- 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 already a global account registered for TeT. 1 unattached account exists with this name. The local account is not attached. --Chris G Bot 3 (talk) 19:30, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
- Bureaucrat note: It appears that a user on another Wikimedia project (fr.wiki) holds the claim to the SUL for this name. Please see Wikipedia:Handling SUL conflicts for more information on this topic.. You will first need to usurp at fr.wiki and at WP:USURP before having a steward delete the global account.

Thanks! I just tried to log on using the new username and old password, and it did not work. Is there a certain amount of time before that user name is able to be used?

- Thanks for the heads up. What would be the procedure at this point? A dev running an sql command to carry out the action? Also while not critical but while at it - would deleted edits be also attributed? I have leftovers from older account too (Special:Contributions/Cool_Cat). Thanks. -- とある白い猫 chi? 11:10, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, a dev needs to run a cleanup script. When they do this is entirely up to them and I'm fairly sure they only do it for rename breakages, not account mergers. MBisanz talk 12:13, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
- It should be given a few weeks before finding a developer. Could just be waiting in the job queue. –xenotalk 18:59, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
