUL. WjBscribe 22:53, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I don't know what you mean by "global account".--Ziko-en (talk) 11:52, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A global account is what is created when you use Special:Mergeaccount to merge all your Wikimedia accounts into one 'global' or 'unified' account that you can use on any WM project. Before any accounts with the same name as this global one can be moved, a steward needs to delete it (the global account). Requests can be made here. Once this move/usurpation has completed, you can use Mergeaccount again to reunify your accounts including the one here. RichardΩ612 Ɣ ɸ 12:13, May 30, 2008 (UTC)

Note:
  • The target username has made edits to Wikipedia. Due to licensing concerns, this may be a barrier to usurpation.
  • User also has deleted contributions. Rudget (Help?) 09:38, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Deleted contrib was one article that was deleted two minutes later under A1. However, creating an article is VERY significant. hbdragon88 (talk) 09:48, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, but just flagging attention to it anyway. Rudget (Help?) 09:50, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Feuer → LoKi

I am an active Russian Wikipedia user. Sometimes I also edit English Wikipedia, but pretty seldom - it is mostly wikification, interwiki, etc. I know there's an active English Wikipedia user Loki (with the small "k"), but I request for "LoKi" (with the large "K"). Can I be renamed inspite of this similarity? Feuer (talk) 11:57, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note:
  • The target username meets the requirements for usurpation.
  • The current owner of the target username does not have an email address specified. - User:Loki's last edit was in 2007 so it shouldn't be a problem --Chris 12:13, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold - the similarity is no issue, but you will need to ask a steward to delete your global account before you can be renamed locally. Requests can be made at m:SR/SUL. WjBscribe 20:27, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia says, that my username (LoKi) is now active in all projects. Does it mean, that the process has completed for me? Feuer (talk) 17:18, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You can edit as Loki now. However, if you want your contributions from Feuer transfered to Loki, your global account must be deleted first. WjBscribe 17:27, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Apple2 → Apple

I'm Apple, a sysop of Vietnamese Wikipedia. Would you please help me to usurp an account Apple on English Wikipedia. This account has only 8 edits and has been inactive for more 2 years (last edit: 17 September 2005). After completely usurping, please merge my current account (user:Apple2) and user:Apple together.
