- Reason: (Change old name to the my reel name) --PediAki (talk) 04:58, 1 January 2018
- @PediAki: I don't think we can accept this request, because you blocked in en.wiki because you made damage and disruption there, so please ask sysops to unblock you, then come back again --Alaa :)..! 20:22, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
Astral Destroyer

- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: Need to claim that name to unify all my forum handles, my current username is inappropriate and does not help in recognizing any edits I made.
Also the pre-existing User has no edits only a global account. --Astral Destroyer (talk) 19:25, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

- Old Username: Cheva (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: Czeva (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: correct pronunciation - not to be continually confused with that of the sets of building blocks of the same name, and to refer to and promote Czech wiki community. [1] User asked me for renaming, but because of usurpation I forward it to the stewards. --JAn Dudík (talk) 14:05, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
- Account is eligible for usurpation (0 recorded edits)--left a message at ro.wikipedia.org --Atcovi (Talk - Contribs) 14:08, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks @JAn Dudík:
can you ask the user to sign here (because the user has more than 20000 edits) so I would be sure that the user sure 100% from this request? Also to note the user that it'll be in capital letter (Czeva) not (czeva) --Alaa :)..! 12:53, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

- Warning: A username cannot begin with a lower-case letter: χ → Χ
- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req

Comment request moved from simple rename requests. Left a message on Death Eater's talk page on en.wikipedia as all requirements have been met here. --Atcovi (Talk - Contribs) 17:02, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Atcovi: I don't know so much about criteria, so thanks moving my request here. Please look at this facebook post (in Hindi), someone troll me with my real name. So for privacy matters, I don't want to continue with my real username.--Prateekmalviya20 (talk) 11:30, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

Special request
Status: Not done

- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: I don't know if it is possible to respond positively to my request, but this seems to be the most appropriate procedure. I'm looking for access to the pseudo Lebot, for a future bot. This username is blocked in the English community for 10 years because the person behind this username was not a bot. Thank you in advance.

Hedda Gabler (eski)
Status: Done
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)

- New Username: Hedda Gabler (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: Hedda Gabler is my account but my two accounts are separated from each other (I do not know why). I want to use Hedda Gabler username.
--Hedda Gabler (eski) (talk) 16:14, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Hedda Gabler (eski): we can't merge accounts. We can change Hedda Gabler to Hedda Gabler (usurped) then change Hedda Gabler (eski) to Hedda Gabler. So if you need us to do that sign by Hedda Gabler account under your request --Alaa :)..! 19:06, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- Hi @علاء:,
- I don't remember my "Hedda Gabler" account password :/ But its mine account. --Hedda Gabler (eski) (talk) 21:08, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Hedda Gabler (eski): I don't think we can preform this request unless you sign by you other account! --Alaa :)..! 10:02, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
- @علاء:,
- I will pass a brief summary:
- I was a member of Wikipedia under the name of "Cemallamec".
- Then I changed my username to "Hedda Gabler" and used it as SUL in all the wikis.
- I forgot my password, then I created a new account.
- Then I confiscated "Hedda Gabler" username and admins of tr.wiki made "Hedda Gabler" to "Hedda Gabler (eski)"
- I continued to contribute with "Hedda Gabler" username for years
- I did not contribute Wikipedia for years so I did not log in (and I forgot my password)
- When I turn back, I noticed that my all accounts were seperated each other under these username: "Cemallamec", "Hedda Gabler", "Hedda Gabler (eski)" and "Hedda Gabler ~ trwiki" (and +1)
- I can now enter only "Cemallamec" and "Hedda Gabler (eski)" accounts.
- I only want my "Hedda Gabler" username because it's mine. You can ask Turkish Wikipedia user/admins etc. or search.
- Thanks and "may the force be with you" if u solve this problem. --Hedda Gabler (eski) (talk) 17:45, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Ajraddatz: what is your opinion here? --Alaa :)..! 19:51, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- The trwiki account had a different password than the other accounts. @Hedda Gabler (eski): can you direct a trwiki admin who knew you here? We could also ask on Phabricator if they can match the email address used on both the ~trwiki account and the main Hedda Gabler account. – Ajraddatz (talk) 00:22, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
Comment As a sysop on trwiki, I guarantee that the two accounts of concern (Hedda Gabler (eski) & Hedda Gabler) are used by the same person. This usurpation request in particular, approved by local bureaucrats, support this view as well. --Superyetkin (talk) 16:25, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Superyetkin:I totally agree! --e.c. 18:20, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: I'm sikander on Twitter and Facebook and would love to carry that over to Wikimedia. For some reason I was unable to register sikander in 2009 and went with Siqbal instead. A change would be fantastic. Thank you!
- @Siqbal:--sorry, the account, Sikander, contains valid edits on the fr.wikipedia, and thus is not eligible for usurpation. Please choose another username. --Atcovi (Talk - Contribs) 02:29, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Atcovi:--Yes, I saw that account, but it has had no activity for more than 10 years. Last edit by that account was 2 July 2007. Does that make a difference? Siqbal (talk) 14:07, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Atcovi: what is the important edits here :/ I saw edits between (-22 to +41) just! --Alaa :)..! 14:08, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Atcovi: Thanks. I saw all of them but Is it so important to prevent active user (+7000 edits) from take this name? Also the user inactive since more than 10 years! I prefer to accept this request --Alaa :)..! 17:29, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
- According to the Requests_for_comment/Usurpation_policy: "User accounts may be usurped if it matches one of following conditions:
- Does not have any edits except deleted
- Is a vandalism-only account where all the edits were straight reverted and can thus be deleted.
- Has edits to userspace only that can be deleted."
But alas, I'm not a global renamer--you are. It is your (or another gr)'s decision at the end of the day. Salam. --Atcovi (Talk - Contribs) 18:06, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

- @Ahecht: why you put the old name as "Ahect~enwiki"? --Alaa :)..! 23:48, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Alaa: I am trying to create an alternate account under "Ahect" since it is a common misspelling of my username (per en:Wikipedia:Sock_puppetry#Legitimate_uses), but since that name was not available I temporarily created it at "Ahect~enwiki" so that it could be moved to "Ahect" once that account is usurped.

- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: For many years I used my username "Scoid" in several wikipedias, wikidata and commons. Then I had trouble to login into those projects, changing between them and used a new username "Scoid_d". It might have been a cookie issue. Both usernames "Scoid" and "Scoid_d" I'd like to merge to one for my convenience.

Upon starting her work with us, she found that someone, apparetly by mistake, while trying to create an article about her, created instead an username, who then posted information about her first in the userpage, then in a proper article in main space. She would like to reclaim her identity back. Is that possible?--- Darwin Ahoy! 19:32, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
