Instructions

SUL finalization

If you are requesting a merge of a global account with one or more unconnected local accounts as part of finalizing your single unified login (SUL) username, please specify which wikis and accounts you want to merge into your global account. These accounts were typically named "account name~wikiname". Please note that we can only merge a local account into a global account when the global account has no edits on the same wiki as the local account.

How to add an entry here

To add an entry, please copy and paste the text below into the appropriate section.

=== Oldname ===
{{SRUC
|status = <!--don't change this line-->
|domain = global
|Oldname =
|Newname =
|reason = (your remarks here)
--~~~~
}}

Example

For global rename requests: 

=== Example ===
{{SRUC
|status = <!--don't change this line-->
|domain = global
|Oldname = Example
|Newname = Foo
|reason = your remarks here
--~~~~
}}


Making a request for your own account

For changing your username on one wiki:

Please include the following information in your request:

  • the old username,
  • the new username,
  • please sign ~~~~ request with your account for a simple move (first section), or sign this request with both the originating and the target accounts if you are requesting a merge (second section).

If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information. This helps ensure that you are requesting a rename for your own account. Please check before posting your request that the username you want is available. You can test that by going to the (new) user page and looking into the sidebar. If there is a link to user contributions, the account already exists, or check via Special:CentralAuth.

Private requests

Account renames are not private, once renamed many links from the old username to the new username will be permanently made. The reason submitted on the rename form (Special:GlobalRenameRequest) is private, and only visible by the renamers. Additional information that needs to be made in private may be sent using this direct wiki-email interface while logged-in.


Simple rename requests

If your rename request is simple and does not involve usurpation of an existing account or other SUL issues, you have two options:

  1. Use the request form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest; or
  2. Submit the request below in this section.

Please use this tool to check if the username is taken before filing a request.

Requests involving merges, usurps or other complications

Please add new requests at the end of the section. Sections should be titled your username and requests should be signed by the requesting user.
Please note: Per standard procedure and consensus, accounts with valid edits are not usurped, and the target account must be notified by renamer at least two weeks before usurpation.

We are sorry to announce that Global User Account Merges are not possible . As such, we will not accept any request to merge user accounts as it is technically impossible at this moment to do so.

{{onhold}} until 1 July, target notified via email also. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 16:30, 31 May 2021 (UTC) [reply ]
@1997kB: Hi. Could I withdraw this request and usurp the user "Trinitrotolueno" instead? I decided I don't want to usurp any account with valid live edits. The new target doesn't have any edits, but is registered in cawiki. Sorry for changing my mind, if it's not possible then withdraw all the request entirely.--Santiago142857 (talk) 04:52, 4 June 2021 (UTC) [reply ]

UBX~metawiki

Status:  On hold

The w:User:UBX account was created to host userboxes migrated via the Userbox Migration.

Similarly, the local User:UBX account was also created, but it has been renamed to User:UBX~metawiki instead of being merged with the global UBX account. (cc: @Liangent, Mets501, Kylu ) — ExE Boss (talk) 20:20, 23 June 2021 (UTC) [reply ]

@ExE Boss: What's the reason behind this merge? Why not simply use UBX global account? ‐‐1997kB (talk) 02:06, 25 June 2021 (UTC) [reply ]
@1997kB: Because the UBX global account isn’t registered locally on Meta: User:UBX — ExE Boss (talk) 13:10, 25 June 2021 (UTC) [reply ]
@ExE Boss: Then it's best to ask owner of UBX to create a local account here. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 14:09, 25 June 2021 (UTC) [reply ]
@1997kB: That’s why I cc’d Liangent, Mets501, and Kylu , they’re the owners of User:UBX and User:UBX~metawiki respectively. — ExE Boss (talk) 14:15, 25 June 2021 (UTC) [reply ]
