GreatOrangePumpkin → Tomcat

Status: Not done

Current username: GreatOrangePumpkin (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
Target username: Tomcat (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (advise user)

Reason: I feel that some people assume I am a very young person. My current name may be a bit childish and nonserious, but I wish to have this name redirected to my proposed username. User:Tomcat has only 3 edits on en.wikipedia but the same user made 80 edits to pl.wiki and 15 to ja.wiki, so I am not sure if the usurpation will function. Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 11:01, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Datestamp: 11:33, 18 October 2012 (UTC)You have not added a confirmation link! Replace this message with the url that confirms that you hold the SUL for lovetruth.
Reason: I'm planning on being much more active and would prefer to use my contemporaneous nickname. Also, I was not able to find any posts of lovetruth, don't know if he/she (if there is any, I wasn't able to sign up with lovetruth because it said there is already one, although http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Lovetruth said different - can it be just a bug? If so, how can I sign up for that username?...). What can I do? My gmail username is all4jesus; can I login using google account too?... Thank you for your promptitude!
Note: This request has been detected as an usurp only request.

Not as far as I know :-) Grant | Talk 04:00, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

That'll most likely be a barrier to usurpation. They have more than 300 edits, as recent as October 2010, and they currently own the claim to the SUL. Granting this usurpation would effectively take over their claim. See WP:Handling SUL conflicts — Frankie (talk) 14:16, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Not done For two reasons. First, the target username at Mongolian Wikipedia has last edited on 18 December 2012. Secondly, you were recently unbanned. This makes you ineligible for a cleanstart account as it would avoid scrutiny. Furthermore, the evasion of scrutiny is your reason for this request, i.e. to avoid associations of the present username. As a rename would avoid scrutiny, I am declining this request, and all other rename requests until 2014. Maxim_(talk) 21:56, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

While the target name may not be free on Mongolian Wikipedia, I think this generic refusal is a little hasty. It has not been established that Claritas is ineligable for cleanstart "The committee didn't forbid a clean start. An arbitrator, of his own volition, stopped it in its tracks once it had happened." Secondly, and more importantly, Claritas has been advised to instead simply change name. If this means Claritas can become a productive editor then we should support it. The alternative is that either Claritas leaves the project or does something silly. I think you can be pretty sure that both Carrite and I would be keeping an eye from time to time, though I shouldn't speak for Carrite, and I suspect a few others would too. Doubtless Carrite will have an opinion on this, which they will express better than I have expressed mine, I will leave a note. Rich Farmbrough, 03:05, 2 January 2013 (UTC).

Reason: old twitter account (@justincombs). This account was created by me years ago whenever I first joined twitter, but was not that familiar with twitter. My computer was hacked, as well as my email address and whoever done it gained access to my Facebook and twitter accounts and got them both suspended. I'm not so sure what was done to get it suspended here on twitter but I was told the person was spamming/harassing and aggressive following. I tried recovering my password through email recovery and the email had been changed on it and I still never regained access through the email account that was hacked, as they changed all my personal information.

Reason: Securing potential impersonation doppelganger accounts. An edited Cut&Paste from earlier related request as being the same reason: "I wish to secure account names which might be used to impersonate me. User:ZigZagStudios was my first active user account, which eventually I change to synced to my General Online Persona of User:Love Robin (with-space), which will remain my serious editing account. I then re-made ZigZagStudios to secure it against impersonations (having made over 200 edits with it); also, I was granted permission to use the "fursona" of the BlackRabbit Furry Character "Zig Zag", so I'm rather protective of the name(s). So while I (have secured) potential doppelganger accounts of "Love Robin" (User:LoveRobin(no-space), User:Loverobin(no-space, lower-'r'), I would also like to secure doppels of my first account. There will be transparency as I shall openly link accounts. Chances are I may at times use ZigZag for non-editing "casual" researching. Please and Thank you." I shall also be going after "Zig Zag" (space, cap-z) and "Zig zag" (space, small-z). I realize there are MANY unsernames starting with variations of zigzag, but aside from my original, after these I will satisfied.

Not done. I am generally relucant to allow usurpations who purpose is to facilitate users have second accounts (as opposed to renaming their main accounts). In any event, usurpation is a process generally reserved for users in good standing and I am concerned about the recent indefblock and related discussions on your talkpage. If after a couple of months of editing there have been no further blocks, it might be worth repeating the request, but it would help if you explained at that time what use you plan to make of your second account. WJBscribe (talk) 15:43, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

I understand your hesitation and have no problem with your decision to deny my request. As I stated in the linked discussion with an administrator above, I had been hesitant to request the second account because Iwas afraid I would just get blocked and accused of "abusing multiple accounts" even though the ShoeMaker account would have 0 edits (I'd even do the redirects to this account from that account using this Technical_13 account)." Would it be unreasonable to request that the ShoeMaker account name be placed on administrative hold to allow me enough time to ease your mind that my intentions here are good? Thank you.

Reason: When I created my account I used the name "TheDarkUnicorn" but I actually wanted just the name "Dark Unicorn" (without "The", and with a space in between the words) as my username but I think "DarkUnicorn" was taken or was told it was too similiar or something, and I didn't want to add silly numbers after the name hence the "the". I also didn't realize I could put spaces in until after I created the account. I understand User:Dark Unicorn exists but there are no edits from that account.I would really appreciate if you could change my current username to "Dark Unicorn" - as per my signature, as this is how I would rather be identified. Thanks.

Reason: I already have the "Neelix" account on the English Wikipedia, but I wish for my account to be unified across all Wikimedia projects without losing the username "Neelix". At present, I have the "Neelix" username on the English Wikipedia, MediaWiki, and Meta-Wiki. The most edits that have been made under the username "Neelix" by anyone else on other projects is 9. Can I usurp the other "Neelix" accounts on svwiki, commonswiki, dewiki, frwiki, ruwiki, and huwiki? I didn't notify any of them because I don't know how to speak all of those languages.

Neelix (talk) 20:30, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

This is a SUL request. I was told to come here by people at the help desk. Neelix (talk) 20:32, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Not done. We can only rename you on enwiki. If you like, you can visit each of those projects and request usurpation on each of those projects (I can point you to the right page on each project if you do). But it's probably not worth the effort as you should end up with the name on all projects as a result of Single User Login finalisation at the end of this month without doing anything. Are you able to make your account a global one by going to Special:MergeAccount and link the accounts you do control? WJBscribe (talk) 20:39, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

The reason that I made this request was because I received the notification of the Single User Login finalisation you mentioned and I was afraid that I would lose my username simply because there are some inactive accounts on other Wikimedia projects that also use the username "Neelix". Are you saying that, if I just leave everything be, I will retain the "Neelix" username on Wikipedia and my account will be unified as "Neelix" across all other Wikimedia projects? I don't quite understand what you are recommending I should do with Special:MergeAccount, but I am willing to do what needs doing to retain my username. Neelix (talk) 20:45, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Have you tried clicking on Special:MergeAccount and following the instructions? The outcome should help us work out if there will be a problem when it comes to SUL finalisation. WJBscribe (talk) 20:49, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

I have followed the instructions, but the system won't let me merge with commons.wikimedia.org, de.wikipedia.org, fr.wikipedia.org, hu.wikipedia.org, ru.wikipedia.org, and sv.wikipedia.org because other people started those accounts and I don't have their passwords. What would you recommend I do next? Neelix (talk) 00:06, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Now that you definitely have the global account, you can safely do nothing as you will get all those accounts automatically at the end of the month. You can find out more at Wikipedia:Unified login/Finalisation. WJBscribe (talk) 12:49, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Awesome. Thanks very much! Neelix (talk) 19:16, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Not done Sorry, but the block isn't the only problem thrown up by your request. I'd be willing to overlook it given the community's approval of your return to editing. However, an account by the same name already exists on huwiki (active, 11646 edits). That user is entitled to the name across all projects in accordance with unified login finalisation. WJBscribe (talk) 14:23, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

unified login finalisation is not much clear about such situation. It is essentially saying that if I have username 'Neo' on en-wiki with X edits and if user:Neo on hu-wiki have Y edits and if X<Y then my en-wiki username 'Neo' would be renamed to make it free for hu-wiki user. If that hu-wiki user claim 'Neo' username in future, you can usurp it for him as per SUL policy. I will not have any objection. Until then I deserve this username. My request is almost 6 year old and en-wiki is my homewiki. If I edit wikipedia just to increase number of edits to claim that username then it would be inappropriate. I request you to please reconsider your decision. Thanks. neo (talk) 15:51, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

Single login finalisation is going to happen and is only a few months away. I will not perform a rename that will create a further conflict to be resolved. I am sorry, but the only person entitled to usurp Neo on this project is the huwiki editor who uses that name, WJBscribe (talk) 22:55, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
