Requests
SMAUG@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: SMAUG (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: SMAUG (vanha) (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: –
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: The user in question has two global accounts (ElmA and SMAUG). SMAUG is the account name that he wants to use. However, nearly all of his edits are now under different name. We would like SMAUG to be renamed so that the main global account can be renamed to SMAUG afterwards (I’ll make different request for that). Please wait for SMAUG to confirm that this is what he wants to be done. –Ejs-80 12:57, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
I confirm. --SMAUG (talk) 15:59, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
- Holding this until 15 Sept when I will be able (by policy) to manually fix the individual project conflicts. Ajraddatz (talk) 16:05, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
- OK, although I'm not sure if the wait is needed here, since there are no individual project conflicts that need to be fixed when you rename "SMAUG" to "SMAUG (vanha)". And after that there is no SUL account matching the name "SMAUG" (correct me if I'm wrong), so the ElmA → SMAUG rename will be possible. I know that by the end of this process there will be 18 commonswiki edits and 2 metawiki edits which will belong to the "SMAUG (vanha)", but that's not a problem by this user. –Ejs-80 17:34, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
- As the user wants it as well, I have done this. --MF-W 14:47, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. –Ejs-80 15:09, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

Ccifjtoyo@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Ccifjtoyo (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: CcifjTokyo (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: On fr.wp
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: Since I can't rename global accounts yet, I'm asking on behalf of Ccifjtoyo who asked for a renaming on fr.wp (typo on first login). Esprit Fugace (talk) 10:15, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
- They request a rename from CcifjToyo although Ccifjtoyo is his current username. Is the change to a camel-case name intended? Additionally, they could have registered a new name as their first edit was the rename request. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 08:58, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- I'm pretty confident the camel-case is intended, but I'll ask just to make sure (wouldn't want another request in two days...). They could have register a new name, but now they have 4 edits in main, and I think it would bother them to see it misspelled in the history of the article. Esprit Fugace (talk) 09:36, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- @DerHexer : As I thought, CamelCase intended. Best Regards, Esprit Fugace (talk) 09:56, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Unger@svwikivoyage
- Wiki: sv.wikivoyage.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Unger (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: RolandUnger (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: [2]
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: My SUL account is RolandUnger. My renaming request to a wiki bureaucrat at sv.wikivoyage was never realised. My old account is an admin account. I am tho only one at this wiki doing this job. RolandUnger (talk) 14:57, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- Not done for now. Soon we will gave a global account merge tool which will be suitable for this task. —DerHexer (Talk) 14:59, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Ellande@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Ellande (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: Ellande (usurped) (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: On fr.wp
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: That one is a bit tricky. The user name has been globally registered upon first login in April 2013, by user:Ellande on es.wp (now es:User:Ellande (usurpado), no contribution). In June this year, the local account has been usurped by fr:User:Alasjourn (now fr:User:Ellande), who wanted a renaming and asked for it on fr.wp, fr.wikiversity and es.wp. That renaming has been performed locally on es.wp by Jmvkrecords, but now Ellande has all three existing local accounts (See there), but can't unify his accounts due to the pre-existing global account. Could you please either delete the global account or rename it out of his way ? Thanks, Esprit Fugace (talk) 15:24, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- I have deleted the global account "Ellande" for him to use MergeAccount on his home wiki. — TBloemink talk 15:28, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
Noyeux44@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Noyeux44 (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: Noyeux (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: On fr.wp
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: Another "not too obvious" one. Noyeux logged in first on fr.wp in January 2010, creating both local and global account. He then forgot his password (the account had no contributions). In September 2011, he created another account, Noyeux44, both local and global, and became active on several wikis, as can be seen here. He now wish to get his first choice of name back : is it possible to delete the account "Noyeux", and then to rename "Noyeux44" to "Noyeux" ? As I have renamed "Noyeux" as "Noyeux_old" on fr.wp, there is no longer any local account attached to the global account. Regards, Esprit Fugace (talk) 15:34, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, done. --MF-W 15:39, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
Omegazell6@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Omegazell6 (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: Loann (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: On fr.wp
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: Another deletion request. The account "Loann", created on fr.wp in 2009 for self-promotion of a young teen, has two deleted contributions, but no contributions on current articles. I renamed him out of the way so that Omegazell6 could have the name, but the global account stands in the way. Could you delete the global account (no local account anymore) and then rename Omegazell6 as "Loann" ? Thanks, Esprit Fugace (talk) 16:49, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- Done, thanks. Ajraddatz (talk) 17:15, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
Ixfd64@jawiki
- Wiki: ja.wikipedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Ixfd64 (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: Ixfd64 (usurped) (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: [4]
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: I'm in the process of finalizing my SUL migration. However, this has been impossible because a vandal on the Japanese Wikipedia signed up using my username and got blocked. If a steward could let me take back that username, it would be greatly appreciated. I am posting the request here because:
- The Japanese Wikipedia no longer processes local renaming requests as of last year.
- I can prove I'm the one making the request as I can log in here.
Thanks! Ixfd64 (talk) 17:27, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- Account renamed. You should be free to create the account for your SUL now. Ajraddatz (talk) 17:29, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- Dang, that was quick. Thanks so much! --Ixfd64 (talk) 17:33, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
Collaborateur Luc Belot@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Collaborateur Luc Belot (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: CLB (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: On fr.wp
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: I'm asking the renaming as a bureaucrat of fr.wp, on behalf of Collaborateur Luc Belot. He asked for a renaming on fr.wp for privacy reasons, but has a global account. Thanks for your attention, Esprit Fugace (talk) 17:27, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
- There are some unattached accounts (Sulutil:CLB). Please ask them to choose another name--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 17:38, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
- Only two of them have ever contributed, on en.wikivoyage.org and on nl.wp. Is it really necessary ? If so, I'll transmit your request for more suitable login. Regards, Esprit Fugace (talk) 17:41, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
- All of those accounts should be usurped then only we can globally rename. As of now you have to request individual project crats for usurpations, so it is better to choose another name--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 17:46, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
- (ec) It's technically impossible to rename to an already taken account. Anyway, we could move these local accounts to another name so that Collaborateur Luc Belot can take CLB. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 17:47, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Collaborateur Luc Belot: please address the concerns above. Alternatively, we can close this as a stale request. — billinghurst sDrewth 14:19, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- He didn't come for the last month : I think you can close it on your side, we'll keep it on fr.wp until (if) he come back. Esprit Fugace (talk) 15:49, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

- I am confirm that 분당선M is my account please continue the rename process,--DangSunM (talk) 12:21, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- We can't merge accounts. Do you want DangSunM to be renamed to something else first? --MF-W 12:45, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- At least not yet. Hopefully, we can merge accounts in a few weeks. Otherwise, what MF said. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 13:40, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- Afaik, we will be able to attach local accounts to a global account then, but still not merge two (global) accounts in the way that is possible with mw:Extension:UserMerge. --MF-W 14:27, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- If nececcery, you can rename DangSunM to someting else. Or if it will being easier if i request few weeks after, I may need to requst again later I guess.--DangSunM (talk) 23:31, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- Well, you see... either you wait or get DangSunM renamed to something else now. From the viewpoint of stewards, it doesn't matter at all; the work needed is just some clicks anyway. --MF-W 15:05, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
- No, this tool will merge global accounts. After SUL finalisation, all accounts will be global ones anyway. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 11:03, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
- @분당선M: please confirm what you would like to happen, or we can close this as "withdrawn" — billinghurst sDrewth 06:06, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry to answer lately. I recently saw that my kowiki account was renamed. So i have to do the rename so please go ahead to rename as many wiki as you can. I thñk you can still use old way. Thanks.-- DangSunM (talk) 11:21, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

Jborme@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Jborme (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: Cæruleum (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Confirmation difflink: confirmation on enwiki, confirmation on frwiki. (the largest two)
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: In order to finalize SUL, and for privacy reasons. I noticed several users were instructed to go to Special:MergeAccount, but I am not sure if I should merge/unify accounts first, and if so which account (old, new, both?) should be unified and in which order. Thanks for any advice on this matter. Jérôme (talk) 19:29, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, indeed please visit Special:Mergeaccount first. Currently you have no global account; you can create one there, then once you have it, renaming you on all projects is much easier. --MF-W 19:32, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- Should I visit Special:Mergeaccount for both accounts? I have local accounts at many wikis, with both names (never both names on the same wiki). Jérôme (talk) 19:38, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- So you own all of these accounts: [5] & [6]? --MF-W 19:42, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, I was correcting interwikis links at a time. I just spent one hour making sure they are all associated to the same e-mail address and all use the same password (I think this is a criterion to unify). Jérôme (talk) 19:46, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- I see. It is indeed best if password & e-mail are the same (though unifying is also possible if only one of them matches).
- Your case is a bit complicated because you already have 30 accounts at the desired username, but the 11 accounts at the other username have made much more edits. And unfortunately there isn't a tool to merge accounts with different names yet (even though that is planned for an unknown time in the future). I'd recommend you to do the following:
- Unify Cæruleum. Whether you unify Jborme is a matter of choice, since that account is going to be gone anyway in the end. However if you unify it too, you have the advantage that it is immediately clear that you own all of the accounts who are still named Jborme.
- Request local renames of the Jborme accounts to Cæruleum on the 11 wikis where you edited with Jborme. You have to make 11 separate requests, but you can wait with some or all until 15 September, for when it is announced that bureaucrats will lose the right to rename, and then a steward can fulfill all the renames. [You can however be sure that a request to the bureaucrats on some wikis will be fulfilled very quickly, far before 15 September. E.g. on enwiki and meta, and probably frwiki as well]. --MF-W 20:04, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, I was correcting interwikis links at a time. I just spent one hour making sure they are all associated to the same e-mail address and all use the same password (I think this is a criterion to unify). Jérôme (talk) 19:46, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

The user is handling this, as seen by the creating of the global account Cæruleum & rename requests on local wikis. --MF-W 16:09, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

- Are you ru:User:Runar? Please visit ru:Special:Mergeaccount first. --MF-W 17:17, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- (ec) Not done. There are more users with “Runar” as their username and you can only usurp a complete account (and probably only if it has no edits at all, that's currently under discussion). This is a request page for global renames for which the requested account must be empty. Please choose a fresh username. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 17:19, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

- Confirmation difflink: ---not available---
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: This is an attempt to unify my account by usurping the remaining unattached account for Waldhorn found at de.wikipedia. Per the notice at de:Wikipedia:USURP, de.wikipedia usurpation requests are now handled here at Steward Requests. My home account at en.wikipedia has the best claim with approximately 950 edits vs de.wikipedia with 14 edits. See Special:CentralAuth/Waldhorn. A confirmation link is not available as I do not own the de.wikipedia account. —Waldhorn (talk) 19:35, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry to make you wait, but I'll leave this for SUL finalisation. The last edits by that account were within the last year, so I'd like to give the user a chance to select a new name as he will have with finalisation. If you'd like to leave him a message requesting him to change the name of his account, I can act on the feedback that he gives. Thanks, Ajraddatz (talk) 21:10, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
- Would the de.wiki user need to take any action beyond consenting on his talk page to a rename ? —Waldhorn (talk) 00:06, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
- No. Just ping me or put another request here if he replies. If he is OK with a name change (and you can explain to him that his name will be changed anyway, but please do so nicely!), then I can do it so long as he provides a new username. Ajraddatz (talk) 00:09, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

Julyo@eswiki

- Confirmation difflink: ---not available---
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: This is an attempt to unify my account by usurping the remaining unattached account for Julyo found at es.wikipedia. The notice at es:WP:USURP does not make clear whether es.wikipedia bureaucrats handle all SUL usurpation requests or just usurpations for people who already have unified global accounts; this particular account has no contributions and empty User and User Talk pages, despite being registered before 2006 (as my own account was): es:Especial:Contribuciones/Julyo. My home account, at en.wikipedia, has 146 edits, and counting this usurpation request, my home and attached accounts together have 169 edits, as seen at Special:CentralAuth/Julyo. I have verified that there is no global account with the target username and that there is no local account with that username: SUL Info Tool. Julyo (talk) 05:08, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
- Just to understand better: You want us to rename Julyo@eswiki to JulyoES@eswiki but to keep Julyo@global where it is, right? Currently, we don't do local userpations but only renames of global accounts. You still can ask crats on eswiki whether they usurp this local account. Otherwise, you can wait for SUL finalisation where this account will be automatically, in case of need forcibly renamed or ask them whether they want to choose a new name earlier. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 08:49, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
- I have usurped the "Julyo" account on eswiki, releasing it for SUL, as an eswiki bureaucrat. Is that all you required? Savhñ 16:54, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

- Did AntiSpoof prevent creations of new accounts because "Fuzzydice" exists? Otherwise, this was a useless rename because Fuzzydice has one edit from 2006 only. --MF-W 14:41, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
- Not that I know of, as the global rename got all the attached accounts. Between this issue, the relation to FuzzyBot and the repeat requests by the user for a rename I still think that this was the best solution, though you are free to disagree. Ajraddatz (talk) 16:03, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

I've engaged a friend to became a new member of Wikimedia movement and he has a local account in :ca. Even if he tried to make it global (and I helped him), We found out that his name, (at least in Commons is not in use) is taken de.wictionary and maybe other projects. He has posted This in his local discussion page to assure he wants to make the rename. Is it possible?
- I advise your friend to choose a different name and request a global rename. Ruslik (talk) 17:12, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- This is ok? I believe he only has activated the :ca account, so this should be rename :ca's Satsuma into "TaronjaSatsuma" and then make the account global.--Coentor (talk) 18:04, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Coentor: Could you please let your friend confirm he wants the name "TaronjaSatsuma"? After that happened, we could proceed with this request. Vogone (talk) 19:51, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- If I understand it correctly, Coentor/Ruslik, he'd simply like to have his account renamed to "TaronjaSatsuma" (No SUL, no local accounts, so should be okay). We can either rename globally, or a ca.wikipedia 'crat could do so locally. Savhñ 19:52, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- This is ok? I believe he only has activated the :ca account, so this should be rename :ca's Satsuma into "TaronjaSatsuma" and then make the account global.--Coentor (talk) 18:04, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
I Will. Basically, Mr. Satsuma/TaronjaSatsuma wants a global account with his nick, but he registered locally. If "Satsuma" is taken in other wikis, then he wants to change his name in order to get a global one.--Coentor (talk) 20:00, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- Well, usurping would be an option, though globally renaming is currently an easier process. However, with SUL finalisation approaching, he will - as owner of the SUL account - become the unique owner of the nick Satsuma. It depends on whether he wishes to wait a while, go through the usurpation process or be renamed globally. Savhñ 20:05, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- New diff for the new username. As a local 'crat it is fine to me to do it locally or globally, but I think it is better to complete this request here. --Vriullop (talk) 09:29, 14 September 2014 (UTC)

- Reason: I am using the username NickK in most projects and I want to rename my account in Italian Wikipedia in order to unify all my accounts under the name NickK. I have made a local renaming request but unfortunately it was turned down by a local bureaucrat for unknown reasons. Please note the following:
- I do not have a global account Nick_UA and I do not want to create it as I want to rename all my accounts under this name to NickK
- I do not have a global account NickK but I can create it (I have sysop rights and over 80,000 edits in ukwiki), although I do not want to do it until this rename is done (as in this case I will immediately get an account NickK in Italian Wikipedia)
- This is not an usurpation request: I simply could not create an account NickK in Italian Wikipedia due to the presence of it:Utente:Nickk
- This is not a global renaming request: although I do have other accounts named Nick_UA in other wikis, all of them require usurpation, and I am currently waiting for reaction from their German owner
Thanks! — NickK (talk) 06:36, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- Done, renamed locally to NickK. You should create a global account though, because otherwise your accounts could be automatically renamed with SUL finalisation. Access

- Reason: Davide is inactive since 2012, is it possible usurp the name? As an alternative (but I really prefer the first one) maybe Ðavide could be ok --Martellodifiume (talk) 23:08, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Unfortunately no, we cannot usurp an account with over 7000 edits. I don't consider Ðavide to be appropiate either, considering the simmilarity to Davide and the confusion that might arise due to the special character used. Savhñ 23:35, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- This was exactly the reason for which I chose Ðavide; Ð is not a special character in a lot of country and I can not see problems of misunderstanding if the other user is inactive.. Anyway does exist limits over which a name can not be usurped? I am finishing the alternative solutions! --Martellodifiume (talk) 00:13, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- Savh, because of language differences (German umlauts, Chinese symbols, etc.) and the inherently low number of short usernames, we've generally entertained these kinds of variants so long as the user agrees not to impersonate the other user. What's your opinion? MBisanz talk 01:58, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- Agree with the special symbols - which can be language dependant indeed - but the Ð is not used at all in Italian, and might therefore lead to confusion on it.wiki. I'd prefer to have an it.wiki 'crat giving his view. Savhñ 06:24, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- I agree but the same page you linked says that is used in Venetian (that is my native language in addition to Italian), this is the reason I thought about it (I'm Ðavide in FB too). Let me know! :) --Martellodifiume (talk) 11:56, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

- Confirmation difflink: On fr.wp
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: I can't do it myself : the account Pandaroux was created on fr.wp in 2010, never contributed, got locally renamed in June 2014 to Pandaroux old (for usurpation), leaving the SUL and 2 locals accounts (on en.wp and fr.wikt, automatically created). The old account apparently logged in again two months ago, creating the global account "Pandaroux old". There is now a local "Pandaroux" on fr.wp, created in June this year, but she can't get a global account. Ideally the global acount "Pandaroux" shoud be renamed to "Pandaroux old", I suppose, but it can't be done, and the merge tool isn't available yet. Since the accounts have not edited, would it be possible to delete the global account, so that fr.Pandaroux can recreate the global account, linked to her account ? Both local accounts on en.wp and fr.wikt should be renamed to "Pandaroux old" (they should have the same password anyway), but I don't know if that's possible.

- Reason: This is a follow-up to my previous request which can be seen at Steward_requests/Username_changes/2014-09#Jborme@global. As suggested I got the rename on several wikis (frwikipedia, enwikipedia, meta, commons, frwiktionary), unified both accounts, and let the wikis with more minor contributions to be done on meta (on some of them the average delay that could be guessed from the waiting list was longer than waiting for 2014-09-15 anyway).

- You will need to finish the migration of the renaming accounts. Matanya (talk) 08:51, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- What I was told is that local bureaucrats would lose this ability on 2014-09-15, so meta would handle the remaining after the deadline (see the answer I got at my previous request as linked above). Also a project on which I created an account does not have bureaucrats (wikisource, account created before there was localisations).Cæruleum (talk) 09:10, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- You have duplicate accounts for meta for example, you will need to wait until mergeuser is deployed for us to be able to solve such conflicts. Matanya (talk) 15:40, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Done on eswiki, oldWS, fr.b, fr.s, mw.org. On ptwiki I renamed the existing attached Cæruleum account away, since it had 0 edits, and renamed Jborme to it. On qualitywiki I got an error message, surely because the wiki is closed. Apart from that, Jborme remains only on Meta now, where Cæruleum has edits as well. Do you want the existing Cæruleum (with 3 edits) to be renamed away in favour of the other account? --MF-W 15:47, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Seems like not. I marked this as done so it can be archived. --MF-W 19:56, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

- Confirmation difflink: [37]
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: My username Aschmidt is being employed by a different user on English Wikibooks and on Russian Wikipedia, blocking a merge of those two accounts. This is why I would like to have my account renamed globally on all Wikimedia wikis before SUL finalisation takes place. Thanks in advance.--Aschmidt (talk) 22:24, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
- Note. Target SUL already exists. Stewards need to delete target SUL before.--Anatoliy (talk) 22:32, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
- I don't see that... @Aschmidt: when finalization occurs you will have complete control over your current name. Are you sure you still want to change it? The enwikibooks and ruwiki accounts will be forced to rename. Ajraddatz (talk) 22:43, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
- Is that really so? The last thing I have learned about the process of renaming is that suffices will be added to usernames like mine. However, if you are right, Ajraddatz, I would indeed prefer not to rename my account and withdraw my request. Thanks for raising this point, anyway.--Aschmidt (talk) 23:37, 28 September 2014 (UTC)

- Reason: I have an account with unified login active. Except it isn't linked on Commons for some reason. I have requested a password reset from Commons but the email never arrived (tried twice, checked spam folder). Interestingly I could only request a password reset by entering my email address, entering my username didn't work. Can you unify the accounts? --Korakys (talk) 03:24, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- Sometimes accounts are randomly separated from SULs and all information from them is removed (email, password, etc.). I've renamed the local account so you should be able to add it to your global one. Ajraddatz (talk) 03:50, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- Ok, weird. I think I've got a grip on it now, thank you. I don't mind if you delete the broken account if you can. --Korakys (talk) 09:23, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

- I thought that ‘just in case’ would be sufficient, but whatever. --Romanophile (talk) 19:16, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- Usually there is no point in renaming accounts with 0 edits (except taking the lazy stewards' time). You simply get accounts under your username thanks to the SUL auto-creation on visiting. --MF-W 20:10, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
