Islam.badreldein → Islam.badreldin

• Current name: Islam.badreldein (discuss · contribs · listuser · global account browser · logs · target logs)
• Requested name: Islam.badreldin (discuss · contribs · listuser · global account browser · logs · target logs)
• For bureaucrat use: rename user
• Reason: Hello, I am correcting the spelling of my name in many accounts, including my e-mail, as the (din) spelling seems to be more correct. I'm User:Islam.badreldein and I have a unified account. I am wondering whether a rename here will take effect over all my other WMF wiki accounts. Proof Edit was done at User:Islam.badreldein in this diff. Thanks a lot for your patience and kind support! Islam.badreldein (talk) 20:42, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Done You can change your email in Special:Preferences. Note you can't use it until you confirm it, and enable it. This rename affects only this wiki, however you can re-unify your accounts once they are all renamed.  — Mike.lifeguard | ^talk 01:50, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

I am really sorry but I didn't notice any change! I still can't log-in with islam.badreldin even on wikibooks! Should I first rename my account on all the other wikis before I could use my new account?

Sorry, that's a bug in the software. Actually done  — Mike.lifeguard | ^talk 17:24, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
