SUL for User:Anshul

Hey folks! It's been a little more than 2 weeks since I made the request. All the other wikis have cleared the way for my SUL. Wikiversity is the only thing standing between me and my SUL. Any response will be highly appreciated. Thanks! --120.138.117.230 13:30, 21 July 2010 (UTC) (Anshul)[reply]

Change of username from Osteomyoamare to Benjamin

edit
  • Current username: Osteomyoamare
  • Requested username: Benjamin
  • Reason: I was a fool to make a username that was so hard to remember, leads to problems with logging in.

Osteomyoamare 10:53, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You have unified login for Osteomyoamare. Renaming it will cause the local user to be detached from the global one. Do you want this? (Probably not). Benjamin is already registered on some other projects [1], but not yet as a unified login. However, you would then need to go through usurption requests (which probably wouldn't succeed) to create a unified login across the projects for Benjamin. So, I would suggest perhaps choosing a new username which isn't yet used on other projects, so you can get a unified login. You can search for new usernames here: [2]. So, options are:
  1. I can rename the local WV account to Benjamin, but it could then be problematic to have a unified acount
  2. Suggest a new username which isn't used elsewhere, then I can change your WV account to this new name, and then you can create a unified account.
Note that you don't need to have a unified account - it is optional. You could just be happy to be Benjamin here on Wikiversity. Its just that there is other activity [3] on your current user name on other WMF wiki projects which you may wish to keep together under one user name. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 00:59, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
James, Thanks very much for your interest and guidance. A unified account does sound ideal. If it were at all possible could I use =Benjamin=? It seems to be an unused wikimedia username. Thanks again, --Osteomyoamare 01:11, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Y Done: User:=Benjamin=. You can now also claim this as a unified login - via Special:MergeAccount. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 06:49, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Change username from "EGM6321,F10.TEAM1.WILKS" to "EGM6321.F10.TEAM1.WILKS"

edit
  • Current username: EGM6321,F10.TEAM1.WILKS
  • Requested username: EGM6321.F10.TEAM1.WILKS
  • Reason: I miss typed and used a comma instead of a period. Thanks.
  •  Y Done. Warning: User EGM6321,F10.TEAM1.WILKS was already migrated to the unified login system. Renaming it caused the local user to be detached from the global one. This probably won't matter to you if you are just editing Wikiversity (and not the sister projects). -- Jtneill - Talk - c 03:58, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Change username from "Heldergeovane" to "Helder.wiki"

edit
  • Current username: Heldergeovane
  • Requested username: Helder.wiki
  • Reason: Personal preference. PS: I'm the onwer of the global account with the new name, as pointed out here. Helder 18:42, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Y Done The user "Heldergeovane" has been renamed to "Helder.wiki". Special:Log/renameuser. Warnings:

  • User Heldergeovane has been migrated to the unified login system. Renaming it caused the local user to be detached from the global one.
  • User Helder.wiki is reserved for a global account.

-- Jtneill - Talk - c 23:04, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Could you also delete these redirects ([4], [5], [6]), and this subpage please? Helder 10:18, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
Deleting the talk page redirect makes it difficult for people to determine that the account has been renamed in the past, however. I have to say that it's interesting that Heldergeovane is "Whiteknight" in Portuguese, at least according to Google Translate. Adrignola 14:05, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't deleted the old user page and the old user talk page redirects pages pending more discussion or proposal for deletion (see Wikiversity:Requests for Deletion. I have deleted the first two user subpages and the the third no longer exists. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 03:37, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The redirects should be deleted (this was made in other wikis too, when the option to not create the redirect when moving the pages wasn't used), since the global account was renamed and the old username won't be used at all. The renaming is already in the log if that information is ever needed. Helder 01:34, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Dr.salticid → Dr.Salticid

edit

Copied from [10] I have a very minor username change request. I convinced a friend of mine who is a curator at a museum to create a Wikiversity account and try editing an article. He created the account User:Dr.salticid earlier today, but would like it changed to User:Dr.Salticid (with a capital S). Unfortunately, he couldn't just create a new account with the different capitalization because MediaWiki complained that it was too similar to the existing account. I'm making the request on his behalf since he is a total newbie and already feels a bit put off by the difficult user interface of MediaWiki. I'm afraid making him jump through more hoops will leave him with a totally bad experience. I know this is unorthodoxed, but considering the circumstances and the very minor nature of the change, I hope it is acceptable. Thanks for your help! Kaldari 20:41, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming கலை to Kalaiarasy

edit

Mainly, I'm a Tamil wiki contributor and I created the account with a username in Tamil. I had problem in using the Soxred tool 'cos of this Tamil name. Besides, I felt that it would be nice to have my username in English (that everyone can read), and thus asked for renaming in ta.wiki. My username was then changed from my old username கலை to my new username Kalaiarasy (that is my first name) in ta.wiki.
Even after the renaming, I faced a few problems and have been advised to change the name in all wikis which I'm linked to. So, I made a request in Wikimedia, Meta-wiki at Steward requests page. They helped me changing my name in wikis which don't have the local bureaucrats and asked me get the renaming locally in wikis which have the local bureaucrats. So, I'm making the requests in those wikis and the local bureaucrats complete the renaming procedure. Can you please do my renaming in en.wikiversity too?.

Mysha

edit

Hi, I have SUL as Mysha. As one of the pages keeps telling me my SUL is incomplete, I would like to resolve the last few conflicts. One is the user:Mysha on Wikiversity. The current user has slightly over 70 edits, all done on 5 dates in July - September 2007, and links the user page to an URL that no longer seems to exist. Is there a way to resolve this? (I'm as yet only asking whether there is a way; apparently you're still discussing this issue, so I'd rather know what's going to happen before plastering usurpation messages all over.) 212.203.0.54

So, any progress on the issue? 212.203.0.54

Hi Mysha, Looks like that user doesn't have email enabled, but could you at least post to the user's talk page to notify of your SUL request for usurping the local account. Then if there is no reply after a few weeks we can consider the usurption request. If you don't get prompt reply here, then you can ping my talk page. Also, we need to confirm your status as Mysha e.g., by posting on another wiki logged in as Mysha that these are your requests and providing a link to that from here. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 00:00, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Usurpation of User:Doug

edit
  • Current name:User:BewareofDoug
  • Target name: User:Doug
  • Reason: SUL; analysis of global account: [12] (many other projects are merged but I have made no contributions to them).
  • Home wiki: enwiki where I'm an admin
  • Additional information: The target has edits but the last edit is in mid-2006, the same user is User:Reswik whose account has is also inactive, the last edits by Reswik on this and enwiki both being in mid-2007. I have e-mailed the user on both Wikiversity and enwiki and posted to his talk page on enwiki. I wondered, if the target account does not respond, can he be renamed to User:Doug (old) or User:Doug (usurped) or something like that as is done on other projects?
  • Verification of global ID: [13]

Thanks.--BewareofDoug 18:08, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • BTW, I have pending usurp requests on all of the projects that I don't have merged yet: Wikiversity, Wikibooks (also Reswik), wikiquote, ja.wikipedia, ko.wikipedia, and es.wikipedia; excepting it.wikipedia as there is an active User:Doug there who is apparently unconnected to Reswik (doesn't speak English fluently and makes no interwiki links on his user page).--BewareofDoug 18:13, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Update, Wikibooks renamed User:Doug" to "User:Doug (usurped)" based on inactivity; I mention this in particular because it is the same user (m:User:Reswik) as User:Doug on this project.--BewareofDoug 02:25, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  Comment - There is reluctance to usurp accounts that have had significant edits. See: "I didn't do yours because the account had edits." Also, there seems to be some general confusion about the use of {{Usurpation requested}} which literally states "...because you have not used it to edit..." See the discussion thread that I opened at Wikiversity_talk:Changing_username#Usurpation to request community input on this process. Also, see the change that I made to the template to try to clarify the intent. I would hesitate to usurp an account with contribs unless there is some indication that Doug switched to using the Reswik account, for example. Did you email both User:Doug and User:Reswik? --mikeu talk 16:07, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I have e-mailed User:Doug on this Project and User:Reswik on both this and enwiki and I've posted messages on enwiki as well for Reswik (See w:User talk:Reswik#Trying to reach you); all done last December; I did not bother to post a message on User talk:Reswik on this project. As I noted above, User:Reswik has been inactive as well since mid-2007 on both this Project and enwiki, and does not appear to be active anywhere else (Last edit by Reswik anywhere was August 2007 on here[14]). None of Doug's edits on this project were in the mainspace, for what it's worth.--BewareofDoug 21:17, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I should have reported that I checked the log for Jakec. Jakec was "created automatically" 18:12, 11 February 2014, after the user filed this request, when this user logged into the SUL elsewhere and looked at Wikiversity. (Special:Log/Jakec)
  • When this request was filed, the SUL account did not exist as such, according to CentralAuth.
The SUL account was "registered 18:12," 11 February 2014.[20] That is an attachment date, and a whole series of wikis show that attachment date, including Wikiversity.
Only SUL Jakec could have created that log entry, and from the other evidence shown, Jakec is King jakob c 2. So please go ahead, and there is no need for a Jakec (usurped) account. This is the same user. --Abd (discuss • contribs) 00:19, 26 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Juandev (discuss • contribs) 11:47, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • While filed as a rename, this is technically a usurpation, because Juandev has long existed and edited. I will move it to that section; however, it is clear that Juandev = Juan de Vojnikov. If Juan de Vojnikov usurps Juandev, the custodian rights will travel with it. There are few edits for Juandev, and I understand that the MediaWiki extension allowing account merge is not enabled. Hence:
  • Usurpation recommended. --Abd (discuss • contribs) 15:11, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Change name "PatrickE" to "Patrick D"

edit

I created an account a few days ago, attempting to use my previous Conservapedia moniker "PatrickD". That name was taken, and I foolishly just chose the next name, "PatrickE". On further reflection, "Patrick D", with a space, would be a better choice. The listusers function heare at WV shows that it is available, though it also shows that "PatrickD" would have been available, so I don't really know. The conflict involved the big global wikimedia registry, and someone in Germany. I know very little about how the global registry works, so I don't know whether "Patrick D" would be available. But the "SUL search util" seems to be saying it's available here. PatrickE 05:21, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Mankbadi, if you wanted to be anonymous, this won't quite accomplish it. That account was old and this request actually calls attention to and would link to the new accounts. You'd be better off starting a new account with a new name, not one of those above. While the account could be hidden, the edits themselves, where you placed your user name, will still be found on the wiki, they can't be removed without a lot of difficulty. If you want your user page deleted, just edit it as Mankbadi, blank it, and copy
{{delete|user page requested by user ~~~~}}
onto it. Given that the Mankbadi account did not have any problems, nobody will mind if you start up a new account, it's not worth the trouble of telling us! --Abd 23:32, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
