Please check Index of pages where renaming can be requested before requesting a rename here.

This page is where stewards can be requested to deal with problems relating to the unified login feature. These include:

Requests

Here you can request your account deletion and usurpation on wikis without active bureaucrats, or request the deletion of a global account if you need to be renamed or to usurp an account elsewhere. Please add new requests at the bottom!
This is a list of local pages where requests for renames can be made.
If you want to request the renaming of multiple accounts on wikis without local bureaucrats please use the format:
*{{Merging|YourName|language shortcut|project shortcut}}
See the template documentation for all of the project codes and more examples.
Please sign your requests with --~~~~, thank you!

Example:

Joy

Status:    In progress

I have gone through the list of foreign pages and requested usurpation on all instances that were listed - you can see the entire list at en:User:Joy/SUL.

The following entries either did not appear on the list of request pages, or have more than one listed bureaucrat at Special:Listusers, so I am bringing them up here because I think it would be entirely unreasonable to require me to hunt down not only each individual mediawiki instance but also each individual bureaucrat on those instances, send them duplicate messages, look out for race conditions, etc. If they failed to create a centralized page on their instance where requests can be posted so that all bureaucrats can see them, that should be a problem for them and/or for whoever oversees them - not us poor old users.

Update: I've gone ahead and sent messages to this effect to individual bureaucrats listed below. Argh. If they fail to get their act together within some reasonable amount of time (e.g. 3 weeks), please follow up (usurp my accounts, un-crat them, whatever). --Joy-temporary 11:32, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In general, this process has been utterly tedious and time-consuming and I feel I've done my share of due diligence already - it's time for someone to finally help me out and alleviate this colossal waste of my time that would *really* be better spent on actual editing of Wikipedia...

So then, this is the remainder from my list:

Thanks in advance. --Joy-temporary 10:33, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that stewards won't perform renamings or usurpations on wikis with active bureaucrats. That's tedious but that's the current policy for us. I'm doing the "0 'crat" requests for now. -- Dferg ☎ talk 12:48, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Like I said, that's fine, but you need to insist on bureaucrats maintaining their respective entries in the index of pages where renaming can be requested, otherwise they're not necessarily active bureaucrats. --Joy-temporary 15:21, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I did it.quote but I don't understand why you write «now I can't unify it because of numerous conflicting accounts on various wiki instances»: you don't mean that you technically can't, do you? Unless you have less edits than some other account (which is not your case), you should always be able to unify, leaving some local accounts unmerged. If you actually can't, then I suppose the hr sysop is blocking you, but if that's the problem (it shouldn't) I suggest you to ask a temporary desysop. --Nemo 14:05, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hosiryuhosi

Status:    In progress

Please delete my SUL account. I'm not included in "Global User List" / "GlobalRollbacker List". I want to include my username in "Global User List" and "GlobalRollbacker List". if deleted , I remake my SUL account. --Hosiryuhosi 01:27, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please access Special:MergeAccount first and see if there's any error message. Deleting global accounts is not something we should do very often. If that doesn't work, we can try the global account deletion. Regards, -- Dferg ☎ talk 13:32, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Note: I've reported a bug for this issue so PLEASE don't do anything until we can figure out what happens. -- Dferg ☎ talk 13:46, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
thanks for report. I'm not getting error message on "Special:MergeAccount". It's normal message. [25]--Hosiryuhosi 14:20, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I remember some while ago former steward Manuelt15 had the same problem. In his case he deleted his global account, recreated the global account and the lost global rights were granted by other stewards. After that, he was finally visible in the list of global accounts and (more importantly) the automatically generated list of stewards. Strange was that he had access to all the tools of the stewards et cetera, so that's not the problem. I think it's indeed a bug and maybe others have the same problem too. Trijnstel 16:55, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting the global account and recreating it might well solve the problem, yes. The reason I'm holding this is because I've reported a bug and I would be good if they can have a current example on what I described. Regards, -- Dferg ☎ talk 16:57, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Can you point me to the bug? Ruslik 15:53, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
After a quick search, I think this is the bugreport. Trijnstel 16:54, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I asked. I need to remove this request? --michelpereira 00:35, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This should be done by local bureaucrats. Please, wait until they act. Ruslik 09:02, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cobija

I want to be renamed to Cobija with the following accounts.
