Example request:

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

El Muñeco Shakes It Up, Baby -> Diego Grez
Hi. The privacy concern I had is over, after some kind of "agreement" with the person who was stalking. Could you please rename me back to "Diego Grez"? I'm sorry if this rename does disturb you once more =D Cheers, Diego Grez ¡hablemos! 03:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

hannob -> hannob (usurped)
I own hannob on en/de wikipedia and commons, I'd like to have a unified username on all wikimedia projects. There exists a user hannob I don't own, it has zero edits, please move it. --77.12.46.74 18:48, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Медиа -> Edward_Chernenko
That's my username on my home wiki. Thank you. Медиа 21:08, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅ (Hopefully there won't be any database trouble this time. :)) —Emufarmers(T 03:38, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Cwenger -> CWenger
I would like to change the capitalization of my username. –Cwenger 18:00, 25 December 2010 (UTC)


 * ❌ Cwenger doesn't have any edits here except this one, and CWenger was already autocreated here for your SUL account. —Emufarmers(T 18:11, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Tomayres -> Mato
Change has taken place on my home wiki (enwiki). Would like to secure SUL. Thanks. - Tomayres 01:07, 8 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Please can you provide a link to a diff of your user page on the English Wikipedia that confirms this is a legitimate request? RobertL 23:45, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

tkarcher -> tkarcher (usurped)
I own de:Benutzer:Tkarcher on de.wikipedia.org, and I'm in the process of generating an unified user account.  There exists a User:Tkarcher I don't own (or at least can't remember setting it up), which has zero edits. Could you please move it to "TKarcher (usurped)"? Thanks! --192.35.17.17 16:30, 21 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Please can you create a temporary account here that can be moved to "Tkarcher" once it is moved for usurpation? RobertL 23:49, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure why this is needed, since my existing account should be valid in all projects once the unification is finished, but ok: I just set up "Tkarcher (temp)". Proof of ownership. --Tkarcher (temp) 13:01, 22 January 2011 (UTC)


 * ✅ Creating an temporary account here ensures that there is only an extremely small period of time where a malicious user could register and use the account "Tkarcher" before you can. RobertL 13:15, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks - both for the explanation and for the renaming. --Tkarcher 21:05, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Tectec -> Itsnotvalid
The CentralAuth system screwed me up, when I was attempting to change my usernames and then created a bunch of "auto-created" accounts for me. Please help me change the name. (Another mistake is by creating the target account, which I am the owner, if anyone could help me to move or unmerge or do whatever that could help me to move that SUL, it would be a great help. )Thanks! - Tectec 14:50, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

The spesh man -> Spesh531
I'd like to change my username to "Spesh531" because that's the username I use on other projects like en:Wikipedia. Thanks! - 69.117.77.219 02:09, 28 February 2011 (UTC) I did post this. :) -The spesh man 02:11, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
