Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple/Archive2

These were pending and unconfirmed requests from before the time bureaucrats were able to change usernames. If your request is here and not yet fulfilled, please re-apply using the new process at Wikipedia:Changing username.


  • I made a name change request a long time ago, but received no reply. If fulfilling the request ends up losing my user history, that's fine -- I just want to be sure to get my old name back. I would like my username changed from user:Mr. Treesong to just user:Treesong. The username user:Treesong is my old account, but I couldn't log in to it because I switched email addresses and lost my password. If this can't be done, please give me a reply saying so. To prove that it's really me, I can tell you the two or three old emails that it may have been registered under: [email protected]; [email protected] or .net; [email protected]. 21:54, 3 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • I'm in the same situation as Renamer/Dissident: asking for a merger of histories. I created a new username after Ed Poor asked, and I now have history under both my old username (I am Jack's username) and my current username (Jeandré). If there are no objections to the acute in my real name, please merge their histories; but deleting the I am Jack's username user page and its talk page before the merge, so as to not overwrite the ones of my current user page and its talk page. Thanks.
  • Please change my user name from from "René Gass" to "René Gaß" in the German Wikipedia, thank you!

I confirm the request of changing my Username from Urbanus to Thomas Luft on en, de and meta (I did create the new username on all three wikipedias). Do I have to do anything special to keep my sysop status in :de?--Thomas Luft 22:15, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Please change my username from User:Hydrotaphia, which is a typo, to User:Hydriotaphia. Thanks very much indeed.Hydrotaphia 00:21, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • Update: I wasn't aware that I had to create the new username myself. I have now done so, and I hereby confirm my request for a username change. Thank you. Hydriotaphia 01:19, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • If possible, could I have my username changed to User:Indophile? I'm afraid I've already registered this username. However, as yet, no edits at all have been made to or from it, as I was reluctant to lose the contribution history of my current username. --Phil R 06:32, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)

  • I signed up twice, by error: Once as JoWi and once as Jowi. Now I wish Jowi to be deleted and the edits I made using user Jowi renamed to JoWi ... but JoWi already exists! :( Anything you can do about this? Thanx, 149.225.216.120 12:38, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Pls. delete user "Laura trippi" -- unexpected initial caps! No attribution changes required. Thanks! --Laura Trippi
  • I signed up not realizing that the initial character of my username User:Jolson would be turned into a capital. It therefore didn't turn out like the computer username I wanted it to. I therefore would like to use User:Jonas Olson instead. It would be a good thing having my contributions transferred to a new account name and I think it would be nice to tidy things up by not leaving the old one around but turning it into User:Jonas Olson. Perhaps someone else want to use the old one too. Thank you.
  • Please change username pgdudda to Yarram. Maintaining identity continuity would be nice, but is not required. Thanks! pgdudda 13:26, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Please change my username from User:ntate_sw to User:eric_sw. Sorry, I didn't think long enough before choosing. Ntate is my chat name, for Wikipedia I'd like to use my real name. Thank you!
    • The account ntate sw does not exist. Please log in before making your request. Angela. 19:36, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)
  • I'd like to request a name username change. The stuart to currentdatentime. Thanks.The_stuart 00:32, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • For capitalization purposes, please change Robballan to RobbAllan. Thx. -- Robballan 4 Jan 2005
  • Please change my user name and all attributions from Noah Peters to 5440orFight. Thank you.
  • I just joined earlier today as User:Funhistory while using another computer and edited the Lachish page; later tonight on my home computer I edited the Hezekiah page before logging in. Please change the editing History on that Hezekiah page to User:Funhistory instead of my home IP address of 12.72.80.243 if possible. Thanks!
  • I created a new username for me (User:Porcher) and would like to know if it's possible to merge the history of my old username (User:Eduardoporcher) with my current one. Thank you and sorry of the inconvenience. Porcher 00:12, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Please change my username from User:Jeff Rosenberg to User:Jeffrey L. Rosenberg; I created that username before I was aware of the opportunity to set a nickname. I don't believe I have actually completed editing any articles (other than this one!) under the original name, so that account can harmlessly be merged into the new one, or even deleted, if that is a possible thing to do. --Jeff Rosenberg 14:43, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Please merge my account with User:Mr Tan from User:Wikizap. I created a new account at a time when my current account is defective.
  • please change my username "Zhoumg" to "Jack_Zhou". Thanks a lot!
