Wikimedia Commons logo Request a Rename
  • We will not rename you to an offensive or confusing username.
  • If you have already merged your accounts, you will have to re-merge them after the rename (the process is identical).
  • If you are usurping a username, we will give active users or those with a registered email time to respond to a request.

Nwjerseyliz → Liz

As you operate both Nwjerseyliz and Liz on enwiki I wasn't sure if you wanted Nwjerseyliz renamed to Liz, or Liz usurped. For now I've just usurped Liz so you can unify it. Please confirm if you want to rename Nwjerseyliz - bear in mind if you do then it will be automatically recreated if you visit enwikibooks in the future while logged in as Nwjerseyliz. In other words, if you plan to continue using Nwjerseyliz on any project, then renaming here is probably a waste of time, especially with SUL finalisation when all users will have to have global accounts QuiteUnusual (discusscontribs) 19:05, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No! I'm sorry for the confusion. Nwjerseyliz was an account I created in 2007 and I mistakenly "unified" it across all wikis. Then, I was able to change my new account to Liz on en.wiki, commons and meta. So, Liz is what I use on the wikis I'm most active. But to make this request, I had to log into the old Nwjerseyliz account. I'm not typically using it. I plan on using Liz. Thanks so much! Liz (discusscontribs) 22:22, 12 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Request for usurping Blueknight

Request to usurp user:Blueknight on en.wikibooks.org, with the purpose/reason to 1) merge it to Blueknight (SUL, with home wiki nl.wikipedia.org) and 2) becoming active in future at en.wikibook.org. Thanks in advance, Hxq (discusscontribs) 12:00, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide a link to an edit you have made on a project where you own the Blueknight account stating that you wish the usurp the account here. I need this to confirm you are in fact the owner of the Blueknight SUL. Thanks. QuiteUnusual (discusscontribs) 13:31, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
See confirmation of request (hidden/underwater) + thanks in advance, Hxq (discusscontribs) 14:20, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The account has been usurped. Do you want Hxq renamed to Blueknight or will you discard that account? QuiteUnusual (discusscontribs) 14:49, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Great. I'll use Hxq to usurp Blueknight at three other wiki's and will not use it here anymore. Have a good day, Blueknight (discusscontribs) 07:15, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
