[edit] Bkmlb

minibaseball.png Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 18:20, 9 October 2005 (UTC) Only the conributions if possible

Okay, what username would you like to change it to? -- Tom 19:41, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Can I just have the contributions from bkmlb and Bkmlb. transfered to Bkmlb? I don't care deeply but it would be nice.--minibaseball.png Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 19:44, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Please see step number 1 above. Since you already created the account for Bkmlb, I'd have to delete the Bkmlb account in the database in order to move bkmlb there. I can't make any promises, but we could try it if you want. -- Tom 19:56, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Okay, try that.--minibaseball.png Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 20:42, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Done. -- Tom 21:23, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks!!--minibaseball.png Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 22:09, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mibluvr13

I'd like my contributions moved from mibluvr13 to Mibluvr13. I'm okay with deleting my current account to do this. -- Mibluvr13 20:41, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Okay, I'll be deleting Mibluvr13 and moving mibluvr13 there now. Hang on to your hat. -- Tom 20:42, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Bwa ha ha ha! I even managed to keep the edits you've made as Mibluvr13. Okay, now, just for consistency's sake, I'm going to block User:mibluvr13 so no one will ever be able to register with that name. (I know they can't now with the lowercase thing, but maybe that will change someday. Who knows?) Thanks for being the test case. -- Tom 21:14, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks! I've even got my watchlist back. W00tness! -- Mibluvr13 21:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Very good. And I can't block User:mibluvr13. No one will be able to register for that name for the same reason I can't block it. Works well enough, I suppose. Now don't forget the rest of the steps. -- Tom 21:20, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] GWR 2004

I made a new account before I learned about this little project. My original username was gwr2004. Any possible way to get my contributions from that account to GWR 2004? I don't care if you have to delete this account or not. —GWR_Wikisig.gifGWR 2004 TalkContribs 01:09, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks! Computerdude33

[edit] racerx_is_alive

Capitalization makes me sad. Well, at least capitalizing Racerx_is_Alive makes me sad. But I see there is no other option, so why not make me Racerx_is_Alive. Thanks.

"racerx_is_alive" --> "Racerx_is_Alive". Done. -- Tom 02:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks. Maybe in MediaWiki 1.7.2 we will be able to have lowercase names again... :) --Racerx_is_alive 15:15, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Trogga

I just made a new account, Sam Goldfish. Can I keep it? Oh, and sorry for not logging in as Trogga.

Since it's possible for you to log in as Trogga, could you please so that I can confirm? Thanks. -- Tom 02:22, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
I don't understand. (trogga)
Can anybody answer? Please? (trogga)
Since it is possible for you to log in as User:Trogga, I wanted confirmation that it was actually you that made the request. Was it you? Do you still want to do it? -- Tom 20:34, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
It was me, and yes, I still want my name changed. (trogga)
"Trogga" --> "Sam Goldfish". Done. And User:Trogga has been blocked so no one can steal your old username. -- Tom 01:19, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks. emosmile.gif --Sam Goldfish 17:36, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] thatkidsam

Yeah, I'm going to get around to setting up a page similar to this over there later on. -- Tom 02:23, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Can't log in because the first letter in daunrealist is lowercase! Can somebody please change it to Daunrealist?

"daunrealist" --> "Daunrealist". Done. -- Tom 02:19, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks, Tom. You're crazy. In a good way. --daunrealist 19:12, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

"phlip" --> "Phlip". Done. -- Tom 05:49, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] ackicantthinkofaname

My old username was ackicantthinkofaname, with the displayed name of breadtangle, however, I would now like to switch to the new username of breadtangle. However, because of my old displayed name this isn't possible, and I can't log in to fix it because of the lowercase first letter. Could ackicantthinkofaname be changed to breadtangle, or if not possible, can you remove the displayed name?

I need you to answer two and only two questions:
  1. What was your old username? (This would be what you used to type in the "Username" field on the Special:Userlogin page.)
  2. What do you want your new username to be? (This can not have a lowercase first letter.)
Thanks. -- Tom 21:41, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
ackicantthinkofaname
Breadtangle
"Breadtangle" is already taken. Any other ideas? -- Tom 01:15, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
I think it's taken only because of my old display name, which was indeed breadtangle.
Nope, it's another different and unique user. I checked. -- Tom 01:39, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
Oh, and if you'd like to check for yourself, please see this search of Special:Listusers. -- Tom 01:41, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
Cwapface. Umm...fine, then can you just capitalize ackicantthinkofaname?
"ackicantthinkofaname" --> "Ackicantthinkofaname". Done. -- Tom 20:09, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] skippyman2099

I would like to become "Skippyman2099"; thanks.

"skippyman2099" --> "Skippyman2099". Done. -- Tom 03:57, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

I would like to become "Invisible Robot Fish"; thanks... and 2 points for people that know what my username refers to... and a million pounds of candy. (without running a search)

[edit] furrykef

I know he hasn't been around for a while, but he is a Sysop. And if he tries to come around and edit anything in the future, he's gonna find his username's not working very well. Is the sysopness gonna be a problem at all, and are you gonna preemptivly capitalize his name, or wait until/if he comes around looking to log in? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 06:59, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

If you'd like to leave him a message about it, I suggest you use his Wikipedia user talk page, since (as you also noted) he isn't around here much. -- Tom 20:43, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
Go ahead. - Kef (who can't log in 'cause of the switch - see my Wikipedia talk page for verification)
"furrykef" --> "Furrykef". Done. -- Tom 21:20, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

"woddfellow2" --> "Winslow Oddfellow II". Done. -- Tom 00:03, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] single deuce

I know he may never come back again, but I think that we should at least change his username if he tries to come back and can't log in. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 20:24, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Please refrain from making requests for other users. If anyone tries to log in and cannot, they will receive the MediaWiki:Noname notice, which directs them to this page. Thanks. -- Tom 22:05, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

"Lappy 486" --> "Salty". Done. And you probably changed your sig preferences to display Salty instead of Lappy 486. -- Tom 05:47, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Aerosmth Rules

When I made this account, I accidentally spelled Aerosmith as Aerosmth. Can I have it "Aerosmith Rules" instead of "Aerosmth Rules"? This will make it easier for people to reffer to me incase they didn't notice the missing "i". Thanks for your time. Aerosmth rules 01:50, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

Emtarkanderundersgunderson -> Embrodak, s'il vous plait. Thanks for offering. I would rather not cause confusion or screw up the LH column in the forums!

Asked and answered. See HRWiki talk:FAQ#Can I delete myself from H*R Wiki?. -- Tom 23:05, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

I couldn't think of anything else...- Traveling Ham
If you aren't tied to that one for any reason, would you mind trying to think of something else? Also, what are your intentions for this account? Do you intend to never use it again, or do you plan on continue contributing with it? -- Tom 18:51, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

And I just realized you just had your name changed once already, less than two weeks ago. No, you can't change it again. -- Tom 21:37, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

well, how about telling me as to WHY IT ISN'T VALID. vulgar? profane? obscene? too long? needs more pudding? you just hate me? stinkoman the god said so? this is all a big ripoff to destroy my entire social lead in life? *whew* - AIK 74

It isn't valid because the first letter is lowercase. Please read the instructions at the top of the page for more information. But it doesn't matter, because as I said, I'm not going to change your name again. -- Tom 22:04, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

well, then, can i get a second account if i want said specified user name? and made it according to the user name making rules? - AIK 74

Well, Rainer had a huge legacy. He was almost a bureaucrat at the fanstuff wiki. But he changed his username to Rob. That said, people thinking of him as Tampo doesn't seem like a valid reason. — Seriously (Talk) 22:35, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Almost a bureaucrat? There's no such thing. Seriously, these matters are decided on a case by case basis. You do not have the standing here to question my decision in this way. As such, please mind your own business. -- Tom 22:41, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Count X --> «Âpðçã£ýpX» or Âpðçã£ýpX

I wouldn't prefer the latter, but it's the (PEOPLE WHO CHANGE NAMES)'s decision. Count X Talk Email

I would call this a very complicaded and hard to read and pronounce name. --Dacheatbot · Communicate 22:05, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
I think it would be pronounced "Ahp-thsa-pound-ipcks", but I'm not quite sure how ã is supposed to be pronounced (it's a Portuguese letter with no equivalent phoneme in English), and the "th" of ð is supposed to be the voiced th, like in "them", which is hard to pronounce when followed by the "s" of ç. And no, I don't think this name change is going to happen – we prefer names that you can actually read, none of this neo-1337 buisness. If you ask for "ApocalypX" you have a better chance – I'm not going to say it will, as it's the admin's decision, but it's certainly more likely than your gibberish. How do you propose to type that into Special:Userlogin, anyway? phlip TC 04:17, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
Most people who use a standard English-language keyboard (which includes the vast majority of HRWiki users) prefer that other users' names be easy to read and, especially, easy to type. Therefore, the best names use only letters (and, occasionally, numbers and symbols) from the standard ASCII character set. Non-Latin or Unicode-only characters are really frowned upon, and even characters in the extended Latin 1 character set can be a hassle. (We overlook it in cases like Heimstern Läufer because (1) his name actually means something and (2) it would be grammatically incorrect otherwise.) All that to say, sorry, we're not gonna change your name to that mess. — It's dot com 04:52, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

I've wanted a new name for a while. I found one. The problem with most is mainly y icons, and everything, especially the TG thing in my sig. Nice thing about this is that that doesn't have to be changed. I want The Goblin! The Goblin!! 16:57, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Done. — It's dot com 16:59, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dagron

Unless there's a rule against all caps usernames, I think I'd like my user name to match what Strong Mad carves (DAGRON). Thanks! Dagron 20:03, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Done. When I first saw the request, I was afraid you were changing your name to something else altogether. I'm glad to see you were just tweaking it. — It's dot com 20:55, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sam the Man

Love baseball. I think this is a good name. User talk:Sam the Man Sam the Man 23:21, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Why would you want to change your name? Everyone knows you as Sam the Man — it'll be confusing! Trey56 03:41, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Yes, you've established yourself rather heavily here under your current name, and as such I am rather disinclined to change it. Perhaps you could shed some light on why you would make this request. — It's dot com 03:49, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Um, guys, everyone knew The Goblin as Techgeekmbg (as I still do) and yet you changed his name without this much investigation. Why are you picking on Sam? --Mario2.PNG Super Martyo boing! 02:03, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
I don't like it that techie got changed... i think that this whole name change thing is dumb unless it's a minor spelling or capitalization fix, or a switch for a relatively new user... but for an established user like techie or sam, i wouldn't think it a good idea at all. (Ya hear that sam? i'm saying that you're well known round these parts) — Defender1031✡Talk 02:05, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
I was going to say that Sam has also been here longer, but then I checked the logs, and Sam's only a month older, account wise, than Techgeek (March 7 to April 25, respectively). So now my argument's all shot to whatsit. I guess Sam just established himself earlier than Techgeek. --DorianGray 05:18, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
The biggest (but certainly not only) difference between the two cases is that Techgeek demonstrated a long time ago that he wanted a new name, and over time his feelings on the matter remained the same. Sam, on the other hand, seems to be making the request on a whim (or maybe not, but he hasn't given us much to go on here). I'm not completely against making the change for him, but I think it would be fair for him to give us a pretty good reason to even consider it. — It's dot com 05:59, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Here's some reasons:
  • I love baseball, and my email is "strikeoutsam@——".
  • I want to make a fresh new start ever since I got blocked.
  • Meh, it's a good name.
That's some reasons. User talk:Sam the Man Sam the Man 22:02, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
After further reflection, I'm not going to change your name. Sorry. You've established yourself under the name you have, and that's the name you need to keep. — It's dot com 22:07, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
But everyone knows me as Sam the Man, the guy who got blocked. I want to be Strikeout Sam, please!? User talk:Sam the Man Sam the Man 22:08, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Honestly, if you hadn't brought up the fact that you had ever been blocked, I wouldn't have remembered it. Nobody really dwells on that. (And, for what it's worth, it's not like changing your name erases those records.) — It's dot com 22:13, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Strikeout Sam the Man, or whoever you are, I think you have made some pretty good points for changing your name (besides the bit about a "fresh start" which I don't really follow). You use another name elsewhere and its the name you prefer. And you've been sitting on it for three months, so if the change is made I don't really see you changing your mind and wishing you hadn't gone through with it. To anyone trying to dissuade him, I'd suggest that a rename is probably preferable to him registering for a new account and abandoning his history completely (which I hope it doesn't come to). Let the guy have his new name. OptimisticFool 23:04, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Just to clarify, you guys are free to keep talking, but this thread actually ended four posts ago. — It's dot com 23:18, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Here's a reason your argument on "Oh, I like this name better now than I did when I joined." I, admittedly, changed my username for that reason, but I 1) was not well known at the time. 2) used the name I changed to in my signatures ever since I got one. You have not expressed either of those. Furthermore, if I were to suddenly say "Oh, my new online alias is s0merand0mdude, change it to that please," I would get shot down in similar fashion. Just say that outside the wiki, you are known as StrikeoutSam. Problem solved. --Mario2.PNG Super Martyo boing! 23:25, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] School of Rock

My name is Jack Black but you can change my name to Dewey Finn because you probably know me best as Dewey Finn from the movie School of Rock.

[edit] Has Matt?

I never really liked my name; the question mark just seems to get in the way of things. I also kinda figured I needed an image overhaul. (I can't have the young users thinking I'm old!) I've already changed my signature, since I know this request will be accepted. But if anyone has suggestions for an even more kick-awesome username, let me know. — Has Matt?

[edit] Kevin G. Dannerson

I decided I liked my 92nd day of the leap year prank so much i wanted to change my name to it entirely. Just like a super bowl commercial turns into a regular commercial. Besides, Kevin G. Dannerson is a pretty lame name. And this one actually has some meaning and not just words that were randomly thrown together in it. Kevin G. Dannerson 19:30, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

and did i forget to mention that i wanted a username that didn't have my brother's name in it? Kevin G. Dannerson 19:47, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Lux Acerbus

This may just be me being paranoid, but somebody phished one of my accounts on another website recently, so if they got access to my email they might be able to figure out how to log in as me here. Anyway, after that I'd just like to move away from using "Lux Acerbus" for anything in case they do recognize this as my account. That and it'll help keep my username consistent with my accounts for everything else. ~That Guy Over There (User talk:That Guy Over There) 00:10, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Hmm. "That Guy Over There" is kind of a nondescript name. You really use it for all your online accounts? — It's dot com 14:52, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Well, some. Actually, I wrote that when I was wanting it to be changed to "Mr. Upstage." That's just the humor in it, that it's nondescript. Anyway, I don't think the fact that it's nondescript makes it any less good for identifying me. It is, after all, a username and nobody else has that username. ~That Guy Over There (User talk:That Guy Over There) 14:59, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

I changed because I don't really like Sylar. Raiku 04:30, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

I think Sylar is a great username (being the Heroes fan that I am). When I saw that's what you picked after being "Gavino" I personally celebrated the change. Quick, change your mind! =] OptimisticFool 04:35, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
Oh, and now I just read what you said here .. yeah, umm.. I think you're going to get denied anyway. That's not really up to me, but I'd suggest you get used to the idea that the change may not happen. OptimisticFool 04:38, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

To be honest, I like "Not Dennis" better. I look at it as a "Not X" and "Dennis" combination, not a Thy Dungeonman reference. But then again, I'm not that big of a Homestar Runner Universe game-player. More on that later. I'd keep it. --70.253.165.204 00:56, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm going to do this, but let's be clear about something: I'm doing it because changing your name makes it easier for us to keep track of you, not because we're rewarding either your indecision or the fact that you keep pestering us. — It's dot com 05:03, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

I like the idea of TNDY because its kind of like tandy, only sounds more like TMBG, my favorite band. OpenSourceGreg 10:46, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
I had intended for you to use this process to officially request that I change your name to Open Source Greg (which I would be completely fine with), but instead you asked for a different name—and then another different name. In fact, the request above represents something like your fifth or sixth username choice overall. I'm extremely hesitant to change your name at all now, since you can't seem to make up your mind. — It's dot com 15:54, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Ok, I'm fine with Open Source Greg. I just don't want it to be Jagger88 anymore, it's too normal...
