I usually used the account de:User:Lix and commons:User:Lix. On meta:User:Lix I made a SUL account, where I would like to merge all accounts. But therefore I would need to usurp the account fr:User:Lix. See: fr:WP:USURP#Lix.
Thank you for your help & kind regards,
Lix 13:56, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If the fr.wiki account is granted to you, or you are able to create an SUL from the de.wiki account, we can grant you the name on en.wiki. For good measure, you should also look at obtaining at least the tum. and hu. accounts. –xenotalk 14:05, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi xeno. Ok, thanks. - Will do so. The fr.wiki account fr:User:Lix is actually a Troll with no contributions to the Wikipedia project, using 3 different accounts (read on top of his User page). Thanks for your assistance.- Wkr, Lix 14:10, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
... and btw: tum:User:Lix is one of my accounts already. - Lix 14:15, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi xeno. I was able to merge some accounts to a SUL account. Could you please assign en:User:Lix too?
Thanks for your assistance & kr,

I assume the user meant DCWikiped, and this is what they stated in their unblock request - so I've moved the usurp request over to DCWikiped and have kicked this ahead 7 days. –xenotalk 01:21, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

GuySperanza → Dementia13

[edit]

Status:     Done

GuySperanza (talk) 03:13, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: I have a well-established pattern of use of the name "Dementia13" on numerous websites and forums for over a decade. I use it as an e-mail address, I have registered the "dementia13.net" domain name, and I am published as a recording artist under that name. I also feel uncomfortable with my current user name, as it is the name of a deceased person. If I edited pages related to him under his name...well, that feels a little ghoulish.

  • I'm confused again: Why would you create the account rather than simply filing at WP:CHUS as I suggested above? Are you doing this to try and re-enter the Italian Wikipedia? If so, I am minded to deny the request - you should seek unblocking at it.wiki directly. –xenotalk 14:36, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Although my name (obviously) appears as Superfopp in edit histories, editors call me both Superfopp and Asarlaí in discussions, which can cause confusion. Asarlaí is the name I prefer.

Drini → Magister Mathematicae

[edit]

Status:     Done

-- m:drini 04:41, 8 July 2010 (UTC) This a somewhat unsual request and I'd like to explain.[reply]

I've been using my current username "drini" for about a decade in many sites, and over the years it's become strongly linked to my real identity. But this correlation is particularly strong on wikipedia where googling for my realname quickly points to my username. Several unpleasant incidents in the past had me thinking over a username change for several months but due to my manywiki involvement I've been hesitant.

I'm not trying to actually hide anything, so here I'm publicly asking and stating the username I want. I also fully understand the logs are public and that anyone determined enough will be able to add up 2 plus 2. The problem is that my username is very strongly linked to my real name and I don't want it to be so much plain evident to my work or university. My problem is not much that within wikimedia it's know who I am, my concern comes from real life issues.

The process to perform the name change involves many wikis but most of them would be no problem except for a very few where I have substantial contribs (as this one). Therefore I'm starting the process on this one (hoping it would be doable as otherwise it would be pointless to do it on the simpler cases). I also know this involves deattaching the account from the SUL, I'll make all the arrangements necessary so everything is neat when I'm done.

The target account Magister Mathematicae is mine but I made a single interwiki edit by mistake, hope it's not too much of a problem to usurp it (I can prove it's mine if needed by leaving a note on its talk). Reason it exists it's because I thought it would be easier (due to the amount of wiki involved) to create the new account and move flags on the few ones I have, but then someone reminded logs and history pages would be lost so I better take the long path.

Again, I'm not trying to hide anything and I'll answer open and clearly to anyone asking about this, nor I will try to deny or hide my former username. Also I'm fully aware this is a complex procedure, that's why I was hesitant to request it (and I would not be asking it if it wasn't involving offwiki concerns). -- m:drini 04:41, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Drini's word is good here. MBisanz talk 04:43, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reason - Dmartinaus (D Martin Austin) is a name I use frequently elsewhere in forums, blogs, Facebook and is my Twitter name. I do not wish to be quite so public on Wikipedia for possible harassment issues which I have experienced in the past DmartinausTalk 02:43, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How do you undo an email? Can you forward a copy of the email? Thanks, –xenotalk 13:39, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I obviously did not "take back" the email itself, but rather took off the posting of the email on his userpage (sorry about all this!!!), as follows. I truly accidentally thought I was supposed to send an email and only realized later that was not the case. Here is the email. I beleive it was the same standd form that an would haee otherwise been sent by others: DmartinausTalk 16:20, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
(Email sent to Austex on July 4, 2010 Dmartinaus • Talk 13:45, 4 July 2010 (UTC))
"Hello, Austex. A request has been made at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations to usurp, or "take over", your username because you have not used it to edit, and another user would like to use it to edit. Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations says that any unused username may be usurped if the user is given an opportunity to object and does not do so."
"If you have an email set in your preferences, you should be getting an email from a bureaucrat or changing username clerk explaining how to consent or object to this process."
No, that's fine, and don't sweat it. After the time elapses, I see no issue with granting this. –xenotalk 17:53, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
