MarioWiki:Changing username/Archive 7
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).

Hikari to ThatPeskyKoopaling
Hikari (talk) | ThatPeskyKoopaling (talk) |
---|---|
Approved |
I've finally made up my mind. Hikari's not Mario themed, and Lady Timpani's an actual article (sort of), and I love the Koopalings. And I know it's my last name change this year, but I'm sure I'm sticking with this one. ThatPeskyKoopaling 04:26, 8 July 2012 (EDT)
- Done. If you do get tired of this name, you can change it after January 8, 2013. - Walkazo 19:36, 8 July 2012 (EDT)

It's been what, a few months, since I joined and I'm quitting the whole LMS09 mishap where I was the "Ninth LMS, so make your username that"(MG2012 Quote) so MG2012 won't bother me!!!!!!

"*Gemeas*" is very personal to put in a User name. Super Candy sounds good to us and it seems the name of an item of Mario, the family of the Super Mushroom + the candies Mario Party 8. (it's cute, admit) Twins Deia & Lica 21:24, 17 July 2012 (EDT)

Lately, I've been using 'Bαjα' more than anything else. If I can't use special characters, could I try a different username? Either way, this is my first and only desired username change. Baja (talk)
- Don't use fancy characters: it's not worth the hassle (remember, other users need to be able to write your name too). - Walkazo 22:06, 19 August 2012 (EDT)
Technickal to Superyoshi64
Technickal (talk) | Superyoshi64 (talk) |

I need to have my forum and wiki usernames match, and I don't want to change my forum username, so I have to do this.
Also, if possible, please rename my old Superchao account to TheGreatBlockyBoo (basically a nameswap). If that's not okay then just name it Blocky. TheGreatBlockyBoo (talk) 21:06, 17 September 2012 (EDT)

I've decided on this name. i realize i cannot get a change for a while, until October... 18? or 19? Well whatever. PTR (talk) 20:51, 8 November 2012 (EST)
- No, not until December 2, 2012. Your last name change, on Oct. 19, was the second one in the last year, with the name change before that (last December 2nd) being the first (as well as the second for the previous year, after your first name change on Sept. 25, 2011: hence your third name change (your latest one, from October) was only allowed after Sept. 25, 2012). Anyway, long story short, wait until December 2 to post your request. - Walkazo 21:05, 8 November 2012 (EST)

First rename of the year, according to my time zone: GMT +1h. I did say the last time that I won't request anything until January 2013, right? MarioSmasher (talk)
- Actually, you shouldn't have been given another rename until February 16, 2013, since you already had two renames over the past year (last February and last April). Lucky for you, no one checked the math this time. Anyway, for future reference, your next rename can't be until April 9, 2013 at the earliest. - Walkazo 23:01, 1 January 2013 (EST)

— The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shroomerio555 (talk).
- What are you talking about? It's been a long time since I registered, but I don't remember a "verify your username" step... Either way, you username shouldn't have anything to do with your ability to edit, unless you've forgotten it and/or your password - in which case you'd need a new account, not a rename. Besides, you edited this page - that's doing something. Maybe the problem is that you're not autoconfirmed yet? That just means you need to make five edits in order to edit certain protected pages, move pages, upload files and create new articles. - Walkazo 16:27, 4 February 2013 (EST)

This is my second name change in one year, I know. But, I would like to change my name once again. It looks strange to me when my username is at the end of a sentence.
