:Done. I also blocked your original account since you're using this one now. And just so you know, if you wanted your original name back for this account, you could have asked for it (and still can, but it'll count as another rename). - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 22:09, 12 December 2015 (EST) |
Revision as of 22:09, December 12, 2015
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
Not Bugsy to Yosh Strider
Template:Renameuser "Yosh Strider" is the name I now use on the internet. wow it's Kiryu (TC)
Glitchy Bowser Jr. to Superfiremario
I've decided I like this name more. -- Superfiremario 18:35, 19 April 2015 (EDT)
- Done. This was your second rename in a year, so you can't get another rename until October 27, 2015. - Walkazo 19:10, 19 April 2015 (EDT)
Thank you! -- Superfiremario 17:01, 20 April 2015 (EDT)
Mariao to Roy
Template:Renameuser I don't really use the name "Mariao" anymore.
Mario7 to Nerdy Arianator
Template:Renameuser I use this username now and I feel that it more accurately represents me. M a r i oredgoldred 09:09, 26 April 2015 (EDT)
Floette to Lemon Meringue
Template:Renameuser My actual name is Anthony, and I pick Floette as my username because Floette is my favorite Fairy type Pokémon and Kalos Pokémon. However, Floette is not one of my favorite characters of all time. So I decided to use my second favorite character of all time. Silence Suzuka 20:55, 8 May 2015 (EDT)
Jacob Lott to ShyGuy8
Template:Renameuser I really don't want to use my real name as a username anymore. Shy Guy is my favorite character and 8 is my favorite number so I think this will be a better username for me. (talk|contribs) 21:07, 8 May 2015 (EDT)
AmazingGamer 91 to The Gamer 91
Template:Renameuser I would like to change my username to match my Facebook's and Twitter's name in profiles. -The Gamer 91 2:18 AM (EDT)
Pokemon Trainer Ruby to DLC Dude
Template:Renameuser
I was going to use "Gator Gamer" but I will use the most updated one I can have. I was told to come here to change my username. And I haven't made talk pages for my accounts quite yet. And, be aware, this is my first time doing this, so, I really hope this is right! And hopefully this username is not taken! I made a new account, this one, but someone said to go back to my old account and simply ask for a name change.
— The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gator Gamer (talk).
- Done. I also blocked the duplicate Gator Gamer account, so you can only edit from "DLC Dude" from now on. - Walkazo 20:51, 2 June 2015 (EDT)
Kl193212 to GrodusK
Template:Renameuser My old username was a mess of letters and numbers. The new username matches my Nintendo Network ID. User:Kl193212/sig
Mario to Bazooka Mario
Template:Renameuser As awesome "Mario" is for my username, I think "Bazooka Mario" sounds stupidly cool too, so I'd like to stick with that for a while. It also sounds less generic. Mario-HOHO! (Talk / Stalk) 00:17, 8 June 2015 (EDT)
ShyGuy8 to PowerKamek
Template:Renameuser This is the last name change that I will do until next summer. I like this name! ShyGuy8 (talk) 00:58, 8 June 2015 (EDT)
Deactivate account NicoHood
Template:Renameuser Please deactivate this account so I can no longer login. Please rename my account to something useless before. I am aware that you wont delete it as stated in the Privacy_Policy, just deactivate it (as if I'd be a spammer) please so noone else can hijack and abuse this account. Please don't force me to act as spammer, just disable my account like that. Thanks! :)
- We don't do that either. Just scramble your password if you don't want to be able to log in again. Or just leave and don't come back... - Walkazo 12:07, 8 June 2015 (EDT)
Diancie to Wingo
Template:Renameuser I don't like Pokemon anymore, and it makes me bored. I love Wingo from Cars, and I think I should have it here. ★Heauxfinity (talk)

Torey to Deletion
Template:Renameuser I actually want to delete my account, and I sure which I could because it's bothersome, but I can't. I also don't know how to use the wiki and I'm unfamiliar with it, and also, people don't listen. No, just change it. Torey (talk) 18:34, 19 June 2015 (EDT)Torey
- You can't delete your account. The only way to stop going here is to log out and never log back in. Ray Trace(T|C) 18:44, 19 June 2015 (EDT)

Template:Renameuser I feel like this is more original, and I want to focus less on a Pyro Guy, and more of a Shy Guy who likes fire. Thanks!

Template:Renameuser
Yes, I looked up the name Roy Koopa and found this but it was blocked with no edits in 2011; and while I do like Let's Make a Deal and SM64, I want to have my username be my favorite character, who is Roy Koopa. Go figure! ZonkMario64 (talk) 18:49, 11 September 2015 (EDT)

DigiPen92 to King Marth 64
Template:Renameuser I recently wanted to change my username to King Marth 64 since that I recently changed to DigiPen92 to King Marth 64 in Wikia since in June 2011 and YouTube in last week that I wasn't sure where I suppose to change my username in this wiki till I just found it and I haven't didn't get a chance to do on this account on the Super Mario Wiki for years since I was busy for the recent years.DigiPen92 (talk) 00:11, 8 November 2015 (EST)

YoshiCookie to Technickal
Template:Renameuser I've decided to go back to my old username. I changed it to YoshiCookie because I wasn't on many wikis at the time, and YoshiCookie fit with Super Mario Wiki, but it didn't really fit anywhere else, so I used Technickal elsewhere. For consistency, I'd like to have Technickal back. YoshiCookie (talk) 10:21, 10 December 2015 (EST)
REDMedic to GabrieleHayes
Template:Renameuser GabrieleHayes is close to my original Username before making this account. I'm nervous and I don't know why. GabbyHayes {Contact me if there's any problems.}
