 Bureaucrat note: So, if I'm understanding you correctly, you've gotten access to "Alcante" again, so you don't need to be renamed, correct? We can't "delete" your current "A.V.R-Team" account, but you can simply stop using it. EVula // talk // // 22:08, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, that's so, but I maked some pages under new account.. Can it be transfered to old one..? o.O If so, then how..?

 Bureaucrat note: No, I'm sorry, but we can't merge accounts. You can, however, tag the old account with {{FormerAccount}}, so that people can at least see that the edits by A.V.R-Team were done by the same person that edits as Alcante. Another option, I suppose, would be to rename "A.V.R-Team" to something similar to "Alcante" (like "Alcante (alt)") so that it more closely identifies your old account with your new one.

No, because if you make sure you read WP:ORGNAME, you'll see that editors with usernames like both your current and requested ones are usually blocked indefinitely, or until they select a username which is more suitable per WP:USERNAME. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:27, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aha! Found one. User:Ender the Xenocide, which doesn't Exists - Drew Smith What I've done 03:11, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Clerks, please note that there are some serious concerns about this editor's possible falsification of primary source material as well as issues around copyright. (See User talk:SteveBaker#Refdesk Cold Case :, User talk:SteveBaker#Drew.) As well, there was a recent checkuser-confirmed false claim about his account being compromised, which he had used to excuse some disruptive editing and block evasion (See User talk:Drew R. Smith#Indef block). Since all that stuff is just from the last two weeks, it may not be a good idea to go ahead with the username change until those issues are laid to rest. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 18:30, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - I agree with TenOfAllTrades - we need to understand what's going on with this user - and what (if anything) the repercussions should be for his recent (seemingly) disturbing behavior. When these issues have been resolved - and presuming that a long-duration block is not imposed as a result - then I'd have no problem in supporting a "Clean start" user name change. Before that happens, we shouldn't confuse the issue for the people involved in checking the facts by allowing a change of user name. Moreover, I'm pretty sure this user wouldn't want the first notable thing to happen to his shiney new persona to be a long-duration block...which could easily happen as events unfold. SteveBaker (talk) 22:04, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
For what its worth, I have three things to say. One, I had been trying to change my username before the Darwin thing came up. Two, I had been planning to re-register Drew R. Smith so I could tie up the loose ends with it once it did come up. Three, there is nothing currently going on that is less than two weeks old. The darwin thing happened quite some time ago, and people are just now cusing a stink about it. - Drew Smith What I've done 08:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
People are just now '[causing] a stink about it' because your forgery was only discovered a few days ago. Two days ago, you were still making statements standing behind the authenticity of the image and promising us fresh scans of the document ([1], [2]). Yes, people around here get upset when you Photoshop primary source documents to support your mistaken recollections in content disputes. That type of conduct was a gross abuse of the community's trust; it will take a long time for you to make up for it. In the meantime, you shouldn't find it surprising that some editors feel it necessary to review your history, nor that they don't want that history muddled by a name change right now. I advise you to postpone your request for a few weeks or a couple of months to let the air clear and the dust settle. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 14:51, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree this needs to be marked {{notdone}} for now. The user is under a fairly dark cloud, presently provisionally unblocked to participate in a community ban proposal concerning his activities. I'd also prefer the user choose a different username (than the one he suggested 03:11, 23 Aug) if CHU is to be granted. –xenotalk 05:03, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose granting this rename. Renames are not a way to avoid difficulties with ones own actions. Or at least they shouldn't be. We are far too lax about granting troublesome editors new names so they can hide their past. ++Lar: t/c 11:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done, for now. I am not convinced that a rename is currently in the best interest of the projects given the questions being raised about your editing. That does not mean you can never be renamed, just that I think you need to wait until these issues have been resolved. WJBscribe (talk) 11:45, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reason: Reason for requested renaming. I am a new user, with only five edits. I would like this change for readability reasons. I tried following the suggestion in "help" that I simply create a new name if I have few edits, but it will not accept the new name because it is too close to the old user name.

    • Hello, I am an account creator and am able to create a new account for you despite the similarity in name. Simply email me with your preferred Wikipedia email and I will create the account. First, however, please confirm that this name is not promotional in nature (since it apparently contains the name of a company/location). Thanks! (Note: You will also want to note on the user page of the old account that it is a legitimate alternate account for you, even if you plan to never use it again. See here for instructions.)
