  • Xeno, yea, I don't think that's how other admins usually proceed, but for such UTRS cases I prefer requesting the rename on the user's behalf and unblocking once renamed. Thanks! ☺ · Salvidrim! ·  18:57, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Bradley1313: Sorry, the new username is too similar to Bleye. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 19:05, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
We can go ahead with this one I think, K6ka. "Bley3" does not easily confuse for "Bleye"; also Bleye is not very active so they probably wont be confused for each other. The first request was probably okay also.
Don't worry too much if someone's name is going to be only marginally similar to a user who is not very active or on some other project. With globalization, so many names will be hitting the anti-spoof check we can't be denying all the requests.
If someone came around asking to be renamed to N3wyorkbr4d or something, that is where anti-spoof checks are helpful. Overridding anti-spoof involves a lot of nuance and there isn't any guidance on it, I'm afraid.
You can always warn the user that they might need to be renamed further if any confusion arises, this would give you an "out" in case someone objects to the similarity. –xenotalk 19:55, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thanks Xeno.  Done @B1313: I've renamed you to your original choice, sorry for the inconvenience. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 20:01, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Renamer note: If this is a request for courtesy vanishing—meaning you intend never to edit the English Wikipedia again—or are you just wanting to abandon this account? Please note that returning after exercising courtesy vanishing may be met with automatic relinking of the new account with the old one. If you are just interested in retiring, an extended vacation, or are considering a clean start in the future, placing {{retired}} on your user and/or talk page(s) and abandoning the account is the better option. Please advise. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 13:20, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Renamer note: Sorry, but (and this is for Ritchie333 too) "Meapiano" is still a company name. See meapianostudio.com. It's the same as "Mea Piano Studio", just without the "studio" part. (e.g. "Google Inc." and "Google" is still the same thing) Please pick a new name that clearly denotes you as an individual, such as "John at Mea Piano Studio" or something completely different. --I am k6ka Talk to me!
