MrADHD → Literaturegeek[edit]

@MrADHD: This request can't be handled here because it involves the usurpation of a user account. You may wish to file a request at m:SRUC, which does process username usurpations. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 11:08, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Are you sure you are not mistaken? I do not need to usurp an account. I am only asking for a username change here on Wikipedia. Literaturegeek username no longer exists on Wikipedia.

@MrADHD: The username does exist on another Wikimedia project; it exists on Commons. See Special:CentralAuth/Literaturegeek. Usernames are now global and they must be usurped, even if on another project. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 17:19, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Xeno, I am writing from the Literaturegeek account in a sense because Literaturegeek was simply renamed to MrADHD. Literaturegeek no longer exists on Wikipedia. My Literaturegeek account on commons still exists though.--MrADHD | T@1k? 18:04, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
ok, Please write a note on commons from Literaturegeek confirming the request. Unfortunately we cannot merge accounts but I can swap their names. –xenotalk 18:12, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, what does that mean if you cannot merge accounts? I lose contributions from MrADHD or something? I have made an edit on Wikimedia commons from the LG account. :-)--MrADHD | T@1k? 18:21, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
What accounts were you referencing when you mentioned merging. I am confused. Thanks.--MrADHD | T@1k? 18:26, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
To merge an account is to combine the user contributions of two or more accounts into one account. For example, if User A and User B were merged together, all of User A's edits and all of User B's edits would be assigned to the same username. WMF said that the merge tool would be available in June 2015, but it never came to be. Thus, edits are forever chained to the account they were made by, so User A's edits cannot be merged into User B's edits. The one thing we can do is to rename Literaturegeek, and then rename your current username to Literaturegeek, essentially performing an usurpation. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 18:31, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I think that I understand, thank you for explaining. Before any decision is made, can you tell me if there is any idea of when the merge tool will become available? Is it still being developed or worked on?--MrADHD | T@1k? 18:41, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There is no word on the merge tool, unfortunately. We only know that it won't be available anytime soon. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 18:46, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If I simply recreated Literaturegeek as a new username, would all the contributions that were created by Literaturegeek between 2007-2011 (there were thousands upon thousands) show up under the contributions link of the account? I am thinking a temporary fix would be to recreate Literaturegeek, and put a redirect or explanation on the MrADHD user page that MrADHD is an inactive account that will later be merged. Then I could edit as Literaturegeek and at a later date when the merge tool comes out merge MrADHD with Literaturegeek.--MrADHD | T@1k? 18:57, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, it would have an empty contributions.
Probably what you want is for me to rename "Literaturegeek" to "MrADHD temp", and then rename "MrADHD" to "LiteratureGeek" (taking all your enwiki contributions along with it) and then rename "MrADHD temp" (your commons account) to "MrADHD".
But Actually I think we can ask a Steward to use the local rename tool to achieve a merge.
DerHexer or MBisanz can you locally rename commons:user:MrADHD to MrADHD (usurped) and then locally rename "commons:user:Literaturegeek" to "MrADHD", and then MrADHD can use special:MergeAccount and then we rename him to Literaturegeek? Would this work? –xenotalk 19:59, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Are my thousands of Literaturegeek contributions made between 2007-2012 lost forever then? Like they can never be re associated with Literaturegeek account?--MrADHD | T@1k? 22:42, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I do NOT want any action taken until I or we know exactly what is going on and what the result to my contributions will be of any proposed change.--MrADHD | T@1k? 23:02, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, hold on a minute. Hold on a minute!! All of my Literaturegeek Wikipedia contributions ARE listed but under this MrADHD account going back many years! I never lost them! When Literaturegeek was simply renamed to MrADHD they just continued to be listed but under MrADHD. Whatever simple rename procedure that was applied in 2012 to change Literaturegeek to MrADHD, can it not simply be repeated but in reverse? And my Wikipedia contributions will still be listed but under Literaturegeek? Or has there been a significant change to how the servers and Wikipedia works now when renaming? There is no need to usurp on Wikipedia because the Literaturegeek account does not exist unless this new global name system has confused things?--MrADHD | T@1k? 22:59, 24 September 2015 (UTC) And when I was renamed from Literaturegeek to MrADHD in 2012 my whole watchlist was also retained. Surely there is a simple renaming way to keep my watch list and contributions intact? What has changed from 2012 to 2015?--MrADHD | T@1k? 06:51, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Watchlists and user preferences are kept when an account is renamed. And perhaps there's some confusion here, so I'll do my best to clarify. Your username used to be Literaturegeek, until it was renamed to MrADHD, your current username (correct?). Back then, renames weren't global, and only the local account would be renamed (IIRC), which resulted in issues with accounts being detached from global accounts. I don't remember the exact details, since it's been a while ago and I haven't had much interaction with renaming until about a year and a half ago. In July 2014, they introduced the m:Global rename policy and the global renamer user group, which allowed "global renamers" and stewards to rename global accounts; local rename options for bureaucrats were subsequently removed. Thus, renames were now global: if you had 200 edits on the English Wikipedia, and 50 edits on the English Wiktionary, and you requested a global rename, your entire global account would be renamed, as well as any local accounts attached to it, so you'll keep all the edits from the English Wikipedia and Wiktionary. In April of 2015, SUL finalization took place and forced all users to have a global account, eliminating the dilemma of dangling local accounts entirely. What a global account does is reserve a registered username on all wikis so that other users cannot create an account with it, even if that account doesn't exist on the local wiki. For example, if I had never visited Commons, I would not have a local account there. However, if I have a global account, I can still block other users from taking my username on Commons. Thus, the username is considered "taken" even though the local account doesn't exist on Commons. So if someone on Commons wanted my username, they'd still have to go through the usurpation process because I own the global account of the username they want. Thus, we can't simply "reverse" the rename because there's already a global account with the name "Literaturegeek", with a local account on Commons. Even though it lacks a local account on the English Wikipedia, because of the SUL system it is considered to be taken. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 11:35, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to edit on en.wiki as "Literaturegeek", we need your commons "Literaturegeek" account out of the way. So we could rename the commons Literaturegeek (and any attached now-accounts) to something else, and then rename MrADHD to Literaturegeek. Your edits, made as the first Literaturegeek and MrADHD would all then reside at en.wiki:Literaturegeek. However, unless a Steward can stitch your commons account into your main account as I suggested above, your commons edits would appear under a different name. –xenotalk 11:49, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm happy to help, but can someone clearly tell me which accounts to move where? Is the goal to move only the non-en-wiki Literaturegeek accounts out of the way and then move MrADHD to Literaturegeek? MBisanz talk 11:52, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Can you still local rename and ignore collisions?
I think what would be best for MrADHD/LG would be: rename "commons:Literaturegeek" to "Literaturegeek (temp)".
Rename "MrADHD" to "Literaturegeek"
Rename "commons:Literaturegeek (temp)" to "Literaturegeek"
Customer merges all Literaturegeek accounts. –xenotalk 12:43, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That is correct k6cal. I am starting to understand. I don't care much about the wiki commons Literaturegeek account, it only has 5 edits or so so rename, delete or whatever is necessary. It is losing the contribution history associated with the MrADHD account when I rename to Literaturegeek on Wikipedia that worries me. I do not mind my commons edits being under a different name. Yes MBisanz, that is about it but preserving my contributions.--MrADHD | T@1k? 23:39, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • MBisanz so can we stitch him back together or should we just move Literaturegeek out of the way and usurp regularly? –xenotalk 16:09, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, MB. Literaturegeek please press special:MergeAccount and you should be all set. –xenotalk 18:20, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Woohoo, thank you guys! :-) Everything is looking good here. I apologise for taking up your time with this matter. I am a very grateful Literaturegeek! Hehe :-)--MrADHD | T@1k? 20:00, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Done @DeepakRathore: There are two users by the names Deepak Rathore and Deepak rathore that have similar usernames to the one you have been renamed to. They are currently inactive, so they should not cause any issues. However, if they do return and confusion arises, you may need to request another username change. --I am k6ka Talk to me!

Riggr Mortis → Outriggr*[edit]

@Riggr Mortis: If it's possible, could you ask that arbitrator to post here confirming that you own Outriggr? Also, would you like to usurp Outriggr so you can have your old username back? You won't get your password or any of the edits on that account, but you will be able to get the username. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 11:51, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@K6ka: Yes I would like to usurp Outriggr but I don't understand what happens to the edits under that account--what do they show up as, if not "associated" with the usurped user:Outriggr?
@Risker: Hi Risker. Can you provide confirmation with respect to the above? Thanks both, Riggr Mortis (talk) 14:02, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I can confirm that both accounts are "owned" and operated by the same person. Is there any possibility that the accounts can be merged? I know that the developer team was working on this, but I'm not sure they had enough confidence in the process for accounts with this number of edits. Risker (talk) 14:10, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(After I saw the note at meta about 'Global User Merge' I dedided to proceed with a regular name change. However, if a merge is possible, I'm still interested. Riggr Mortis (talk) 14:15, 5 October 2015 (UTC))[reply]
Merge is unfortunately not possible, but you can try to ask again in one year (i don't think the merge tool will be available in the next months). Of course, usurping is possible if you want the username asap. Best. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:20, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Outriggr -> Outriggr (2006-2009) ; Riggr Mortis -> Outriggr. Hope that's acceptable.  Donexenotalk 14:23, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
