- Reason: Hello this is second request. I am trying a different one because I didn't think it was available at first.
Fatima talk 22:40, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Note:
- The target username has made edits to Wikipedia. Due to licensing concerns, this may be a barrier to usurpation.
- No SUL exists for the target username, but there are multiple deattached accounts with the same name. No SUL exists for the requesting user. The target account's edits are minor, but the target account recently underwent an usurpation. dmz 23:36, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- The notification currently on the user's talk page is from a previous usurpation, no idea why it's still there. The user would appear to have put it on herself. I've changed notified back to no, but if Anomiebot changes it again, the reviewing 'crat should take note that no notice was left there. I'm going to leave a notice on the requesting user's talkpage now. dmz 01:39, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- Not done The reason your previous request was declined was because it is one in a long string of requests to usurp this and other blocked user names that appear to originate from the original blockee. Please request unblocking from your main account or contact WP:BASC. –xenotalk 18:36, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Tyranny Sue → TyrS
Status: Not done

- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user, rename user
- Datestamp: 05:40, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Reason: This is the name I tried to change to myself before I found out that username changes had to be done by bureaucrats, etc. It didn't work. Sorry, I just didn't know then that it had to go through this process.
TyrS 05:40, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Note:
- The target username has made edits to Wikipedia. Due to licensing concerns, this may be a barrier to usurpation.
- The target username has Wikipedia user logs entries. Due to licensing concerns, this may be a barrier to usurpation.
- Target user has 1677 undeleted edits and 15 deleted edits, for a total of 1692 edits. No SUL account exists for the target user (unattached accounts may exist). Requesting user has 562 undeleted edits and 2 deleted edits, for a total of 564 edits. An SUL account (primary unknown) exists for the requesting user, with 1752 total edits on 16 wikis. AnomieBOT⚡ 05:44, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Clerk note: The target user does not meet the target requirements for usurpation. They have a significant amount of edits and are currently an active editor. I'll leave it up to a 'crat to close this, but if you wish to change your username please select another. If you know one that you'd like that isn't taken already, you can get it done rather quickly at CHUS. dmz 06:02, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Actually, upon further investigation, it appears that this may be the same user on both accounts. User:Tyranny Sue is a redirect to User:TyrS, which is a bit of an unlikely coincidence in my opinion. It could just be nothing, but it could be something. If the requesting user could confirm or deny this, that would be appreciated. dmz 06:13, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, I'm the only user (that I know of) of either account (i.e. both accounts - are they separate?) but I log in the same way every time. I'm kind of confused about it actually. I wouldn't really care if I had to get a new name though. Sorry, what a mess. Whatever you guys decide is fine, I'm just too lazy to make up a new name is all.--TyrS 06:18, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

- We can't merge the accounts. We could rename "TyrS" to "TyrS (renamed)" and rename "Tyranny Sue" to "TyrS" if you like. Please log in to the TyrS account and post here certifying the request if you would like to do that. You could also just stop using one and use the one you want to use. –xenotalk 13:33, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Not done - appears editor will simply be using the TyrS (talk) account henceforth. –xenotalk 18:05, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hello, Sorry I missed whatever went on for some reason. I would like to do the "TyrS (renamed)" option mentioned above. At the moment it's very confusing, since sometimes "Tyranny Sue" comes up and sometimes "TyrS" - I'm not sure how this all happened, sorry. (Also the SineBot keeps unnecessarily adding a signature after I've signed. I'm not sure why.)--TyrS (talk) 12:48, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user, rename user
- Datestamp: 9 January 2011 (UTC)
- Reason: At a time when I first joined Wikipedia, I did not know what it is and put the name ArmOvak, but much time has passed, I gained experience and decided to change the name to Armen Ovaimyan and also so is more relevant and credible.
v/r - ArmOvak (talk) 22:05, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- Clerk note: The requested username "Armen Ovakimyan" is not registered. Please see WP:CHU/S instead. AnomieBOT⚡ 22:16, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- Are you ru:user:Armen Ovakimyan? They currently hold the SUL. If you are this person, please make a note at your ru.wiki talk page confirming this request. If you are not this person, you could try usurping the name at ru.wiki and then asking the stewards to delete the global account. Please take a look at the fair warning as to using a WP:REALNAME, though. –xenotalk 01:54, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- Not done; as there is nothing to usurp - also because identical request was filed at WP:CHUS. –xenotalk 02:45, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user, rename user
- Datestamp: 22:13, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

- Datestamp: 00:40, 12 January 2011 (UTC)You have not added a confirmation link! Replace this message with the url that confirms that you hold the SUL for URIEL.

- Not done There's nothing we can do to help you retrieve the password. Also, the name "Auriel" is taken by an en.wiki user (though inactive for about a year) and a pt.wiki user (inactive for about a year and a half). Would suggest choosing a name that is not taken on Wikimedia projects, you can use sulutil: to check. –xenotalk 14:43, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

- Datestamp: 21:09, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

VictoriaEdwards1 is listed as an autopatrolled and reviewer on the English Wikipedia, and has far more edits and pages associated to it, so I prefer that account. If this is impossible, please advise how I can use {{User Alternate Acct}}. Victoriaedwards (talk) 06:47, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- Note:
- The target username has made edits to Wikipedia. Due to licensing concerns, this may be a barrier to usurpation.

Requesting user has 8549 undeleted edits and 66 deleted edits, for a total of 8615 edits. An SUL account (primary enwiki) exists for the requesting user, with 8615 total edits on 2 wikis.

Secondly, the user is an active administrator, and thirdly holds the SUL for the account. However, if you can think of another name you would like to use, you can be renamed to that. Sorry for any inconvenience, demize (t · c) 03:50, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: I've notified the bureaucrat that carried out the usurpation of your objection; but I'm afraid that, at this late stage, we probably have to decline this request due a number of factors including those highlighted by demize above. Is there another name you would like? –xenotalk 13:51, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't want to give you false hope - this rename is unlikely to be reversed. I suggest you talk to the current user name User:JamesR and explain that you had never intended to cease using this name - he may agree to be renamed, in which case it potentially can be (although I note renames on a number of projects would be needed). Otherwise, I suggest you give thought to another name under which you would like to edit.

- There should be. Look at the history of the first archive: [1]. Looks like the bot has messed up and overwritten old requests. That archive should look like this (i.e. have requests from 2007). I wonder how many archives are effected :(.
- Looking at E/JamesR and Rdsmith4's contributions for December 2008, I don't think there's a request to find (though E/JamesR did withdraw a request for a different name [2]). WJBscribe (talk) 11:03, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
- My primary reasoning for changing my username from the single letter was the criticism in which it created cross wiki those years ago. There was no objection to the usurpation of the target username, in this case current username JamesR. I do not wish to have this request fulfilled and suggest a different username for the user requesting this. My username is known across many Wikimedia wikis, including foundation and meta, and also for my contributions to local Wikimedia chapters. I followed all procedures per the usurpation guidelines, including notifying the target username and filing a request. I am unsure as to why the request cannot be found in archives, because it was definitely made. — JamesR (talk) 03:29, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

- Target username: ARLibertarian (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google)
- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user
- Datestamp: 18:07, 20 February 2011 (UTC)You have not added a confirmation link! Replace this message with the url that confirms that you hold the SUL for ARLibertarian.
- Reason: Usurp (re-assume) ARLibertarian - I created an article for Carrolton Arkansas, and edited the Alpena Arakansas page some. But I must not have completed the registration properly. I did find an old email in my archives requesting that I verify my ID, but I must have been traveling. I'd like to associate the email address [redacted] with this user id.
I tried logging it with this ID but was told it didn't exist, but couldn't create it, because it already exists.
Thank you. [Wikipedia message truncated]
Can someone complete my registration?

- Reason: The user has registered recently (Dec/2010) without making any useful contributions and then he/she was soon blocked a month after his registration by an administrator as a non-useful contributor. I would very much like to use the username to make eponymous contributions to wikipedia. I'm using the same handle in several other places (twitter, linkedin, blogspot, etc) and that would make my life a lot easier. I am not yet established in wikipedia but I'm very well established in the opensource community and I would like my contributions to take place under this unified handler and not have to rename them later. Thank you very much for you consideration.

- The only reason I started this, is because he has made only 1 edit in last 4 years and I thought I could end my SUL. But now he objected. Could you rename me to Steadfast(enwiki) or Steadfast-enwiki and add it to my SUL "Steadfast"? And can you tell me, how I delete my accounts I accidentally made as "Plzmergethis" at the other wikis? Thanks. --Plzmergethis (talk) 10:45, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: You ask a few questions. I'm inclined to agree to rename you to Steadfastxxx, because it seems the other user has no interest in editing here and there's therefore no chance of confusion, but I'd welcome other crat opinion. To the best of my knowledge, we aren't able to add a differently named account to an SUL. Perhaps a Steward can, it's beyond my knowledge. Anyone? We don't delete accounts, but you can contact the crats at other wikis and request they rename those accounts, but you'll need to explain to them why they should bother to do this. --Dweller (talk) 14:04, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think CentralAuth (i.e. SUL) supports different names in the same unified login. Since the requesting user used "Steadfast" only on a small number of wikis to actually edit, I would suggest he requests a rename to a completely unused name at de-wiki and then requests that those few used accounts (like here or at commons) are renamed afterwards. That way he can get a completely unified account and since he was renamed on de-wiki etc., he can re-register those accounts and create a redirect to the new name. Regards SoWhy 19:56, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- I think renaming me into "Steadfastxxx" instead of "Steadfast" here would be much less time-consuming for me, than renaming and re-register at the other wikis. Much more could go wrong. I will then live well without a sul.--Plzmergethis (talk) 09:52, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
