Damián (talk) 14:08, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Damián80: are you ca:user:Biaggio ? If not I cannot complete this request since they currently have the claim to the global account. Please note it is also probably a good idea to select a name that has no global usage so that you can be renamed globally (77 attached accounts). –xenotalk 22:32, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Xeno:: Hi, I just want to use the name is wikipedia. And what I see Biaggio has no edition in English wikipedia.--Damián (talk) 23:22, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Damián80: Unfortunately per our WP:Handling SUL conflicts guideline I can't grant you this name locally because that would be removing the ca.wiki users' ability to create the global account to which they currently hold the best claim (bureaucrats will typically decline to process requests by local users that would create new SUL conflicts or have the effect of allowing a local user to take over the claim from an active user on another project, even if the SUL account has not yet been created). If you want you could ask them if they don't mind changing their name. –xenotalk 23:28, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

- Yes 'User:McVeigh' is fine I think. I will notify the target user for you and process after the customary hold period. Please note we will complete your rename globally unless you request otherwise. –xenotalk 23:43, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

- We can't grant you this name while the global account is in the way. You'd have to ask at maybe wikinews:Wikinews:Changing username and wiktionary:Wiktionary:Changing username and m:SRUC for local usurps at those projects and global usurp of the username.

- Done locally; global rename would not be possible since renamed at commons. You have to seek rename for your other accounts locally and then special:MergeAccount –xenotalk 12:22, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Xeno: Global rename would have never been possible because there are multiple users with the user name Chander and the global renaming policy only allows renames when the new user name is not registered anywhere. But I do agree with your assessment that the only way forward here is to register a SUL account and then seek renaming on the remaining wikis. odder (talk) 15:30, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
- I had (probably too optimistically) hoped we could get all the existing 'Chander' accounts out of the way before the 15th rolls around and then do a global rename. Chander can complete their SUL in the usual way or at m:SRUC when local renaming is no longer possible on individual projects. –xenotalk 15:41, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

Hello en-wiki admins. My name is Matthias Smed Larsen but on da-wiki I go by the username InsaneHacker. I've been trying to convert my account to a global account but apparently someone registered the username InsaneHacker on en-wiki back in 2006. When looking at the logs I can see the account never made any edits, is there any way for you to see if the account is active at all? And if it isn't, is there a way I can have it? Best Regards InsaneHacker (You can reply here or on my da-wiki talk page)

- Reason: This relates to a request on fiwiki (see diff above). Eemil Kankaanpää wants to have his account renamed to Pohjannaula. However, Pohjannaula@enwiki blocks the global rename process, and Kankaanpää wrote on fiwiki that it is his own account. After Pohjannaula → Eemil Kankaanpää usurpation here on enwiki Ị could fulfill his request as a global renamer (of course steward or another global renamer could do that also, but I'm not overworked with rename requests). I'll ask him to confirm this request here logged in as Pohjannaula (and in English logged in as Eemil Kankaanpää on fiwiki, if needed).

Plus, I've always been charmed by the old F14 Tomcat jet fighter patch, with the cat who's wearing a six-shooter at his hip. I've recently recovered my password, which I'd lost, for a time, and I'd like for my regular Wikipedia edits to be archived under my username again, instead of under my generic i.p. address.

- Reason: Off-wiki harassment, bullying. Also, manuls are awesome, and such a name would inspire me to edit awesomely. I don't particularly want the unified login, but if you must assign it then it looks OK: several zero-edit accounts, one 3-edit account that includes 2 edits to own user pages, and an indef blocked account with 227 edits that contributed to just one article.

- @Xeno: I would give these two accounts the possibility to choose another name and esp. the German account a chance to return. For that reason, I would propose a crazy solution: Renaming all local accounts of Manul away, doing a global rename on Vzaak to Manul and undoing these two local renames so that they can still login and choose a fresh username before and even after completion of that process. That would mean, that Vzaak would not be able to edit dewiki and huwiki until SUL finalisation is completed but afterwards, and will give both these local account an infinit chance to choose a fresh username. What do you think? Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:18, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

- @Sturm br: You have a lot of unattached accounts - this would be best handled with SUL finalization later this year. At that time, I will also be able to merge both your accounts into Sturm. Ajraddatz (Talk) 02:59, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Ajraddatz: Thanks for your rapid answer, Ajraddatz. How can I proceed to the SUL finalization? Sturm br (talk) 03:02, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- It is an automatic process; see m:Single User Login finalisation announcement. If you wanted it done faster, you could notify each unattached account and ask them to pick a new username. But that would be a lot of work when it will be done automatically within a year :-) Ajraddatz (Talk) 05:37, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
