Renombradores globales/Preguntas frecuentes
Preguntas relacionadas con las normativas
¿Es UsernameRobot un nombre de usuario válido?
No. Tales solicitudes generalmente se rechazarán porque la palabra sólo se permite para los bots en algunos wikis.
Puedo ignorar el aviso de Nombre demasiado cercano que...?
Puede ignorar la advertencia en casos especiales. Por ejemplo, cuando un nombre de usuario solicitado contiene algunos carácteres especiales, la salida del AntiSpoof podría estar equivocada, ver phabricator:T105626.
¿Cómo manejar múltiples solicitudes de cambio de nombre?
La normativa solo permite cambios de nombre si hay una buena razón para realizar uno.
- If the rename happened a long time back (say a few years), treat it as a first-time request.
- If the rename happened within 6 months, the request should generally be refused (example, example).
There will be situations where you will need to use your discretion - for example, where a user needs to be renamed again because their first rename ended up with a username block, or where it's clear that the user made a typo in their initial request. There will also be cases where the user, for example, pleads for a re-rename saying that they really don't like their current username. In that case, notify them that this will (likely) be the last time we change the username.
If a user keeps on requesting renames or there is evidence that they are abusing the system, they can be placed on the global rename blacklist (example, mailing list example).
¿Se permiten los cambios de nombre con cero ediciones?
Se les permite. No importa si usted declina o aprueba. (La declinación no ahorra tiempo).
However, usurp and cases where antispoof override is required should normally be refused.
¿Se puede cambiar un nombre de usuario inapropiado?
La política no permite este cambio de nombre. Aparte de eso, sería mucho trabajo ocultar todos los registros de cambio de nombre a nivel mundial. Tales nombres de usuario deben ser ocultados globalmente por un steward. Puede presentar una solicitud en SRG.
Users wanting to change to their real name
If a user asks for a rename to their real name, their application should explicitly confirm the risks of using their real name. If this is not the case, reject the request asking them to confirm explicitly if they want their real name to be used. Example requests: this and this
Handling rename requests for violating username policy
Check the block logs and the talk page of that user. If there is evidence that the username is not the only reason for the block (for example the user was blocked for spamming), decline such requests and ask the user to resolve the block first (example).
If in doubt, leave it to someone who's familiar with that wiki.
Preguntas técnicas
¿Puedo renombrar usuarios con más de 200 000 ediciones?
Los usuarios con ~ 200 000 ediciones deben ser renombrados solo si es absolutamente necesario. Tienes que preguntar a un sysadmin (Legoktm o Hoo).
¿Los cambios de nombre pueden ser más largo de lo habitual?
Sí, es posible que un trabajo de cambio de nombre transcurra durante horas. Si el trabajo se ejecuta por más de 6 horas, se sugiere presentar un bug en Phabricator.
Los registros de cargas en Commons no se actualizan?
Este es un problema de caché y debería resolverse después de algunas horas. Puedes purgar a mano si quieres.
¿Es posible iniciar sesión durante el proceso de cambio de nombre?
Durante el proceso de renombramiento no es posible acceder. Los usuarios que intentan acceder se les dejará un aviso.
Can I rename myself?
No. You can break your account by doing so.
Other common questions
Name too similar to existing accounts or used to username of someone who got renamed
In cases of similar usernames it's best to follow ACC's similar usernames flowchart.
In case of similar usernames, it's also useful to check if the username requested was username of someone else. This can be done by going to Global rename logs and entering the username in "Previous username:" field. If username is found to be name of someone else who got renamed then such request should be declined unless it's the same user.
Technically unacceptable accounts
To know technical restrictions on usernames, please see this guide. Also MediaWiki doesn't allow registration of number only or mixed script username but antispoof will not show warning in such cases, so it's best to check them by going to Sign up page.
Vanishing
Please see Right to vanish for such cases. It's best to leave such requests for someone who's well aware of local policies or practices and can read the language since such requests are often used to hide or obfuscate bad conduct.
Requests should generally not be denied if the requester does not providing a reason, although renamers may inquire at their discretion - such as in cases where the requester may be confused. Vanish requests processed through the queue will also further deactivate the account, preventing this process from being reversed by renamers.
Similarly, don't worry about vanish requests with just one or two edits - they should normally be approved. See this page on the mailing list for more details.
Many users confuse vanishing with a clean start and say in their vanishing request that they intend to create a new account. Such requests should be declined (example).
Promotional and shared accounts
Some project allow such names (e.g. Wikimedia Commons) some even don't allow names like "John at XYZ company" (e.g. Italian Wikipedia) so again it's best to leave them for local renamers.
