I didn't find in zhich subpage the interwikis can be edited, would be whise to add Commons:Changing username--Kimdime69 (talk) 15:07, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Links to Commons can't be added to the left side. I'm not entirely sure if we need to link to it directly from here, if for no other reason than the question of "where do we draw the line on non-WP rename pages?" EVula // talk // ☯ // 17:41, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What if a username was registered years ago, but never used? I would like to switch my username to RidgeRunner or Ridgerunner. Both were registered 3 years ago and have made 1 and 0 edits, respectively. I think it's pretty unlikely these names are going to be used again.--Flash176 (talk) 23:46, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's what WP:USURP is for. EVula // talk // ☯ // 01:20, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ah ha. Many thanks.--Flash176 (talk) 04:00, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WP:RTV is quite confusing. It says the following in the "How to leave" section: "user talk pages – these are generally not deleted unless a user is exercising a permanent right to vanish."

Then in the "Vanishing from Wikipedia" section it says the opposite: "user talks per convention are almost never deleted."71.88.58.198 (talk) 01:06, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's good to see that users continue to help on these boards to make the process more efficient. Just one little thing...
I see a lot of messages asking users to make requests on a different noticeboard. Please, if you have time, could you move the request to the right place? Especially when users are coming from other projects (ie. for SUL related requests) and English is not their first language, the process is bound to be a little baffling. Many thanks, WJBscribe (talk) 19:21, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. "Please move this request to [wherever]" isn't really helpful and reformatting a request to move it to the different sections of CHU only takes about five minutes. →javért ^chat 22:59, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• One question. Can I merge my contribution with other nickname which used until creation of SUL-account? NickSt (talk) 09:20, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• • No. It is not (yet) possible to merge accounts yet, even to other accounts on your SUL. -- Sk8er5000 (talk) 00:54, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just to let you guys know (as moving my account wasn't possible) I'm abandoning my old account and starting afresh as stated on my user page. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 10:17, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. A quick query - Soxbot is reporting that the Kilvert account exists, but it is also saying that edits/deleted edits or log edits have been made. I can find the account, but no edits, deleted or otherwise, and only the account creation log. Have I missed something blatantly obvious here?
