 * ❌ 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)

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)

கலை to Kalaiarasy
Mainly, I'm a Tamil wiki contributor and I created the account with a username in Tamil. I did do a few edits in some other projects too. I had problem in using the Soxred tool 'cos of this Tamil name. Besides, I felt that it would be nice to have my username in English (that everyone can read), and thus asked for renaming in ta.wiki. My username was then changed to Kalaiarasy (that is my first name) in ta.wiki. I can now log in with both names, though I want to log in using my new username 'Kalairasy' finally. My username is not changed in all other wikis which I'm linked to. As all other accounts except ta.wiki were still in my old name, there was a confusion. The edits that I make with the new username is not being updated in the list of 'My contributions' or in the list of 'Pages created by me'. Therefore, I made a request for renaming in all wikis in Wikimedia.

You can see my request and their reply here. As they replied that I should request renaming locally in wikis with local bureaucrats, I make my request here too. Meanwhile, I wrote a note in my discussion page in ta.wiki. Can you please change my name to Kalaiarasy instead of கலை as soon as possible. Please do the renaming in mediawiki since my old name is somehow linked with this project. I'm trying to merge my account with a universal login account. Thanks in advance.--கலை 00:12, 16 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Just log in with your new account and visit this wiki and it will automatically be linked. —Emufarmers(T 20:12, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I could log in with the new account. But they say that proper renaming is necessary to avoid the problems I faced. So, kindly do the necessary. Thanks.--கலை 23:51, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

&#42;Sebi* -> -sebi-
I'd like to change my username to "-sebi-" because that's the username I try to rename all other projects to. &#42;Sebi* causes templates to break, as they replace the first character by a dot, then no longer recognize the username. - &#42;Sebi* 18:09, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
 * ❌, -sebi- is already a unified account, just log in here with that account (it does not exist locally, so there is no need to usurp it). The *sebi* account has only one edit, which is this request, so there is no need to migrate edit histories. To recap, simply log in with the -sebi- account and you'll be fine. -- Skiz zerz  02:23, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
