Any particular reason why every time a user is renamed, it shows that the rename log says "renamed user Old Name (which had 0 edits)"? I find the 0 edits part weird. It showed Test2 as having 2 edits, but every one since has "0 edits". — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 17:40, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

I had to modify the script (since that first test) so that it would work with lowercase usernames. I could take a look at fixing that part of the extension, but I'll bet Ben will find it/fix it before I do. -- Tom 17:44, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
Heh. Yeah, you're probably right. I'll put it on my to-do list. — It's dot com 01:19, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hurry Up

Can someone please change the name already?? MichaelXX2 mail_icon.gif link_icon.gif 03:21, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

One way to guarantee that this process will take longer is to post like this. IDC and the other admins have a lot on their mind right now, with the fanstuff purge, the forum getting spam-attacked or trolled as often as it has been and their own real lives, it's a wonder they're still keeping up with anything. --Mario2.PNG Super Martyo boing! 05:49, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Questions

  1. Why is Peter22's request still on this page? It's been there for over a year and a half!
  2. It's Dot Com appears to be the only one who changes usernames anymore; why doesn't the article's intro reflect that? RickTommy 06:44, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
  1. The thread ended with a question for him. The ball is in his court. Since he's been inactive for a while, it will probably be moved the next time we archive.
  2. Just because I'm the only one who has changed anyone's name in a long time doesn't mean I'm the only one who is able to do so. — It's dot com 18:53, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
3. Why doesn't JCM's request have a "done"?
4. Why come only one archive? RickTommy (edits) 23:29, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
I forgot to add the "done" notice. That doesn't mean you need to. We have an archive only so that the project page can be cleaned off periodically. We don't need more than one. — It's dot com 01:46, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
