Dramnewworld → ClarenceEmsworth[edit]

  • Current name: Dramnewworld (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
  • Requested name: ClarenceEmsworth (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google)
  • For bureaucrat use: rename user
  • Reason: I just created an account and then discovered that my user name was inappropriate as it is my company's name. It seemed best to change immediately to avoid problems. (P.S. The new name is NOT my real name.) Dramnewworld (talk) 16:35, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • SoxBot has evaluated this request, and a problem(s) was found. Requesting user has 1 edit, to this page only. SoxBot VI (talk) 16:36, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Usually I would just say "register a new account", but since there was a potential WP:U violation in the username, a rename is the easiest way to eliminate concerns. EVula // talk // // 17:16, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Requested name: MASQUERAID (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google)
  • For bureaucrat use: rename user
  • Reason: Current username reflects my own name too closely and I'm hesitant to make edits on controversial topics. I have read the WP:COI. I do want my new username in all caps. Jaakovs (talk) 10:29, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • SoxBot has evaluated this request, and renaming appears to be possible. SoxBot VI (talk) 10:30, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Bureaucrat note: The insistence on caps raises my eyebrows. I'm concerned not just about "shouting" (which it seems you're aware of, from your request) but also that you're "masqueraiding" for promotional purposes, like this and other hits I found on Google. I'd welcome other Crat input. --Dweller (talk) 10:48, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Bureaucrat note: I don't see any edits Jaakovs has made that involve issues or discussions at http://masqueraid.livejournal.com/profile . I'd be happy with a simple promise from Jaakovs that MASQUERAID would not be used for commercial or promotional purposes, if indeed Jaakovs runs that livejournal. AS for the all-caps, usernames (such as Brion VIBBER and MONGO) and all-cap signatures (LittleMountain5) are in use, so that's not a red flag for me. Kingturtle (talk) 14:26, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Persuasive. Hope you don't mind, but I'll wait for a third Crat opinion, as it's been suggested in the past that I am a bit quick off the mark when asking for comment. --Dweller (talk) 14:33, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have no connection to that website and I wasn't even aware of its existence. Instead, my suggestion for a new username stemmed from my appeal to the sound of 'masquerade'; since that username is already in use, I took up a punny misspelling of it. I'd happy to take 'masquerade', but I don't know if I'd qualify for that usurpation. On another note, I'd be content with an all-caps version, or a version with a small first letter -- as long as it's not "Masqueraid". Jaakovs (talk) 15:22, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What's the status of this request now? Jaakovs (talk) 21:19, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Bureaucrat note:We can't do usernames with a lowercase first letter, ruling out both "masquerade" and "mASQ<whatever>". "Masquerade" is, as you guessed, not an easy option. Where we're at is that I'm inclined to approve your original request, per Kingturtle, but I'm waiting on a third opinion. Is there a rush? There aren't many active Bureaucrats on English Wikipedia. I'll go see if I can rouse one. --Dweller (talk) 11:36, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Harry "Harri" Dennis → DA01[edit]

  • Requested name: DA01 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google)
  • For bureaucrat use: rename user
  • Reason: Created article in sandbox with title Harry "Harri" Dennis and want to submit for approval, but Harry "Harri" Dennis is showing as user name. Harry Dennis is the person I am writing about. He is not the user. When I started again my user name popped up as the article name. So what do I do? I want my user name DA01 for ongoing use to access my account only, not as an article title. I am new to this and am trying to get it right. I don't think the user name and article name should be the same. Shouldn't the user name and article name be different? I want to keep this name Harry "Harri" Dennis as the article title only, not a user name for my account or subsequent articles. I don't know how to change, switch or move info I wrote in a sandbox to a regular article page. I posted a question on talk, but I think the reason I am not getting a response is because the article is in sandbox. Help. Will the change in username also change for Wikimedia. They are both linked. Thanks. Harri (talk) 06:01, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
