Revision as of 20:41, 9 October 2005
The user name users choose for themselves is no longer set in stone. On request, Bureaucrats can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using Special:Renameuser. Note - you must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests are ignored for security reasons.

Requesting a change
- To change your user name, please make your request on this page.
Instructions
Please follow the procedure carefully or your request will not be fulfilled.
- Check the new name you want does not exist (Special:Listusers). Do not create an account under the new name.
- Sign in with the account that you want renamed. (Of course, this is not possible if your account has a lowercase first letter. If you can't log in, then skip this step.)
- Add your request in the section below.
- If you are a sysop, please note this fact with your request so that the necessary changes can be made.
- Once your request is dealt with, all edits from your old account will be reattributed to your new account.
- You should check that the old account has been recreated and blocked to prevent someone else creating the account and impersonating you.
- You will probably want to move and redirect your userpage and talk page after changing.
