Julian changed EVula's original post above and that is why my reply to her now makes no sense. He didn't make a note of that, which is strange.

Caden, in answer to your question "What's the problem", because the username you want is already taken, we need to ask that user if they are okay with you taking over the name. If we don't hear back from the user within a week, or if the user says it is ok, then we can make the change. Kingturtle (talk) 11:38, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

With the advent of SUL, individuals can have the same username across projects.

No, I am afraid the name isn't available regardkess of whether the German Wikipedia account holder responds - they have created a "global account", which means that they have reserved the name on across all Wikimedia Projects.

Hello, firstly just want to say that i am not using this wiki page to promote any business, but thought quite interested to put some information regarding the software up as i have done some research into this interesting software. secondly, why i created this page, it is because i saw a page created by tableau_software(username), and the user is using TABLEAU_SOFTWARE for the page regarding TABLEAU products, why would they be allowed and I am not when i am not even from the organisation.
