- Reason: Hello. I hereby formalize my request to rename my current username. I signed up for the platform a while ago but, due to negligence or ignorance of the usage policies, I chose a username that left me extremely regretful these days. Not only does it no longer reflect my online identity, it references a character from the Universal Pictures movie that I don't own. The truth is that (although I don't remember) I'm pretty sure that I created this username myself that I'm looking for right now! Recently, I've become very interested in becoming a much more active user within the Wikimedia group. In order for me to achieve this goal, in my opinion, the first step would be to change my username to something that was much more related to me. This already registered username is my real name and it is exactly my default identity that I try to use on every website I use. Jasonbournne (talk) 04:04, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

I want to continue editing without this constant worry in my head. I understand it won't hide my name from previous edits and posts I made still I prefer this new one instead, which as it seems is taken but the user doesn't seem to have any edits or significant contribution. I should have a chance to claim the username in accordance with Wikipedia's name usurpation policy. It would be very kind of you to approve this request.

(The unfortunate name of my abusive ex-bf, who I met after my initial rename to RogueShanghai) The username Shanghai isn't established at all on enwiki, and afaik only a few edits on other wikis from years ago?

- I own this account (Chuterix) and the old ChutacoackoPlayz (aka. SuperFlag) account. I am merging accounts because I am using the Chuterix account mainly for Wiktionary. The ChutacoackoPlayz account also has been used on Wiktionary to edit page 歌ってみた and I recently created a page saying the account is unused. Do not delete any edits made by the Chuterix account.
- If I have 2 accounts that would be very strange, so I just want 1 account only.
- I understand my user contributions do not transfer. (when it says i have 138 total edits on wikipedia only it means this new account will possess these edits?)
- I will put link to new account in the old account.
- And this is proof I own both accounts. Thank you. Chuterix (talk) 22:33, 8 November 2022 (UTC)

- That's exactly what will happen if we rename ChutacoackoPlayz(aka SuperFlag) → Chuterix. If you don't want that, simply stop using ChutacoackoPlayz(aka SuperFlag) account and just use Chuterix.

- Reason: I am trying to "usurp" my old account that I have lost access to for not completely clear reasons. It used to be registered to my email that I am now using for this account (DaliborP), but this doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I haven't been using it for a few years which is the reason why it took me a while to notice something was wrong. After digging through my email, I found an old note that "the email address for this account has been changed". I am sure that I haven't changed it so I suspect a hack, but after so much time, I'm not sure anymore. However, looking at user contributions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Izitpajn , there were no Wikipedia edits made after loss of access.

- DaliborP, do you still want to proceed with this usurpation? I noticed that you have not edited Wikipedia since making this request. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 02:01, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- K6ka, yes, please. I have been less active in the past years, but would still like to have my old things restored, if possible. In case there is any doubt, is there a log of old email addresses connected to the account? If yes, it should be visible there that the address used to be the same one this account is using. Also, of this is seen through, do the contributions from two accounts merge? DaliborP (talk) 10:07, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- @DaliborP: The contributions of both accounts will not merge as merging accounts is not possible. All edits under "Izitpajn" will be moved to a different name, while all edits under "DaliborP" will be moved to "Izitpajn". Is that okay with you?
- We can't view the email address attached to your account for privacy reasons, so this is not a way of verifying ownership. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 00:24, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
- @K6ka: I would rather have the Izitpajn edits remain because, after all, they are mine and that is the whole point of this (or at least a large part of it). Would that be possible? If not, I'm not even sure I want to go through with it. My work under that name - as small as it was comparing to the bigger picture - is more "meaningful" than what I did under this name. Regarding email, I'm guessing it isn't possible to "automatically restore" the old email? DaliborP (talk) 00:12, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
- @DaliborP: We can keep "Izitpajn" as is, then, if that's what you prefer.
- I'm not sure what you mean by restoring the old email. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 22:55, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
- @K6ka: What I meant is "IF the all edits under 'Izitpajn' name will be moved to a different name". From your message, I didn't get the information if this is the only way it can be done. So, before anything else, a direct question: is it possible for me to retake the "Izitpajn" name and for all its edits to remain?
- Nevermind, I understand that the email information is hidden in the database. I was curious if, after the email is changed, this can be somehow reversed. If this was possible, all the "usurpation" procedure would be unnecessary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DaliborP (talk • contribs) 11:43, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
- @DaliborP:
is it possible for me to retake the "Izitpajn" name and for all its edits to remain?
. The answer is No, at least not through usurpation. The only way to retake the username and keep all of the edits under that name intact is to reset the password using Special:PasswordReset. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 02:36, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

- Reason: I use this name on all online platforms, and this account seems to be inactive. The username I am using now has an "i" instead of a "l " in "Holes", really wanting to change that. I can give proof on many online accounts with the same username if needed, thanks Moles HoIes (talk) 17:46, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

- Not done Please request on the WP:CHU/S page. Neriah (talk) 18:56, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Farshadsadri If you want to take over username Farshad, then you have to go m:SRUC, but target has valid edits, which means usurpation is impossible in that case. —MdsShakil (talk) 06:56, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

- Neriah Would you give some kind of reason why? WhichUserAmI (talk) 08:03, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- @WhichUserAmI In principle, the request was not approved for the reason given by the bot. Now I noticed that there is a contradiction between the title of the paragraph and the template, in the template it says "BlockWid0w", which is an occupied name, and in the title it says "Block Widow", which is a free name. What is meant by your request? Neriah (talk) 18:22, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

Anh DOS → DOS
Status: Not done
- Clerk note: The requested username "DOS" is not registered locally, but is reserved for a global account. If you own the global account, please ensure you have included a confirmation link. If you do not own the global account, this may preclude renaming. Requests for usurpation of global usernames with significant attachments on other projects must be made at meta:Steward requests/Username changes. AnomieBOT⚡ 07:16, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
- I don't own the global account but I couldn't find any user with DOS username in global wiki. Anh DOS (talk) 07:20, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Anh DOS: The account did not registered in English Wikipedia. It cannot be done here. You should request in m:Steward requests/Username changes#Requests involving merges, usurps or other complications. Also, your requested username does not meet the username policy of being promotional based on your edits. Moreover, only established users are allowed to usurp an account. Your account seems not established as only 50 global edits are made. 132.234.229.25 (talk) 00:53, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
- I copy a question from meta: "The requested username may not meet the username policy in enwiki for being promotional based on the edits of the user in enwiki and the original request in enwiki". what are you saying? Neriah (talk) 14:17, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Neriah: This is what I said. The requester claims that he/she is the founder of a company called DOS Labs and editing a draft related to the product of the company. It does the meet the username policy of being a promotional username, which is a username that unambiguously represent the name of a company. Also the local usurpation guideline does not allow target account's primary wiki is not the English Wikipedia. You should comment it on meta as there is already a request in it. 132.234.228.94 (talk) 23:22, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
- I posted the question here because here there is more chance that I will get an answer from a Sysop who knows the policy from there. Neriah (talk) 04:18, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- Nihonjoe, Can you respond? Neriah (talk) 20:48, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Neriah: I'm unclear as to what question is being asked of me, but I'll try to respond to those I can see here. The enwiki username policy would prohibit the "DOS" username in this case due to the promotional aspect as mentioned above. If their name is Ahn and they work at DOS Labs (which seems likely since they indicated they founded it), they could be renamed to "Ahn at DOS Labs" or something similar. I don't know anything about the reserved username thing mentioned above. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 22:26, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
