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)

MTVarro → Varro
I'd like to change my username to "Varro" because that's the username I use on other projects. Confirmation link is here. Thanks! - MTVarro (talk) 20:02, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
 * ❌ I can't rename because you already have an SUL account over here. Because you have only one edit under the name you requested it, I don't think a rename is strictly necessary - it would be easier for you to use your already-existing account Varro here (rather than me performing a usurpation of the already-unified account).--Jasper Deng (talk) 01:34, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I am trying to do the SUL unfication of account Varro. Mediawiki is one of seven projects where I cannot log in as Varro, because somebody else registered it, with no edits here. I already got the rename confirmed in English, French and Spanish Wiki; and it should soon follow in Italian and Dutch. Thanks. MTVarro (talk) 07:04, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
 * ✅ - sorry, I didn't see that the local account was not attached to the SUL and you didn't own it.--Jasper Deng (talk) 01:14, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

user:deepak
This account not created by me. this account is merged when i am using Special:MergeAccount. so kindly usurp the account. Deepak (talk) 02:13, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what you're asking for, because usurptions are normally performed to make way for another rename.--Jasper Deng (talk) 03:47, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
