:Since the account on the home eswiki has been already usurped and there is no edits, I think I will do no harm if I delete the SUL. Bureaucrats of enwiki have agreed to usurp the account [[:en:Wikipedia:Changing_username/Usurpations|if SUL is deleted]]. So, I will resolve the ''chicken and egg'' problem by deleting the SUL.

I want to usurp the following accounts with 0 edits in projects without bureaucrats

--L 15:53, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It appears zh-yue wikipedia has a local bureaucrat still, please place a request at zh-yue:Wikipedia:改用戶名 and give him some time to respond.
Russian Wikibooks done - No activity on the account since its creation in 2007, no email set. Kylu 16:11, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
thank you for ru.books. i have placed a request for zh.yue on the local request page on 12 sept: [1] in the past requests on this page have been answered quickly (on same day), but my request has got no reply (neither positive nor negative) until now. can you do something about it?
i have also made requests in a number of other projects. some with success, but many without any reaction:
  • mediawikiwiki: on sept 2 [2], local user has 16 edits, but all of them vandalism (blanking of pages).
  • eowiki: on sept 10 [3]
  • arwiki: on sept 1 [4]
  • nds-nlwiki: first crat sent me to second (and only other) crat, on second crats talk page some diskussion with another user, but no reaction from crat [5]
  • some more requests in the last days
You may want to consider just asking in that section, "Do you mind if the Stewards perform this rename?" ... if there's no response in a few weeks, they probably don't care. There's quite a few folks who take up the mantle of bureaucrat without understanding that it's little more than a new set of annoyances, I think. :) Kylu 16:24, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have found another account on a wiki without crat:

--L 11:11, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

--62.226.141.119 16:24, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done the io.wiki and nov.wiki--Nick1915 - all you want 16:43, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Some more wikis without reaction from the local crat:

Any others, or can we archive this section? Kylu 12:15, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
--L
I think the usurpation on nds-nl offended the local administrator, as he left a question about it. I'll abstain from the rest of these until the matter is cleared up, I think. There's plenty of other stewards, though. Kylu 04:13, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
@Kylu: Please check again: Erik Warmelink (also: ErikWarmelink) is not an admin. I asked both crats on the wiki, both they did not answer. Erik was the only on to answer: at first he talked in favour of a 4 year waiting time but than changed to "I am OK with the usurpation." see: http://nds-nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overleg_gebruker:Servien#usurp_L
Does this clear up matters? --L
Correct on the non-adminness, but the sequence of events is that the question was posed after his being OK with the usurpation. Anyway, I'd rather get a response from him first, as lack of adminness doesn't make his opinion less valid. Kylu 11:06, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done at es.wikiversity since their bureaucrats does not respond to communications and are long time inactive. --dferg ☎ talk 23:14, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

thank you. --L 10:17, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Now, which wikis are still open or can this be closed? --თოგო (D) 16:24, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These are still open:
SJ · talk | translate 00:17, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
For eswiki please post at es:WP:CNU. I'm no longer a 'crat there so I can not help there. -- Dferg ☎ talk 12:24, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

PrinceMathew

Status:    Not done

Username was usurped on en.wiki with his blessing but global account still exists. Will ask owner to post here to certify. –xeno 14:14, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kindly note that my user identity is not abandoned, it is just renamed to InarZan2. I don't care what you do with the old username, but I want the global account in the name InarZan2. Could you please rename my global account to "InarZan2"? PrinceMathew 14:54, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
We can't rename global accounts. Please rename all accounts where you have contributions under "PrinceMathew" to "InarZan2" as you want, visit special:mergeaccount as InarZan2 to create a new global account, then return here to request deletion of the old global account. Thank you. Kylu 15:54, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Gus

Status:    In progress

Hello. I want to request the usurpation of the username Gus on pt.wikipedia.org. I have the Gus username on SUL and most of the accounts related to it. Thanks. --Gus 21:35, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Account has 60 edits on ptwiki. I'm afraid this might not be done. I'll be looking if a local policy allows it on the other hand. --dferg ☎ talk 10:39, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The Gus account that belonged to Gus (hernoemd) was recently added to my SUL account and it had almost the same edit count as the Gus account here. --Gus 19:20, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yuma

Status:    In progress

Request the deletion (and/or block) of a global account.

Already renamed in my home wiki [6], here on meta [7], and in the main projects. Already unified as Larry Yuma [8]. If possible, I'll need rename on three one more project where bureaucrats are inactive (see also my -messy- requests here):

About wikis where I have minor edits, there's no problem in losing it. The main need is to 'archive' this account, possibly saving my edits in oldiwikisource and la.wiki, in last instance pt.wiki too... but only if the workload in not too heavy. But in fact what I care the most is closing this old "Yuma" account, possibly blocking it. --Yuma 17:48, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've left a message in ThomasV's talk page. Hope that he responds. -- Dferg ☎ talk 23:01, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Computerwiz908

Status:    Done

I want to be renamed to Logan with the following accounts // I want to usurp the following accounts

--Computerwiz908 03:32, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Signing in as Logan to confirm. This is for a SUL request. Logan Talk Contributions 03:33, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think ml.wiki does have local bureaucrats. Frozen Windwant to be chilly? 10:28, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please request here for mlwiki. --Jyothis 03:34, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the link. I have added it to the Index of pages where renaming can be requested. Logan Talk Contributions 00:04, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
First request has been proceeded , second one has active crats therefore nothing possible from here and for the third the wiki is not Part of SUL and seems suffers from some DB issues Mardetanha talk 23:01, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Liana

Status:    Not done

I want to usurp the following accounts (again) - I placed a request before and it was done; however, I don't know what happen, but I suddenly found that I cannot log back in the portugal wikipedia.

--Liana 23:28, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Usurpation was correctly done and a local account was automatically created from the global [9]. Please try to log in locally or recover the password from ptwiki. Also: in cA I do not see any account listed for you in pt.wikipedia. Odd bug indeed. --dferg ☎ talk 16:22, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No response, not done. -- Dferg ☎ talk 13:39, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Byl

Status:    Done

I want to usurp the following account on pt.wiki for SUL. I've posted the request here because I couldn't find any bureaucrat or "SUL-usurpation page" on the pt.wiki

The username "Byl" not belonging to me is also in use on the following projects:

Rafy

Status:    Done

I want to usurp the following accounts in a project without an usurping bureaucrat.

Sharktopus

Status:    Done
  • I also have "Sharktapus" on Commons, and can't create "Sharktopus" there, or apply for username change there due to underlying global account. So if you could fix that too, I have some more Desert Botanical Garden photos I'm longing to upload. Sharktopus 02:46, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Done, no attachments. SUL account deleted. -- Dferg ☎ talk 15:15, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dusti

Status:    Not done

I want to usurp the following accounts as I have an SUL account that is still in migration. From what I can tell (I don't speak these languages), neither of the accounts are active or have been active within the last 3 years. It's easier for me to request this here so I have a complete SUL account, especially since the accounts are not active. Let me know if I need to do anything else. Thanks for your help in advance.

--Dusti 23:24, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested locally from local crats Mardetanha talk 01:15, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yuu eo

Status:    Done

I want to be renamed to "Yuu eo" with the following account. I have already requested at en|w to have "Yuu en" renamed to "Yuu eo". I already have a "Yuu eo" username at eo|w. After the renames pt|w and en|w are done, I intend to merge those 3 accounts in a unified login.

--Yuu eo 02:07, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is pt:User:Yuu yours? Can you post a confirmation on your talk page? This looks like a simple rename request, on the other hand. -- Dferg ☎ talk 10:16, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your reply. Look at this diff of my talk page: http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Usu%C3%A1rio_Discuss%C3%A3o:Yuu&diff=23840699&oldid=12868983 (oops, forgot to sign: Yuu eo 18:22, 6 February 2011 (UTC))[reply]
Done, renamed Yuu → Yuu eo @ ptwiki. -- Dferg ☎ talk 18:42, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! :-) Yuu eo 18:58, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deivid

Status:    Done

Hello. I would like to have the control of the account called Deivid in these wikipedias if it is possible. I have the Deivid username on SUL and most of the accounts related to it. Thanks a lot. --Deivid 17:32, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

de.wiki, fa.wiki and tr.wiki have local crats. In that wikis you need to make the request locally. Béria Lima msg 17:34, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Done: ptwiki.
Not done: dewiki, fawiki & trwiki because all those wikis have local bureaucrats. Please check the index of pages where renaming can be requested for a list of local request pages on those wikis.

Thankyou very much! --Deivid 09:19, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tectec

Status:    Not done

Renaming to Itsnotvalid (I created that SUL under enwiki), which now should have no associated accounts due to accepted name changes in enwiki. Please advice how I could create a new SUL under Itsnotvalid and assoicate with my current account in enwiki. Tectec 16:17, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Will do so, Thank you, Neer. Blasphemer 18:35, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cristian

Status:    In progress

Hi guys. I'm Rebel from ro.wp (ro.ws sysop). I have recently decided to use my real name during my time here. However, I don't intend to give up this account, as I've been active using this username for the past 6 years (not to mention it's a lady killer). Pathoschild was kind enough to suggest this is the place where I should post my request. In order for me to create a unified account named Cristian, I require your assistance in renaming my account on ca.wikibooks (Cristian2) to Cristian. I'm certain you'll notice that account has a total of 18 edits and the last one occured in March 2009, about two years ago. Unfortunately, ca.wikibooks has no bureaucrats that might deal with my problem locally. So here I am. Appreciate it. Cheers. --Rebel 04:57, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cristian at ca.wikibooks has edits and therefore usurpation might not be granted. Comments welcome, -- Dferg ☎ talk 09:31, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for reacting. As you mentioned, w:en:Wikipedia:Usurpation states that the target username should [quote] have no edits or significant log entries to qualify for usurpation (though rare exceptions are made in some circumstances). Now considering rare exceptions are made sometimes, kindly bear in mind that the user has not been active since 2009 and we are talking about 18 edits. Apart from that, the guidelines mention that usurping is [quote] probably appropriate when target username consents. Now I have no objection and actually volunteer to contact the current owner and make him aware of the situation, but I'm rather certain he doesn't check his ca.wikibooks account too often. I also agree to contacting him by e-mail on this matter in order to ask for his consent, should he have his e-mail account activated. Thanks. --Rebel 15:12, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Furries

Status:    Done

wp:en:FurriescontribslogCentralAuthusurp

I'd like to request the SUL account for User:Furries be deleted so I may use the name across all projects, the name has been ursurped at the previous home wiki, es.wiki. It's currently awaiting usurpation on it wiki and en wiki. Sactage 02:01, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Since the account on the home eswiki has been already usurped and there is no edits, I think I will do no harm if I delete the SUL. Bureaucrats of enwiki have agreed to usurp the account if SUL is deleted. So, I will resolve the chicken and egg problem by deleting the SUL. Ruslik 19:54, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
