[edit] Bkmlb

 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.-- 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.-- Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 20:42, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Done. -- Tom 21:23, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks!!-- 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 2004 ^Talk_Contribs 01:09, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

"gwr2004" --> "GWR 2004". Done. -- Tom 02:10, 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. --Sam Goldfish 17:36, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] thatkidsam

Can you do this on the Fanstuff? Change my accounts "thatkidsam" and "Icreature" both to "Thatkidsam". --Thatkidsam 20:04, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

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)

[edit] daunrealist

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)

[edit] invisible robot fish

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)

[edit] woddfellow2

Could you please change my username to

Winslow Oddfellow II

? Thanks in advance —The User Formerly Known as woddfellow2

"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)

[edit] Lappy 486---->Salty

Can I have my name changed to Salty? Also, when I sign with the two hyphens and four tildes, it says my name is already Salty. I don't know why. --Lappy 486 04:32, 26 November 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)

my old username was User:ready for prime time and i just wanted it to be uppercased to Ready For Prime Time.

We don't have a User:ready for prime time registered. Are you sure that was your username? -- Tom 00:14, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I kinda hate passing on Experimental Bill, but I always get "just plain Bill" whenever I can. I'm surprised it's available (it wasn't when I first registered). Thanks for getting my last name out of the limelight ... don't know what I was thinking.

[edit] Emtarkanderundersgunderson

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

You're bound to show up through HRWiki; it's not like we're remote. And no, your username can not be deleted. — Lapper (talk) 22:50, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

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

Can my username be changed to "Business Inquiries" if it can't be deleted?

Why exactly "Business Inquiries"? -- Tom 20:52, 14 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)

Can you please change my username from "Rainer" to "Rob", and if possible, change my username on the fanstuff wiki and the forum. Thanks in advance! «Rob» 11:06, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Oh, also, if "Rob" is already taken on the forum (I haven't checked), "Rob123" is fine for there. «Rob» 11:08, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

"Rainer" --> "Rob". Done on the knowledge base, fanstuff, and the forum. -- Tom 05:27, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AIK_74

AIK_74 -> thecolorofinsanity

please. i wrould rrly appreceate it! — AIK 74 (talk • contribs) 20:12, 11 May 2006 (UTC) (left unsigned)

"thecolorofinsanity" is not a valid username. -- Tom 20:16, 11 May 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

No, creating a known sockpuppet will cause the sockpuppet to be blocked from editing. -- Tom 21:16, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo - AIK 74

[edit] Tampo -->Irnakk

Can I have my name changed to Irnakk? Tampo (^T/C) 21:30, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

No. -- Tom 21:37, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

WHY?!?!  Tampo (^T/C) 21:43, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

You've established such a legacy for yourself as Tampo, I can't justify such a name change. -- Tom 21:49, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

But why can't you change my name to Irnakk? Tampo (^T/C) 22:10, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

It's not that I can't, it's that I won't. -- Tom 22:12, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

WELL WHY WON'T YOU?!?! Tampo (^T/C) 22:13, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Because you've established such a legacy for yourself as Tampo. Also, the next time you shout at me or any other person, I'm going to restrict your editing privileges indefinitely. -- Tom 22:17, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Is it because I made too many edits? Also, I won't yell at you ever again. Tampo (^T/C) 22:19, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

It is because you've established such a legacy for yourself as Tampo. -- Tom 22:21, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Does that mean I've been using my username for a long time? Tampo (^T/C) 22:24, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

No. -- Tom 22:26, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Mind if I field this one? It means that when you say "User:Tampo", most people familiar with the wiki know who you're talking about. That's your legacy. --DorianGray

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 ^T_C 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)

Aww. It's would be pronounced "ApocalypX". Drat. Count X ^Talk _Email 05:55, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Count X --> ApocalypX

Alright, fine. Here. ApocalypX. Teh endzors. Just ApocalypX. Please? Count X ^Talk _Email 05:56, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

My name is Evan, so..."Eh! Van"..."Evan"...I think you get it.

Erm...I don't know how long it takes to respond to these, but...has anyone read this? -- Thnikkaguy 06:18, 2 June 2006

Done. Sometimes it only takes five minutes for us to respond. Sometimes it's longer. It just depends on what else is going on, I suppose. — It's dot com 04:13, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Homestar is wicked!

Can I change mine too Homestar101 please? If it hasn't already been used. I'm from the HRWiki Fanstuff site, so it may not work.

I will be happy to make the change, but you have to request it while you're logged in. If you don't have an account on the knowledge base, then edit your fanstuff user page or talk page with something like "I want to change my name to Homestar101." — It's dot com 17:24, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Uhhhh... no. --Sam Goldfish 21:19, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, you see, normally we don't have a problem renaming a person once, say from User:A to User:B. If, however, you want to go from B to C (or back to A), then you need to provide some kind of good reason for all the switching. — It's dot com 20:43, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Just about everywhere else, I'm still known as "Trogga". --Sam Goldfish 17:00, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Can you change my name to Bantam-Boy, i cant log in due to the lower case first letter

Thats impossible. Because Bantam-Boy has just edited.--H*Bad 13:22, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

There is no bantam-boy (lowercase) in the userlist... Bantam-Boy (capitals), and, as H*Bad mentioned, Bantam-Boy (capitals) is still editing now... Is it you, and you just forgot your password for a bit or something? phlip ^T_C 14:10, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

"bombcar" --> "Bombcar". Done. -- Tom 04:43, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Regarding the search problem here and with the one above, it appears that the system is "helpfully" automatically capitalizing the first letter for us, making it impossible to directly search for a name that begins with a lowercase character. To see what I mean, click those links again and you will get a result. — It's dot com 04:54, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

I've thought a long time, and I've found the best way to change my username is that of Rob's. If this doesn't work out for some reason, you know where to find me via email. Thanks for not saying I'm grasping for attention like last time. — seriously talk 00:35, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Ah, there is a ripberger894 on the forum... The user lists for the wiki and the forum are seperate - registering for one doesn't register you for the other. You have to create an account on the wiki if you want to log in here. phlip ^T_C 06:13, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Are you sure that you registered an account with the Wiki, and not the Fanstuff Wiki or the forum? --ENUSY 22:04, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

There is no "killer vane" in the userlist on the wiki, the fanstuff, or the forum. There isn't a "Killer vane" (with a capital) either. Are you certain you registered here with that name? You could always simply register a new account... as I said, "Killer vane" is avaliable. phlip ^T_C 00:37, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

change to Mancusoinaccounting please? thanx

There is no "mancusoinaccounting" in the userlist on the wiki or the fanstuff. There is, however, one on the forum, which I assume you just created.
