Revision as of 00:33, August 12, 2013
The wiki software allows bureaucrats to change any user account to a new name, as long as it's not already in-use by someone else.
All edits made by the user will be changed in the edit history to reflect the change. However, this feature has been somewhat abused in the past, so there are some limits:
|
Previous renames are archived: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
Instructions
- Create a new subsection at the bottom of the page using this syntax:
=== CurrentName to NewName ===
- Below this, use {{rename user}} and put both your current and desired names (both case-sensitive), using this format:
{{rename user|CurrentName|NewName}}
- Leave a comment as to why you want the change after the template and then save the page.
- Bureaucrats will check this page regularly and if accepted can use the "Rename" link on the top-right corner of each section to directly change the username and move all userspace pages.
- The bureaucrat will say whether the name change is accepted or rejected in each section, and if rejected, why (such as already being given a name change over the preceding 12 months).
Requests
Kibago to Hitokage
I wanted a name change to "Charmander" a couple months ago, but it didn't work out because that name is already in use. "Kibago" was kind of a quickfix solution, but it's rather dumb. People will think me a weirdo for being named Kibago when I have a charmander avatar, rather than naturally coming to the conclusion that I am a weirdo by listening to what I say. That is unacceptable. -

MegaDigga3 to Gonzales Kart Inc.
I have lost intrest in Megaleg and Diggaleg because my SMG2 game is busted. I love Yoshis (who called Mario Gonzales anyway), Mario Kart, and Inc. because i have wanted my own business for a while. Me, GK Inc.!
(talk! · edits!) {{{1}}}
King Pikante to KP
This username is shorter and sounds better.
KP (talk ยท edits)
SuperMario150 to Ace Shadow
Template:Renameuser This is a much more original, and simply better name, honestly. SuperMario150 (talk) 18:54, 22 June 2013 (EDT)
Mr.Vruet to Vruet
Simple. I dropped use the prefix "Mr." on irc and Steam a really long time ago and believe my user page should reflect that. Mr.Vruet info|talk|chat
FireWario to Fire Wario
All I want is a space between "Fire" and "Wario". It's as simple as that. FireWario 18:18, 25 June 2013
Yoshi123 to Timmy
I prefer having Timmy since it's my IRL name and forum name, and it's a more simple name. Yoshi123 (talk) 19:38, 5 July 2013 (EDT)
Mariotime11 to Driftmaster130
I use this handle on every other site I'm on and am better known by it, so I would like to keep things consistent. Mariotime11 (talk)
KrazyKoopalings to Madikoopa
I'd rather go by this username because it's more original than naming it after already-existing characters in the Marioverse, and because I am currently using this as my forum name. KrazyKoopalings (talk)
Firetoad to SuperFlameGuy
I thought Firetoad was just plain boring. So I wanted to change my username to something else. That's it. Firetoad (talk) 17:51, 24 July 2013 (EDT)
Transcript to RickTommy
Template:Renameuser This is my most common online name now. Plus, my current username serves an outdated purpose. Transcript (talk) 01:14, 25 July 2013 (EDT)
Bowser45 to Shadow
It's cooler and a better name in my opinion. Bowser45 (talk)
Bowser45 to Shadowshy
It's cooler and a better name in my opinion (I don't think this one is taken). Bowser45 (talk)
Fawfulfan64 to Fawfulthegreat64
I may as well. -- 21:27, 31 July 2013 (EDT)
