[edit] Requests for usurpation or deleting global accounts

Here you can request your account deletion and usurpation on wikis without active bureaucrats, or request the deletion of a global account if you need to be renamed or to usurp an account elsewhere. Please add new requests at the bottom!
This is a list of local pages where requests for renames can be made.
If you want to request the renaming of multiple accounts on wikis without local bureaucrats please use the format:

*{{Merging|YourName|language shortcut|project shortcut}}

example
===example user===
I want to be renamed to ... with the following accounts // I want to usurp the following accounts
*{{Merging|YourName|tpi|w}}
*{{Merging|YourName|ga|wikt}}
*{{Merging|YourName|gd|wikt}}
*{{Merging|YourName|fo|s}}

Please sign your requests with --~~~~, thank you!


[edit] Ace of Spades

The following discussion is closed.

I was able to put in requests for the other wikis, it's just this one I'm having trouble with:

Thanks. --The Ace of Spades(talk) 23:15, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

There is no account called "Ace of Spades" at trwikiquote. Are you sure you have provided accurate information? If you are logged in on your home wiki and are allowing cookies, you should be automatically logged in on that wiki when you visit it.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 18:37, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
I renamed that account, but hadn't updated this page yet. --Erwin 18:45, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Lwh

The following discussion is closed.

This account was created by user who is not currently active. Because of it I can't merge my account. Could somebody please do something with it? Cheers. --77.170.74.111 19:03, 26 October 2009 (UTC) incubator:User:Lwh

Hello, incubatorwiki has local bureaucrats, please ask for renames there, but please note that according to sulutil the incubator account is attached, just log in there and everything should work just fine, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 19:08, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
I'm sorry but I didn't specified my self enough. I have problem with Wikimedia account which is possessed by inactive user. --77.170.74.111 00:32, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
Can you please state clearly which wiki you are referring to? there are many wikis on the wikimedia.org domain.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 18:31, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Wat bedoel je precies? Volgens de status zijn de volgende accounts niet gekoppeld aan jouw globale account:
  • en.wikipedia.org
  • fr.wiktionary.org
  • www.mediawiki.org
  • meta.wikimedia.org
  • ms.wikipedia.org
  • zh.wikipedia.org
Al deze projecten hebben lokale bureaucraten. Dus je zult hen om hulp moeten vragen. Zie Index of pages where renaming can be requested voor een overzicht van pagina's waar je dat kunt doen. --Erwin 18:39, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
I'm referring to Wikimedia meta-wiki -> meta.wikimedia.org. Thank you for your attention and help. --77.170.74.111 01:52, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
I added your request to Meta:Changing username. One of the bureaucrats will help you then. --Erwin 14:45, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] MikyM

The following discussion is closed.

Hello! Best greeting. I have an account with username Milens on W. Commons. A few weeks ago, on sr.wikipedia, I've created global account with username MikyM. I would like to merge (and rename) the account Milens into my global account, if possible. Thank you! --MikyM 01:27, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

Best greetings MikyM, just go to commons:Commons:Changing username/Current requests and ask for rename of Your old username "Milens" to "MikyM", don't forget to confirm the rename while logged in with "Milens" too, so they know it is really Yours. After they renamed You, just go to commons:special:mergeaccount to merge it into Your global account. Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 15:48, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Virginia@eswikiversity

Status:    In progress

I want to usurp the following username:

Confirmation on s:es:User talk:Virginia#Global rename confirmation. Please ask me or user:Dferg if there is some inconvenient as he is the person who is helping me with the process. Thank you --Virginia 18:07, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

That account has edits. I'm not sure if we can usurp it. Opinions? --თოგო (D) 20:24, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
That account also has email enabled. I've emailed them about this. If there is no response in a week or so, I'd say go ahead.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 18:36, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] SUL rename

Please rename my SUL Maksatmp to Maksa. Maksatmp 22:44, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

If it is still not possible, please rename Maksatmp in all wikis without local bureaucrats (and usurp it here in meta). I have created SUL Maksatmp (with home ru-wiki) some months ago hoping to rename it afterwards, so it could be nice to move Maksatmp to Maksa in all Wikimedia projects (except for en, fi, fr and hu where I should ask to usurp existing names). Maksatmp 07:51, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
As you don't have contributions on most projects I suggest only requesting a name change at the English Wikipedia. You can do that at w:en:Wikipedia:Changing username. --Erwin 18:39, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
I have already requested the new name at the English Wikipedia because en:Maksa was not free. However, I have some edits at Swedish, Italian and some other projects and want to keep my contribution. Should I request rename at all of these projects or there is a possibility to rename the SUL Maksatmp? Thank you. Maksatmp, 18:18, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wanted to get name

I made user in Cantonese. I wanted to get name "Choung" because I have user name "Choung" in Wikipedia Japanese var. and English var. But who have it.

I asked "Please give me." But that "Choung" doesn't reply. I check,What did that "Choung edit any. That "Choung" did not edit. That "Choung" is not using.

Give me name "Choung" in Cauntnese!--Choung 14:16, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your give me.--Choung 14:37, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
You'll need to request this at the Chinese Wikipedia itself. You can do so at w:zh:Wikipedia:RENAME. --Erwin 18:39, 6 November 2009 (UTC)


[edit] Infinito

I'm trying to complete my SUL, so I'd like to usurp the following account:

Thanks, Infinito 20:21, 7 November 2009 (UTC) w:en:User:Infinito

That wiki has an active bureaucrat (last edit 11 October 2009), you should contact them at Disputatio Usoris:Adam Episcopus first, please. Thanks. Kylu 01:57, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wanted to get name

I wanted to get name "Choung" in Chinese Wikipedia because I have user name "Choung" in Wikipedia Japanese var. and English var. But who have it. I asked "Please give me." But that "Choung" doesn't reply. That "Choung" did not edit. That "Choung" is not using. What can I do anymore?--Choung 14:16, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

You already asked that above. Please contact a bureaucrat on the Chinese Wikipedia. --თოგო (D) 14:20, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
