Revision as of 16:38, August 22, 2018
The wiki software allows bureaucrats to change any user account to a new name, as long as it's not already in-use by someone else.
All edits made by the user will be changed in the edit history to reflect the change. However, this feature has been somewhat abused in the past, so there are some limits:
|
Previous renames are archived: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
Instructions
- Create a new subsection at the bottom of the page using this syntax:
=== CurrentName to NewName ===
- Below this, use {{rename user}} and put both your current and desired names (both case-sensitive), using this format:
{{rename user|CurrentName|NewName}}
- Leave a comment as to why you want the change after the template and then save the page.
- Bureaucrats will check this page regularly and if accepted can use the "Rename" link on the top-right corner of each section to directly change the username and move all userspace pages.
- The bureaucrat will say whether the name change is accepted or rejected in each section, and if rejected, why (such as already being given a name change over the preceding 12 months).
Requests
GSYoshi to J-Luigi
GSYoshi (talk) | J-Luigi (talk) |
---|---|
Approved |
My trademark around the internet is having my name begin with J-, so I think I'd like to bring that here. Also you might have heard that I like Luigi a lot lately, so I'm going with J-Luigi.
Also first request off this archive, so that's notable I guess. J-Luigi (talk) 19:44, 16 June 2017 (EDT)
The Koopa Bro. to Shy Guy on Wheels
The Koopa Bro. (talk) | Shy Guy on Wheels (talk) |

Koopas lost shell to Koops
Koopas lost shell (talk) | Koops (talk) |
---|---|
Rejected |
Koops is my forum username, and everyone knows me under it. Koopas lost shell has become an obscure name, I want to change it.Koopas lost shell 04:31, 10 July 2017 (EDT)
- I'm very sorry, but that username is already registered and has made legitimate edits. You'll have to choose another name.
I see. Should I suggest that other name right here, or do I create a new section for it? Koopas lost shell 07:32, 11 July 2017 (EDT)
- Best create a new section.
Koopas lost shell to ManKoops
Koopas lost shell (talk) | ManKoops (talk) |

Skuchi037 (talk) | lcrossmk8 (talk) |

lcrossmk8 is my main name across the Internet on such places as YouTube, GameFAQs, and more...except here. Since I work here mainly, I'd like to be called lcrossmk8 to fit with my other names. Lcrossmk8 (talk) 17:22, 21 August 2017 (EDT)

FebruaryDracaena to Mashabely
FebruaryDracaena (talk) | Mashabely (talk) |

My current one is too long, and mashabely at least fits my forum username, and you have to have them match according to the rules. --FebruaryDracaena (talk) 03:30, 2 September 2017 (EDT)
Supermario85 to BNSFFan184
Supermario85 (talk) | BNSFFan184 (talk) |
---|---|
Approved |
I feel like my username isn't that appropriate and people may think I am a Super Mario profile, so I request this name change so I can have a more casual username, not to mention this name actually matches most of my other usernames on other websites. --Supermario85 (talk) 23:03, 13 September 2017 (PDT)

"Yosh Strider" is another deprecated internet name I don't use anymore. Plus naming myself after one of my characters is a lot less likely to become outdated :P wow it's Kiryu (TC) 21:18, 18 September 2017 (EDT)

The Golden Yoshi to Cash In
The Golden Yoshi (talk) | Cash In (talk) |
---|---|
Approved |
Cash In is a name that I've been using online for the last year or so. Using it here would not only make things more consistent and easier to remember, but it would also make it easier for users to recognise me outside the wiki. Golden Yoshi 22:17, 11 July 2018 (EDT)
