 |reason     = (your remarks here) ~~~~
}}


Before posting here

If there is an active bureaucrat on the local wiki (type Special:ListUsers/bureaucrat), please ask them to fulfill your request using Special:RenameUser on the relevant wiki. Sometimes Project:RENAME redirects to the local request page and the Index of pages where renaming can be requested may also be used to help you locate the right page. If there is no local community, request on this page with a note to that effect.

Please list specific projects that you need rename in under your request and DO NOT just request to rename at all projects. Renaming in all wikis with bureaucrats should be handled locally

Making a request for your own account

For changing your username on one wiki:

Please include the following information in your request:

  • the old username,
  • the new username,
  • the wiki project on which you ask for the renaming,
  • a link to the local (old) user page, where you put a formal request with your local account

If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information. Please don't skip the last point, even if there's no community on the project. This helps ensure that you are requesting a rename for your own account. Please check before posting your request that the username you want is available. You can test that by going to the (new) user page and looking into the sidebar. If there is a link to user contributions, the account already exists.

For changing your username on several wikis:

If you want to have changed your username on several wikis at the same time, please put a list of these wikis on one of your user pages and make sure that there is a link back to this page from all of the other user pages. Alternatively you can post a short request separately with all the user accounts to be renamed. Please give here only the link to the user page with your list and replace the "@ project" in the headline by "on several projects" or the like.

Making a request for an account that is not yours

If you want to have an account renamed because it's name is harrassing or insulting, or if it impersonates you or someone else, please include the following information in your request:

  • the account's name, including a translation into English, (if it's harrassing or insulting),
  • the wiki project on which you ask for the renaming,
  • the impersonated account (if the account is impersonating), this can be cross wiki.

If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information.


Requests for renaming your own account

Please add new requests at the end of the page. Sections should be titled your username@project name or your username@multiple projects please.

Joshua P. Schreder@all projects

Status:    Not done
Not done. Sorry, but all these projects have local bureaucrats. Please use the index of pages where renaming can be requested to find out where to request it locally. As for enwiki, you can e-mail wikien-bureaucrats(_AT_)lists.wikimedia.org. Best, PeterSymonds 09:12, 5 March 2011
This was the message I got from the bureaucrat at en.wiki: Dear Joshua P. Schroeder, I've just found out the other day that a new "feature" has been rolled out that prevents local bureaucrats from renaming users with over 25,000 edits. So I think any rename of your account would need to be done by a Steward at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/SR/UC.(UTC) ... Sincerely, -xeno
I can confirm I wrote the above, though I have added an ellipsis in the appropriate location. There is a new limitation preventing local bureaucrats from performing renames over 25,000 edits; I don't know if Stewards can bypass. Local policy implications are still being considered, see en:WP:BN#Rename edit count limitation: Is this new? –xeno 21:07, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

S96s097@all projects

Status:    In progress

Note Note: please follow the instructions here. We need a list of those project you want your account renamed. Requests for @all projects or the like without a complete list of projects where renaming is being requested will be declined. Thanks for your understanding. --dferg ☎ talk 15:36, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK. I want to chang my username on ko.wikisource, ko.wikinews, it.wikipedia, incubator.wikimedia, fr.wikipedia, ru.wikipedia, simple.wikipedia. Thanks. --13:44, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
Not done for it.wikipedia, incubator.wikimedia, fr.wikipedia, ru.wikipedia, simple.wikipedia as those projects have active local bureaucrats. And I need a confirming edit for the two ko.wiki projects since the account there already exists and it is suled. -Barras 11:35, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Gennaro.cappelluti@wikimedia.org

Status:    In progress
You should: 1. Log in to make the request; and 2. define what wiki you want to have your username changed. Béria Lima msg 12:52, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oldname@xxproject

Status:    In progress
Please, specify in what wiki you want to have your username changed. -- Màñü飆¹5 talk es 05:30, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Flávio Paiva F1@All projects

Status:    In progress

Fl Flávio, precisas de dizer se queres renomear a conta em todos os projectos (como diz o título da secção) ou somente na pt.wiki (como fazes supor pelo link). Béria Lima msg 00:09, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quero renomear em todos os projetos. --Flávio Paiva F1 00:16, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Então precisas listar aqui todas as wikis em que queres renomear a tua conta. Tenha em atenção que os stewards so podem te renomear em wikis que não tem burocratas, nas que tem, tens que fazer o pedido localmente. Béria Lima msg 00:19, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Henriquepaludetto@ptwiki

Status:    In progress
Warning: A username cannot begin with a lower-case letter: hp2010 → Hp2010
The difflink you provided isn't valid, and I can't seem to find it anywhere. Could you correct that first? Many thanks, PeterSymonds 02:40, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The request was made with the user's unified account.[5] However, the Hp2010 username seems to be already reserved for an SUL-enabled enwiki account with three edits. Jafeluv 08:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
All three edits are deleted. Ruslik 13:53, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fredxavier@all wikis

Status:    In progress
username already exists on some wikis. can't globally rename. choose a different name. מתניה 11:17, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

SivaneshR@tawiki

Status:    Done
I see you've asked all of them, but not all of them have replied. Please wait for a response from all local bureaucrats before placing the request here. If it is true that none of them know the procedures (which would certainly be odd), please consider drafting a help page in Tamil. Best, PeterSymonds 20:14, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Its true that none of them know how to rename so please process my request favourably. The fact that they don't know is evident from the other discussions in their talk pages so please understand this issue.SivaneshR 20:25, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unless you could get all four bureaucrats to come here and confirm they don't know how to rename users, this will not be done per policy. PeterSymonds 15:15, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Now done per local bureaucrat request at SRSUL. PeterSymonds 21:33, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
