On hold until 01 April 2025, also notified via email. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:30, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Hi DreamRimmer, May I know why on hold? I don't think I received any emails. Thank you in advance FreddyKrueger43 (talk) 12:37, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
User:FreddyKrueger43, please read above and the email is for the one who will get usurped

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.

Not done. The requested username has made a large number of edits (over 1400), and we do not usurp usernames of this kind. @Muratweb. Neriah - 💬 - 18:35, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Status: Done

@21GauriGuptaa There is no account named "GauriGuptaa." Have you spelled it correctly? —MdsShakil (talk) 16:07, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
@MdsShakil: There seems a little typo. My thought, it is "Gauri Guptaa", but lets allow Gauri to respond. signed, Aafi (talk) 16:08, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
cool, we have it. signed, Aafi (talk) 16:09, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
@MdsShakil and @Aafi: Thank you for pointing that out. Yes, there was a small typo, and I’ve corrected it now. Apologies for the confusion! 21GauriGuptaa (talk) 16:12, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
@MdsShakil: I don't think we would need to wait here given that the target account belongs to the requester. Do you have any concerns? If no, I would want to take care of thos request then. signed, Aafi (talk) 09:22, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
@Aafi Do you or the requester have any evidence to support that claim? If not, we must follow the standard procedure. —MdsShakil (talk) 09:30, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

Valorrr

Status: Not done

--Valorrr (talk) 19:44, 5 April 2025 (UTC)

Not done @Valorrr: You created the account 21 days ago, usurpation is available only for well-established users. Please feel free to submit your request again after some time. aqurs 🍧 05:50, 6 April 2025 (UTC)
Just noting: The requested account edited just two years ago [1], appears to be someone who uses their account infrequently to do some minor changes (34 valid edits so far). The account is therefore ineligible for usurpation even for more established users. Johannnes89 (talk) 07:04, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

Status: Not done

Not done @Vittorio.nex: Target has valid edits and cannot be usurped. Furthermore, your account is not yet established and therefore is not eligible for a usurp, as it has just been created. Thanks for your understanding! --Superpes15 (talk) 21:40, 9 April 2025 (UTC)

@Tatius9119 and Scholarlypast: Do you have any preference for the current "Scholarlypast" account? Do you want a rename or do you prefer a usurpation (so "Scholarlypast (usurped)")? Thanks Superpes15 (talk) 23:49, 11 April 2025 (UTC)

@Uxj: Do you have any proof to support your claim? If not, we won't be able to help with this. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:53, 10 April 2025 (UTC)
I hope it was linked to an e-mail address. You can try to reach T&S at ca(_AT_)wikimedia.org . They could assist you in recovering your previous account :) Superpes15 (talk) 00:26, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
@Uxj: Any updates on this request? Thanks! Superpes15 (talk) 12:47, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
i think i linked an email but i no longer have access to the email address Uxj (talk) 20:09, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
Not done In this situation, we are not able to help with the usurpation. Just noting, when someone has forgotten the login details of their old account and does not have anything to prove the connection, we normally follow the standard procedure. But in this case, the target account was active just two weeks ago. As per the usual process, the account needs to be inactive for at least two years for us to consider such a request. – DreamRimmer (talk) 17:28, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

Azyn

Status: Done

--Azyn (talk) 02:09, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

On hold until 18 April. @Azyn: Please note that you were already renamed twice (for the log 1 and 2) in the last year and a half and, after this usurp (which also involves the renames of another user which is usurped), future renames may not be granted without valid reason. Thanks for your understanding --Superpes15 (talk) 02:26, 4 April 2025 (UTC)
Note: User is currently blocked for 2 weeks for edit warring. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 11:39, 13 April 2025 (UTC)
Thanks, I see that the block is limited to a single page. I'd ask if the blocking admin is fine with rename atm but, since the block will expire in 2 days, I'm putting this on hold until 19 April, after the block is expired.
P.S. Pinging @Drmies: to notify them of this rename! Superpes15 (talk) 12:46, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
Superpes15, I don't think I ever objected to their user name. I commented on it, I think, but I blocked them for edit warring, nothing else. Drmies (talk) 23:15, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
Done @Drmies: Thanks for confirmation! We usually don't rename blocked user and always ask blocking admin or the project if they agree with the rename (or we notify them of the rename to avoid confusing the user) --Superpes15 (talk) 23:23, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

Gremista.32

Status: Done

-- Gremista.32 msg 03:30, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

On hold until 21 April. ⋆ ̊。⋆୨✧୧ ̊ LINH ̊୨✧୧⋆。 ̊⋆ 🎀 CUTE 🎀 10:50, 7 April 2025 (UTC)
I'm somewhat uncertain. While the user is indeed blocked on ptwiki, the reason for the block is poor encyclopedic writing. Additionally, the user holds sysop rights on two other projects. Therefore, I do not believe this case falls under the policy clause: "The user is not seeking the rename to conceal or obfuscate bad conduct."
I would appreciate input from a global renamer or another steward before proceeding with the request. Neriah - 💬 - 10:07, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
@Neriah: I do not see any issue with it. The user is indeed trusted. – DreamRimmer (talk) 14:40, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
I see no objections so I will handle this. – Phương Linh (T · C · CA · L · B) 15:07, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

Not done after internal discussion. Not much has changed since your last request (no new contributions). There is no valid reason for a rename at this time, so I'm declining per rename policy 1, 2 and 3. Wüstenspringmaus talk 05:26, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
