--Friedrichstrasse (talk) 09:43, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

The choosen username is already taken. Also should be noted that you have been blocked on itwiki and you have a lot of edits, so if you will be renamed at some time, a sysadmin need to look that it's ok. --Stryn (talk) 14:27, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
Is "Arbalete" already taken??--Friedrichstrasse (talk) 15:42, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
@Friedrichstrasse: Yes, see Special:CentralAuth/Arbalete. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 15:47, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
So, is it impossible to get the new nickname?--Friedrichstrasse (talk) 16:16, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
@Friedrichstrasse: You could ask or email the user to see if they are willing to change their name so you can edit with it. –xeno 17:31, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
@Friedrichstrasse: Status? --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:35, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
I cannot send any e-mail.--Friedrichstrasse (talk) 17:45, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
At least you can leave a message to the user on their talk page. --Stryn (talk) 19:10, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
But he seems to be completely inactive!--Friedrichstrasse (talk) 20:55, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
With the proposed usurpation policy, this username can be usurped. But please leave them a note on their user talk page first and give them a chance to choose a new username within a week. Afterwards, we can proceed with the usurpation. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:14, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Done!--Friedrichstrasse (talk) 17:29, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 On hold till 6 August (pending user reaction). --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:34, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
Because there has been raised no concerns at all i will rename this user together with sysadmin (because of the high editcount) today between 16:00 - 18:00 CEST. --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:36, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
Done (The rename process is still running and can take some hours) --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:46, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

@Norum: Do you have access to your e-mail address? Then try Special:PasswordReset. --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:50, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
That's one of the problems. Don't know which one I was using. And considering I originally registered back in 2006, I may not even have that email address anymore. I dont even know if I had an email registered with my account. Nordman5000 (talk) 22:24, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
@Nordman5000: Unfortunately, there is no proof that you are the real owner of "Norum". We can do nothing for you, if you can't confirm ownership of the "Norum" account. See en:Help:Logging_in#What_if_I_forget_the_password.3F. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:19, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
So another proof how useless Wiki really is. Nordman5000 (talk) 11:54, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
Not done (it isn't wikis fault if you are not able to access your mail and pw) --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:59, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

@Inhakito: There is yet a account "Iñaki" with 33 edits on cawiki. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:11, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
@Steinsplitter: I guess, that account could be renamed to "Iñaki~cawiki" since it has not edit outside cawiki, and it does not edit since 2008. If it is not possible, then rename my account to "Iñaki Salazar". User Talk:Inhakito 23:27, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Iñaki has valid edits and therefore we can't rename the account pursuant to usurpation policy (i also talked with a steward, usurping Iñaki is not ok). Therefore i rename you to Iñaki Salazar. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:37, 15 August 2015 (UTC)

Is it possible to merge my accounts (all named Eurocommuter)? I’ve been contributing “in burst mode” for a number of years as “Eurocommuter”. Not since 2013 though. I have a number of diagrams on commons used on English, French, German, Polish and I think Italian Wikipedia. I’ve been updating them regularly (not frequently; only when tre underlying data changed) I’ve had “Eurocommuter” account on each of the above wikis, so the conflict” is among my own accounts I believe. I used the same username/password on commons all wikis listed above. Would it be possible to rename all these accounts back to Eurocommuter? Many thanks! If in order to “sign” I need to log on all this accounts, please indicate the procedure to follow Kind regards –Eurocommuter

Hi all, I have asked a Japanese bureaucrat for their opinion. Maybe the account on jawiki can be renamed. If not, you will have to choose a different name. All the best, Taketa (talk) 10:36, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
See Requests for comment/Usurpation policy --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:48, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
Ah Surgenski does not have enough edits to usurp an account. Sorry for that. You will have to chose a different name. Taketa (talk) 14:22, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
Not done then. You can still request a new username which is not in use yet. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:51, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
  • @Taketa and Steinsplitter: could you please reconsider? The target account is a blocked sockpuppet who edited for one day in 2006: we should deny recognition and not allow this vandal to bedblock names that actual users would like to use (whether or not they meet this arbitrary '400 edit' requirement that isn't even ratified). –xeno 12:47, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
    @Taketa, Steinsplitter, and Xeno: I'd favor this, however I wasn't sure. Requesting user has 200 edits aprox... Best regards, —MarcoAurelio 13:15, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
    @Taketa, Steinsplitter, and MarcoAurelio: Yes, I think it qualifies under the old ja:WP:USURP rules anyway, but Penn Station hasn't gotten back to me. On the balance, I'd prefer we give the name to the good faith user - when the target user was blocked, global SUL didn't even exist. –xeno 22:23, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
    The intention is to limit usurping accounts to experienced users. This editor had been around 2 weeks before asking a usurpation. Personally I prefer an even harsher usurpation guideline [2]. Though I can understand this is a special case with a blocked account, this is only the case because the SUL finialisation renamed the non-blocked accounts that used this name. I do not have any objections though if someone else feels the rename should be done. Taketa (talk) 04:37, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
    I've gone ahead and done the rename solely on the grounds that this is a special case with a blocked account (I feel usurps should be more freely granted, but I recognize that would normally not be permitted here). MBisanz talk 16:32, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

There is an account on sr.wikipedia w/ this name, but it's not used. I already wrote request from my other account for usurpation long time ago (10th May 2015), but user didn't respond. I would like to proceed with usurpation if everything is fine. --Fullminant (talk) 12:11, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

I am hesitant to grant this request because the sr.wiki account is recently registered. MBisanz talk 16:35, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
It is an old account. The sul is likely new because of sul finalization. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:32, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
That's right, Steinsplitter. Accounts on other Wikipedias are moved to "Munja~xxwiki" and, I don't know why, on sr.wiki account is left untouched. --Fullminant (talk) 18:54, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

Due to the SUL merging, it looks like some of my contributions (on en.wiki) are credited to Luk (which is my main username but was obviously in conflict), and my contributions on other wikis are made under Lucasbfr.

@Luk: Would you be fine if I'd only local-rename your commonswiki, frwiki and metawiki Lucasbfr accounts to Luk so that you can merge them manually on en:Special:MergeAccount? Then I would rename Luk@commonswiki, @frwiki and @metawiki to a random name. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:14, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Yes, renaming locally to Luk seems the best course. On the top of my head, I think they are the only wikis where Lucasbfr had significant edits. Thanks DerHexer! Luk (talk) 09:31, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
Isn't better to ask Lego or Hoo to manually merge the accounts? —MarcoAurelio 09:38, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
No, we can do such easy fixes ourselves. There's no need for a global merge tool if the original user has no problems with getting rid of one of the local accounts (when they don't have much edits for example). Therefore, done. Luk, please merge your accounts on Special:MergeAccount by submitting their respective passwords. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 09:47, 27 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, with 4000 edits you have enough edits to take over another account. With 0 edits in mainspace in total and no activity since 2012 I think "Johanna" can be usurped.
