I recommend you leave a note on the talk page of Kalki and request the change there

- Current name: RolandDeschain (talk • contribs)

[edit] Wolfie001 → Mr.Morose
- Current name: Wolfie001 (talk • contribs)
- Requested name: Mr.Morose (change username)
- Reason: "Mr.Morose" is my universal username with its own set password which I can remember. Recently, I couldn't log into Wikipedia because I forgot my old username and password which I created a year or two before -- when I was young and couldn't decide on an alias. I plan to be active in creating new articles as soon as my schoolwork calms down and I can't do that using IP and I don't want a new account because I would like credit for my old edits and articles.

- Reason: Would like to use the same username on main Wiki as I use on Wookieepedia, where I am more active.

Not done You have only one edit with that account, to post this request. You may simply create the new account with the capitalization and the spaces that you want, and start editing from it. If you wish, you may also turn the user page and talk page of the present account into redirects to the relevant pages of your new account, so as to establish that they are both controlled by the same person — but preferably, please opt for only one of them to edit from. Thank you. Redux 11:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Qzzz → っ (review previous change)
- Current name: Qzzz (talk • contribs)
- Requested name: っ (change username)
There is no Changing Username Review, so I'm bringing this up on this page.
This user was forced to change their username due to a misguided en.wikipedia policy that previously stated that non-latin usernames are not permitted. However, this is the same user across many wikimedia projects:
m:Requests_for_permissions#User:っ
Note that this username is perfectly correct on this user's home wiki (ja.wikipedia).
Consensus on meta between several wiki communites has it that this forced name change should not happen. Bureaucrats and stewards on other wikis have stated that they are loath to accept it. When Single User Login is introduced, the SUL system and policy will -among many things, as part of its normal function- enforce reinstatement of this username on en.wikipedia in software. We are in the process of revising en.wikipedia policy to bring it in line.
In the mean time, the old username should be reinstated as quickly as possible, if only because otherwise the SUL-changeover will make a change harder at a later date. (IIRC it would create a new account っ, but leave all edits attributed to Qzzz, if that account still existed at that time).
I think that we should not accept any further requests based on the now hopefully deprecated non-latin name policy, as per the request by Aphaia to all wiki-communities on meta.
See also: discussion at Wikipedia talk:Username#Non-latin characters and Unified Login
If nescessary, please also contact this user. In fact, that would probably be a good idea. :-)
Feel free to contact me for more information, if available.

{{not done}} (note: template "nowikied" to allow bot to properly archive) I do oppose the name change, and have stated it in the discussion page listed above. We don't have a set policy in place to change usernames to non-Latin scripts at the moment. The debate is ongoing, not deprecated, and till them, I'd prefer to keep this in abeyance.

- sounds like you just want to create a new user id, unless I'm missing something. Then use that one for all future activities, let the current one waste away into the past. Tim Sailor 20:19, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
- I'd do that, but I'd like that username not to figure at all in Wikipedia, since it is quite private to me and I made a mistake creating it in the first place. Tabjai 21:33, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
- Even if we do rename you, it would be possible for a determined user to track down your old username. In addition, it is not possible to remove your edits to the database. I would recommend following Tim Sailor's suggestion. Warofdreams talk 01:08, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hashikure → 端くれの錬金術師
- Current name: Hashikure (talk • contribs)
- Requested name: 端くれの錬金術師 (change username)
- Reason: Previously, I was forced to change my username from "端くれの錬金術師" to "Hashikure" because of using non-Latin characters. "端くれの錬金術師" is perfectly correct in Japanese. Per discussions on project_talk:Username and policy amendment, I request re-changing my username. -- hashikure 16:41, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
- Note: On all projects, I also changed my username to "Hashikure" , but I'll request re-changing username on these projects if this request is aprroved. -- hashikure 16:41, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
- Clerk note: as a FYI, having a username changed from X to Y here doesn't mean you can be 100% sure it will be changed on other projects. Wikipedia doesn't run on precedent, and least of all cross-wiki matters. Not saying it won't, but I'd reccomend you not use the reason "per enwiki precedent".
