Requests for renames

 * Information on how renames work is available on Wikipedia., Archives: 2013 (Previous years).

Example request:

Oldname → Newname
I'd like to change my username to "Newname" because that's the username I use on other projects. Thanks! - ~

__NOINDEX__

MD Webbureau → Firtinaam
I'd like to change my username to "Firtinaam" because MD Webbureau is my company name, but i see that isnt good. So i would like to change it. Thank you. - MD Webbureau (talk) 11:55, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I have seen your requests on other wikis declined due to the fact that you could create another account. Whether that's common practice here, I don't know, but I'm leaning a bit toward declining this request pending comment from others.--Jasper Deng (talk) 02:43, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't see a reason not to do it. Peachey88 (talk) 03:30, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I would ignore what has happened on other wikis, except that if I rename the user, it might cause SUL problems, as from m:Meta:Changing username, it appears that he might accept the advice to just create another account. If another bureaucrat disagrees, I wouldn't complain. It's just my own personal doubts. If I don't see him respond to the request on Meta soon (on whether he'll take the advice), I'll do it.--Jasper Deng (talk) 04:00, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

VolodymyrF → Володимир Ф
I'd like to change my username to "Володимир Ф" because that's the username I use on other projects. Thanks! - VolodymyrF (talk) 09:16, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
 * ✅--Jasper Deng (talk) 22:19, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. --Володимир Ф (talk) 06:21, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Knochen → Knochen
My request is in German - sorry


 * Gegenwärtiger Benutzername: w:de:Benutzer:Knochen - Homewiki, my SUL
 * Begründung, ggfs. inkl. Diff-Link zum Heimatwiki: Auf http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Knochen gibt es einen Benutzer ohne Beiträge. Diesen möchte ich gerne übernehmen um nicht zwangsweise umbenannt zu werden. Ich kann mich hier nicht mit meinem Benutzernamen=Knochen anmelden! Eine Bestätigung dieser Anfrage kann ich gerne auf meiner Homewiki-Diskussionsseite w:de:Benutzer Diskussion:Knochen vornehmen. Mit w:de:Spezial:Benutzerkonten zusammenführen funktioniert es nicht. Ich möchte nicht meinen bisherigen/jetzigen Benutzernamen ändern oder verlieren. Geht das? Danke --217.246.201.14 18:28, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
 * @Bureaucrats: The user requests to usurp the account Knochen (0 edits) for being able to include mediawikiwiki in his SUL. If necessary, he would confirm this request on w:de:Benutzer Diskussion:Knochen. Vogone    talk   13:27, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
