Global rename

Hi, I'm planning to change my username for privacy reasons. My question is, is there any limit like number of contributions? My current global contributions is about 80,000, and I'm an administrator in Indonesian Wikipedia, hence the high number. I'm asking about this since there was a user which got their global rename process stuck because they had 100,000 global contributions at the time. The process then had to be solved through Phabricator. Asking this just to make sure i wouldn't go through the same issue. -- Bagas Chrisara (talk) 07:42, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

@Bagas Chrisara: Well the process has improved alot since then, and there's no contributions limit now, so feel free to go for it. You can request at Special:GlobalRenameRequest. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 07:48, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Problems with user Fr. Wiki AlainPainchaud

Thank you for taking time to look at my request.

I am sorry to ask you that. In my opinion, it should have been resolved long time ago. I can not change because they block me and they would not do it. I insist, I DO NOT WANT TO BYPASS RESTRICTION, I WANT TO CHANGE USERNAME AND PARK ACCOUNT. Thank you for the other contacts. I will check if they are willing to help me. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AlainPainchaud (talk) 08:15, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Global renamer permission on Vietnamese Wikipedia

Hello, who should I contact to to get a renamer permission? Since the only renamer has retired for some reason and we don't have any renamer to handle that. Thanks! Phjtieudoc (talk) 01:20, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

Hey @Phjtieudoc:, You need to request at SRGP and for the information you will get rename permission for all wiki's not just Vietnamese. Although Trần Nguyễn Minh Huy hasn't retired yet, having a second renamer for Vietnamese wiki will be great as local page get good amount of request. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 03:54, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

Name change "Not done"

Hi, I requested a name change as Aghahremanifar, username changed to FelisObscura and now it says that it's not done. What shall I do? Also, I have to add that I'm "not logged it" automatically. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by FelisObscura (talk) 13:38, 1 May 2020‎ (UTC)

Hi, While you submitted request to change to Aghahremanifar, you also submitted another request to change it to FelisObscura and that was handled and you were renamed. If you didn't wanted to be renamed to FelisObscura, then why you submitted another request? ‐‐1997kB (talk) 13:48, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

I did not request to to change to neither Aghahremanifar, nor FelisObscura! I requested to change my username from Aghahremanifar to Aesuithiel. Please, change my username to Aesuithiel. I have checked and It's not taken. This is the only request I have ever submitted on "Steward requests/Username changes". But, after it marked "not done" I submitted the same request again, and you reverted it. Funny, I don't even know what this new username mean. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by FelisObscura (talk) 14:33, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

User name change

Hello, I would like to change my Wikipedia username from Shobhasv to Shobha. I checked if the username is available and I found out that 'user:Shobha' (https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Shobha) started their account on simple.wikipedia.org five years ago in 2015. But there have been no edits under their name. It looks like it's a sleeper account. Considering the dormant nature of this account, is it possible for me to have this username instead?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks. Shobhasv (talk) 04:04, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi Shobhasv, yes it is possible to take this username if owner of this account doesn't oppose after notification from renamer (likely they not gonna respond, but just to make it clear). For that process to start please make a request at SRUC. See you there. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 07:35, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

0 contributions renames or vanishing

Hi! I have a question, about two types of situations that can be sometimes seen in a Queue.

• User has 0 contributions and requests a rename. Should we proceed or let him know to open up another account? Should we only proceed if a user wants to change his nickname because it contains private information?
• User has a small number of contributions (less than 100-200, most of them have their accounts open for at least a few years) and requests vanishing. En.wiki says here that courtesy vanishing is reserved for users in good standing and that it is discretionary and may be refused. Is there an established rule of thumb from which moment should we consider such applications? Cheers! Nadzik (talk) 09:50, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi Nadzik,

• I see no issues granting renames to 0 contribution accounts. Creating a new account takes similar resources to getting renamed. See FAQs. Furthermore some users only create account for Wikipedia mobile apps and use it to sync list of article they want to read and in such situation creating a new account will lead loss of that synced data.
• First of all, low contributions doesn't mean that account is not in good standing. Good standing can be interpreted as no active block or series of blocks or user history of abusing rename. So as long as they do not have any of these issues we should accept such requests. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 10:12, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

Special:GlobalRenameQueue/request/65920

Hi! What would you say about the request like that? User requests vanishing after a 10-year absence, most of his contributions are either vandalisms, own space edits or sandbox edits. Cheers! Nadzik (talk) 21:26, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

@Nadzik: Clear case of a user not in good standing. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 14:23, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

Need to update Map of India on Hindi page

@अतुलयादव: No idea why you are getting that error. It could be that file you created have different extension than current one. If you could provide exact error or screenshot than I might explain better. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 15:06, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

@1997kB: It said, "you can't over-right this file". But yesterday I tried again and was able to update the file just fine. I guess earlier I was not allowed because my account is new. Anyways file updated successfully. You can mark close/complete this convo. Thank you 😊 --अतुलयादव (talk) 04:35, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

@蟲蟲飛: Usually we don't grant renames to blocked users, but I think we can go in this case as a) it's not their homewiki and b) it's an old block. Still I left that note to see if others agree or not. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 16:16, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Panda*5

Hi! This user has created his own usurpation request on another user's talk page. I know that it has been over 12 years since the original user was last active, but I still think that this is highly unusual. Cheers! Nadzik (talk) 09:10, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

@Nadzik: Sorry, didn't get you. If you meant both user are same.. I don't think so. But in aby case that user has valid contributions and thus it's not eligible for usurpation. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 15:14, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

User:Neyakkoo

Hello, 1997kB. I created a speedy deletion request because I couldn't see any information about Wikipedia other than the central auth at the bottom of the page. I know that such pages are deleted by admins per policy. Tulsi Bhagat previously deleted this page for the same reason. If there is something I can't see, I would be glad if you could help. --Uncitoyen^talk 10:06, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

@Uncitoyen: (talk page stalker) This current version at least is more focused on the contributions than the previous one deleted (I seen the previous one - that's marginally G7 but I won't G7 that either). At least if they write something about wiki (like the contributions), that's usually fine for meta. Might want to bring this to RFD, it's more suitable for RFD discussion but to be honest, if the concern is the huge chunk of text, let's remove it leaving the SUL there. Regards, Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 10:29, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

@Camouflaged Mirage: It seemed to me that the user is more self-explanation than explanation its contributions on Wikipedia. I thought it was the same because I can't fully see the previous deletion. The English message looks a bit like an autobiography. My concern is that pages like this will be deleted and this page not be deleted. Maybe the user better edit its page a little more? You know better than I do because you have seen with these situations. If I hesitate, I would do RfD. --Uncitoyen^talk 10:55, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

@Uncitoyen: Yeah, different admins will have different yardstick, no doubt some may delete this as G7. I had done some trimming and hope now the page is okay for you. Just trim whatsoever you need, if the user reverts, bring to RFD, that's my way of doing it. Thanks for the effort in patrolling userpages. A google translate shows the hi part completely in scope, hence, it stays. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 11:08, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

@Camouflaged Mirage: Thank you. Now it's better for me. 1997kB, I'm sorry, if you aren't satisfied with using your talk page for texting with Camouflaged here. --Uncitoyen^talk 12:54, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
