Azeez

Status:    In progress

Hi. I am Azeez on the English Wikipedia, my home-wiki. I want to usurp the following accounts:

--Azeez 10:42, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done for mlwikt but Not done for all others as they have local bureaucrats.Jusjih 20:32, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rehman

Status:    In progress

Hello. I have requested the following accounts be usurped in March 2010, but the editors here declined this, stating that I need to contact local bureaucrats. I have then contacted bureaucrats from the de and az wikipedias, but have not received any responses. I wish to usurp the following accounts:

Thank you. Rehman(+) 02:19, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. The both users you've contacted are inactive or retired. For dewiki is better if you ask here and for azwiki you can contact the other bureaucrat on his talk page. We are sorry but we are not allowed to rename users in wikis with active bureaucrats. Thanks, --dferg ☎ talk 08:32, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, I completely understand. Thank you. Rehman(+) 10:13, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Done for dewiki. Raymond 09:27, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again. User Sortilegus on az.wiki don't seem to be able to help. :( Any suggestions? Rehman(+) 01:29, 20 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like he also ignored a message from Kylu. Rehman(+) 00:34, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Joy

Status:    Not done

I just happened to notice that de:Spezial:Beiträge/Joy includes my edits, even though my account hasn't been globalized. I never underwent the account unification procedure because of that Bangladeshi user that turns out to be a bot - per http://toolserver.org/~vvv/sulutil.php?user=Joy But if this kind of moving of edits around is legitimate and is going to happen in the future, I wish to be safe from those other owners of Joy accounts having my work attributed to them, or even vice versa - it only seems fair. Please advise. TIA. --Joy 11:30, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

User Joy from dewiki is the same like the Joy on hrwiki IMO. Or can you log in on dewiki? The problem is that Joy from hrwiki has unified his account. No he hasn´t, but he is using this account on dewiki. --WizardOfOz talk 11:37, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. It is because those edits where imported from another project: example. — Dferg ☎ 09:33, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Frankly, there's not much you can do. You could request usurpation of Joy@dewiki, but that would only solve the problem for one specific project. Though it probably is one of the few projects that actually imports pages. In any case, this bug is known as bugzilla:8537 and has been closed as WONTFIX by Brion. In his comment he stating that it is "[p]retty much a non-issue, and will go away entirely shortly." Seeing as we don't necessarily have full SUL conflict resolution, as in your case, that means that these mis-attributions will continue to happen. As stewards we can't do anything about that. --Erwin 17:14, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

SlimVirgin

Status:    Not done

Hi, I'm an editor on the English Wikipedia, looking for help so that I can complete my unified log-in. Someone has set up SlimVirgin accounts on five other wikis. I've tried at various points over the years to have these removed by admins/bureaucrats on these wikis, but I either got no response or didn't understand the response. Is this something a steward can help with? When I try to unify my log-in, I get a message saying these accounts are preventing it:

  • hr.wikipedia.org [1]
  • it.wikipedia.org [2]
  • no.wikipedia.org [3]
  • pl.wikipedia.org [4]
  • zh.wikipedia.org [5]

SlimVirgin (talk) 01:42, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but I didn't mean I didn't understand the language. I just didn't understand what they were advising. :) SlimVirgin (talk) 23:20, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I've managed to get another two three four usurped, so maybe I'll be able to manage the others after all. SlimVirgin (talk) 21:26, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I closed this one. --Erwin 17:15, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Just noting that I managed to get the final one usurped today. SlimVirgin (talk) 00:44, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

William S. Saturn

Status:    Done

I have accounts as William S. Saturn on Wikipedia, Commons, WikiNews and German Wikipedia as seen here. It says I have a global account, but I cannot see where. I would like to globally unify these accounts, but when asked for the password, I am told it is wrong, however I know it is correct and have made sure many times over. Could someone help me unify these accounts? I don't know what I need to do. Thank you.--William Saturn 21:28, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your global account wasn't attached to any local accounts. Therefore, I deleted the global account so you can re-create it from Wikipedia and attach the above mentioned ones. --Erwin 17:17, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nevit

Status:    Done

I need to usurp the following account in order to finish my unified login:

Hello Barek. I have sent an email to the local bureaucrat Derbeth because of a notice on his talk page. If we get no reply in ~1 week we will usurp that account. Regards, --dferg ☎ talk 08:46, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Usurping on pl.wikibooks has been just finished. --Derbeth 09:13, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
