NMusic03 → Nikki Martinez[edit]

 Clerk note: Promotional usernames are explicitly disallowed and are blocked on sight. Furthermore, you appear to be conflicted; bureaucrats generally will not rename such an account if the new name is tied to the conflict. -Jéské Couriano (v^_^v) 07:28, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Could you elaborate what you mean? I assume it has something to do with the single unified log-in... -Jéské Couriano (v^_^v) 07:32, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • I originally registered with the target name at Commons + simple, where no warning was given about automatic registration across projects. Over here at en&de Wikipedia one also was notified after registering, leaving me with a new account on en&de-wikiprojects. So I hoped it would be somehow possible to move/rename/merge the new account(s?) on en&de.wiki to the name I already used on Commons; as the Commons-account at some time already registered me across projects without me knowing. (P.S.: In case it is important, as I don't know if the en and de accounts are 'the same' or separate: I also asked for a rename on de.wiki.) Winterwater (talk) 15:49, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

CadenS → Sniper101[edit]

 Not done I don't feel comfortable renaming you while you still have a topic ban. Please reapply after it has expired. bibliomaniac15 02:22, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Bureaucrat note: I've decided that my discretion might not have been the best with this, so I'd like another crat to look over this and affirm or overturn my original decision. bibliomaniac15 22:19, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done You made the correct decision, IMHO. If privacy was an issue, maybe this would have some time sensitivity - but Caden's last name is not in the username. I see no reason for this to be delayed until he is free of any topic bans. Kingturtle (talk) 22:23, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Raiku Lucifer Samiyaza → Raiku[edit]

 Not done The name Raiku (talk · contribs) is already taken. As the account has but a few edits, and the edits were over a year ago, it might be usurpable; to do so, place a request at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations. Kingturtle (talk) 22:25, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, sorry - I forgot usernames were case sensitive and I checked for "mikeymoose"... "MikeyMoose" has no current edits, nor do they have an email associated with the account. How long do I have to be a member before assuming the account? It looks like they had a short career as a one time vandal just over ten months ago and nothing since: | Talk:MikeyMoose --Spankr (talk) 00:58, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Clerk note: I don't believe there is a hard and fast rule as to what makes an account "old enough" (time or edit count) before you can successfully usurp another account. As far as I know it is up to the bureaucrats' discretion. Bureaucrats, please correct me if I am wrong. Useight (talk) 01:03, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Zubeco → Priority Group[edit]

Your userpage should be about you, as a contributor to Wikipedia, and not about your church. Also, your account should be yours, used only by you (a single person), and not by various people "speaking for" your church. If you think your church is notable enough for an article in Wikipedia, please create the article in the main (article) namespace (see Wikipedia:Namespace for details), and not on your userpage. If you'd like to be renamed to something other than the name of your church -- your name, or your favorite nickname, or a clever handle of some kind -- let me know. — Dan | talk 21:40, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Clerk note: Sorry this has been so complicated. First, your page shouldn't be at User:887mhz. That is supposed to be the place where you write something about yourself. If you want to write about a radio station, it should probably be at Nyota Radio Télévision. You'll notice that link is red because the page doesn't exist yet. The material about the radio station should go there. However, the wording has to be neutral, which you have worked on, with edits such as this, and the article must give evidence as to why this particular radio station is notable. If these criteria aren't met, the page could be deleted. Useight (talk) 23:48, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
