SivaneshR → Sivanesh

Current name: SivaneshR (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)

Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
AntiSpoof: antispoof check
For global renamer: rename user
Datestamp: 16:08, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Reason: My actual name is Sivanesh only. I really don't remember why I opted for the user name SivaneshR. I personally feel that I should be named as what I am known in the real world. Hence I humbly request the bureaucrats to consider my name change request favourably. R.Sivanesh ✆ 16:08, 27 February 2011 (UTC) R.Sivanesh ✆ 16:08, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Robot clerk note: I have detected the following problems:

The requested username is already registered; see Special:Listusers. However, as this requested account has made no edits, it meets the criteria for being usurped; if you wish to usurp it, please read and follow the process at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations. If you do not wish to usurp the username, please choose another name to be renamed to.
There is no global account registered for Sivanesh, however there are 2 unattached accounts on other wikis. --Chris G Bot 3 (talk) 16:10, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I am withdrawing this request since I have placed a request to usurp the target user account. R.Sivanesh ✆ 18:38, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

When creating the account did not realise the risk of using my own name and surname ie harrassment so would like to change it. Thank you

Bureaucrat note: As your request appears to be related to a desire for anonymity/privacy, please note that a permanent log record will be created noting your previous name. As such, you might consider simply creating a new account and having your current account renamed to something random and abandoning it. Please advise. –xeno^talk 21:55, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hodja Nasreddin → Biophys

Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
AntiSpoof: antispoof check
For global renamer: rename user
Datestamp: 16:47, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
Reason: I ask to move it back to my previous username to avoid confusion. I am a subject of standing sanctions by Arbcom. Sorry for the trouble. Biophys (talk) 16:47, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Robot clerk note: There is no global account registered for Biophys, however there are 5 unattached accounts on other wikis. --Chris G Bot 3 (talk) 16:50, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Toolserver search shows only four accounts. The accounts in German wikipedia and Wikibooks are not my accounts. I do not mind to withdraw this request if it is problematic for whatever reason.Biophys (talk) 17:11, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

→ The user "Hodja Nasreddin" has 29,226 contributions, renaming a user with more than 25,000 contributions could adversely affect site performance. ←

^ There seems to be a new "feature" that is actively preventing renaming users with over 25,000 edits. Otherwise I don't see a problem with your request to go back to your previous name (as long as you won't ask to be renamed again subsequently). I think you might ask at m:SR/UC about this, I would gather stewards can bypass the restriction. –xeno^talk 16:58, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you. Let's not proceed with this request right now (I might ask about this at at m:SR/UC later). I asked mostly because two editors came to my talk page and asked to help them with editing Soviet Union-related articles, apparently unaware that I am a subject of sanctions. Hodja Nasreddin (talk) 17:06, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - Ok - marked " Not done", but stewards can take this note as confirmation that we would've performed the rename were it not for the technical restriction. –xeno^talk 17:16, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
