Instructions
SUL finalization
If you are requesting a merge of a global account with one or more unconnected local accounts as part of finalizing your single unified login (SUL) username, please specify which wikis and accounts you want to merge into your global account. These accounts were typically named "account name~wikiname". Please note that we can only merge a local account into a global account when the global account has no edits on the same wiki as the local account.
How to add an entry here
To add an entry, please copy and paste the text below into the appropriate section.
=== Oldname ===
{{SRUC
|status = <!--don't change this line-->
|domain = global
|Oldname =
|Newname =
|reason = (your remarks here)
--~~~~
}}
Example |

For global rename requests: === Example === {{SRUC |status = <!--don't change this line--> |domain = global |Oldname = Example |Newname = Foo |reason = your remarks here --~~~~ }} |
Making a request for your own account
For changing your username on one wiki:
Please include the following information in your request:
- the old username,
- the new username,
- please sign
~~~~
request with your account for a simple move (first section), or sign this request with both the originating and the target accounts if you are requesting a merge (second section).
If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information. This helps ensure that you are requesting a rename for your own account. Please check before posting your request that the username you want is available. You can test that by going to the (new) user page and looking into the sidebar. If there is a link to user contributions, the account already exists, or check via Special:CentralAuth.
Private requests
Account renames are not private, once renamed many links from the old username to the new username will be permanently made. The reason submitted on the rename form (Special:GlobalRenameRequest) is private, and only visible by the renamers. Additional information that needs to be made in private may be sent using this direct wiki-email interface while logged-in.
Global requests
Two options exist for requesting renames
- Use the (new) request form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest; or
- Utilise the manual process outlined above, and submitted below in this section.
Please add new requests to this section. Sections should be titled your username@global if you wish to be globally renamed.
Sarimsak@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: Sarim (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: Sarimsak (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason:
I have two Wikipedia accounts – one as Sarim, and another as Sarimsak. I firstly registered as Sarim, but I observed after some time that I have forgotten my password, and I did not know at that time how to recover it. Therefore I made a new registration as Sarimsak. I would like to merge these two accounts by renaming Sarim to Sarimsak, and in order to prove that both belong to me, I arranged that both correspond to one and same e-mail address now. P.S. As I was informed yesterday, my username Sarim will be changed in August 2015 anyway.
Done. -- Mentifisto 22:06, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
StreamingMeeMee@global
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (stewardry • list 'crats)
- Old Username: StreamingMeeMee (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • CentralAuth • GlobalRenameUser)
- New Username: StreamingMeeMee! (talk • edits • logs • cross-wiki-contribs • userpages • similar names • UV • CentralAuth)
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: I've just received an email informing me that my username is not globally unique. It is very likely that I registered this same name under a different Wiki with a different email address. I would strongly prefer to have the original name; Is there some way for me to figure out which other wiki I may have registered that name with? Thanks.
- Your account is global now. Where did you get the message you need to rename ? 62.0.53.15 06:59, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
- Your account is now global, see Special:CentralAuth/StreamingMeeMee. You can ignore the message that you got. Regards, --Stryn (talk) 09:04, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
Requests with usurps and complex renames
Please add new requests at the end of the section. Sections should be titled your username@project name .

- Hi User:Chess. So you want your 123chess456 accounts on commons, simplewiki, simplewikt and wikidata to be renamed to "Chess"? --MF-W 15:50, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Well, I've usurped on enwiki, so please change all of my accounts that you are able to to "Chess". I will have to make an usurp request on every individual wiki? Chess (talk) 20:03, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- There is not yet "global usurpation policy", so I guess you will have to request usurpation locally for now and the bureaucrats will have to ask Stewards to fulfill those local requests. –xeno 20:36, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Per Xeno above, we can't start ignoring local usurpation guidelines, asking local bureaucrats for comment might indeed be the best solution, though we also have to keep in mind that this is atransitional period to SUL finalisation where all these accounts will be forcibly renamed. Done on es.wiki - as a local bureaucrat - and on enwikibooks and enwiktionary per previous precedents. Savhñ 20:53, 15 September 2014 (UTC) And some more (kawikibooks, trwikibooks, trwikiquote, mediawikiwiki, jawiki) based on previous precedents. Savhñ 21:37, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Two issues should be separated here: 1.) The renaming of the remaining 123chess456 accounts who have edits to the new name; 2.) The renaming ("usurpation") of the unattached Chess accounts.
- In order to solve 1.), I have just done the following renames: (so please visit Special:MergeAccount)
- Chess@commons->Chess (self-usurped)@commons
- 123chess456@commons->Chess@commons
- 123chess456@simple->Chess@simple
- 123chess456@simplewikt->Chess@simplewikt
- Chess@wikidata->Chess (self-usurped)@wikidata
- 123chess456@wikidata->Chess@wikidata
- The only remaining 123chess456'es with edits are on Meta and enwiki. That is obviously unsolvable at the moment, maybe you will want to request a merge when that function exists. --MF-W 21:04, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

- Reason: I would like to usurp this account to complete my unification
- Uitgevoerd. Heb je een account op en.wiki die eventueel bij je globaal account toegevoegd moet worden? Savhñ 13:34, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, user:Pepelikana on en.wp could be merged please, ty Pelikana (talk) 13:44, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
- @Pelikana, can you provide an edit with the Pepelikana@enwiki account, so we can confirm you own that account? Savhñ 13:52, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

- @Pelikana, can you provide an edit with the Pepelikana@enwiki account, so we can confirm you own that account? Savhñ 13:52, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, user:Pepelikana on en.wp could be merged please, ty Pelikana (talk) 13:44, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
- Geachte Pelikana, na het te hebben besproken met andere stewards, en aangezien nu beide accounts op en.wiki van jou zijn en je ook bovendien één bewerking hebt op nl.wiki met Pepelikana, lijkt het ons het verstandigst om te wachten op de activering van de Account-merge-tool. Hiermee zal het mogelijk worden andere accounts onder één naam samen te voegen. De verwachting is dat deze tool in de komende maand beschikbaar wordt.
- Als je een ander account hebt op de.wiki die je ook aan dit accout toegevegd wenst, laat het dan hier even weten. Zodra het technisch mogelijk is, zullen we het uitvoeren. Savhñ 14:14, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

- Confirmation difflink: [4]
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: Dear Wikimedia Foundation. I have requested to change (Usurpation) my username from روخو to khaled at https://ar.wikipedia.org and it was done successfully in February 13, 2013 15:51. recently I have noticed that my new user name (khaled) does not work at all Wikimedia foundation projects, such as commons.wikimedia.org, ar.wiktionary.org, ar.wikinews.org... Please notice that I have contribution at the previous mentioned projects and I want them to be under my new name. I have asked some administrators at ar.wikipedia.org and they advised me to make request here. I want to have all my contributions at all Wikimedia projects to be under my new name (Khaled) and want to have one user (unified login) mane to access all the different Wikimedia projects. Thanks for your considerations and waiting for your feedback.
Best Regards,
Khaled Mahmoud --روخو (talk) 11:34, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
- I have usurped all "Khaled" accounts without any live edits, so you should be able to edit all projects except de.wiki and fi.wiki with your "Khaled" account. I suggest you wait for SUL finalisation and the deployment of AccountMerge to merge these two. Alternatively, we could merge the accounts the old way (all individually) but that could lead to problems. Savhñ 14:13, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

- Confirmation difflink: [5]
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req

- Reason: I would like to change username "Peka" to "Pekachu" on 4 ja- projects. Because I'd like to merge my 6 accounts under unified login. --Pekachu (talk) 08:22, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
On hold @Pekachu: before we can do anything we require for you to make this account a global account. Please follow the link in your "My Preferences" to achieve this, and let us kn when that is done. We also require those accounts that are yours under the username "Peka" each are edited on their user or user talk pages by you so that we know that they are your accounts.

Also @billinghurst Hello, I do not agree with the solution you provided. I don't want to link Pietro.ziveri to any random string but, as my original intention was: to MERGE P.ziveri and Pietro.ziveri accounts in one account: P.ziveri and, after merging, delete or cancel the information by Pietro.ziveri. I don't know why you renamed ONLY the itWP and itWS accounts and have left the enWP and meta accounts at the user name Pietro.ziveri which I want completely ERASED and MERGED into P.ziveri for the Privacy reasons mentioned in my first request. Special:PermanentLink/11066362#P.ziveri.40global I prefer to WAIT (as you suggested) until mergers are available later this year (when btw?). Thank You for your help.
awaiting global merge It was the solution suggested by a global renamer, to which no response was made. If you really want those 20+ edits then you will need to wait until global merge is available. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:18, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

- Confirmation difflink: [10]
- Previous renames: current user, target user. Queue: open req, closed req
- Stewards/Global renamers: usurp user, rename user
- Reason: My first account on wikipedia was 'User:Aharon' but ever since single user login in 2011, I've been using the account I first made at the wikimedia commons ('User:Aharonium') for use on all Wikimedia sites including Wikipedia and Wikisource. Until now I've included the User alternative account template on both my account Talk pages but an experienced editor (User:IZAK) strongly recommended I establish one account so as to remove any suspicion of sock puppetry. If possible, I'd like all the edits that I made to articles under my User:Aharon account migrated to User:Aharonium, so that my complete edit history is preserved and correctly attributed. If that's possible could you please go ahead with this username change? Thank you. 24.165.97.140 13:02, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
- Since you have contributed with both accounts on en.wiki, we'll need to wait for AccountMerge. To allow us to merge your accounts once AccountMerge is deployed, please access en:Special:MergeAccount while logged into your Aharon account to create a global account. Otherwise, we will not be able to perform the merge. Savhñ 20:18, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

- Yes, originally I was Bob l'éponge (can't spell it correctly with my phone), then I changed to ÖPNV-Bob l'éponge to emphasize that I'm interested in railway stuff (ÖPNV is German for public transport), but because I'm so stupid I didn't noticed when I logged in with the old name, leading to the 'reactivation' of that account. Later, I chose to rename me to U-Bahnfreund (metro friend), but again I sometimes forgot the rename, meaning ÖPNV-Bob l'éponge was also 'reactivated'. Lastly, in November, I think, I kinda didn't like that name anymore so I settled on Metrophil44. Fortunatly I already discovered my faults so I didn't reactivated that account too, so I just have to let the other two be merged with my real account. -- Metrophil44 (talk) 21:28, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

he has already bought youit should not be a problem) so that I become the owner of the nickname there, then I need merging BaseSat@commonswiki, which is my temporary account in there with Base@global so that I have all my contributions in Wikimedia wikis under nickname Base. Perfectly all the rest of BaseSats crosswiki should be merged as well - they are mine. BaseSat acc now has SUL deleted on purpose: otherwise it would be impossible to be logged in to Base@global and BaseSat@commons in one browser at the same time - so please unless you're gonna fulfil my request to the end don't merge the BaseSats into BaseSat@global. --Base (talk) 19:07, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

If there's any way to resolve these issues, that would be great.

- Reason: I request to usurp Banjo@global to complete SUL process for my username. I have the SUL account Banjo, and there are a few project accounts for which I do not have access. Neither of them appear to have active content and were last used many years ago, except in nowiki with a few (<10) edits per year. Can they be renamed so that my SUL account is unique? Thanks!
- He usurpado todas las cuentas locales que no tenían ediciones. Las que tienen ediciones (nowiki, itwiki, commons, cs.wiki, nlwiki y dawiki) requieren un aviso al usuario, y preferiblemente una solicitud de su parte. Considerando el gran número de ediciones de las cuentas de nowiki y de itwiki, no creo que sea apropiado usurparlas por el momento, por lo cual les he dejado un mensaje informativo del caso. Las otras cuentas han sido informadas de que serán usurpadas a no ser que soliciten el cambio de nombre. En un mes, se podrá proceder a la usurpación.
- En todo caso, con la finalización de SUL, también las cuentas de itwiki y nowiki serán usurpadas automáticamente. Puesto que me parece que no necesitas editar esos proyectos, prefiero dejarlo hasta el SUL finalisation.
- Done for all 0-edit accounts,
On hold for commons, cswiki, nlwiki and dawiki until the 7th April, where the users have been informed that they would be usurped in a month. The accounts on nowiki and itwiki have >100 edits, and though they have been informed of approaching finalisation and given the possibility to request a rename, they should not be usurped IMO (or else, they should be informed they will be usurped with a deadline).

- Reason: I would like to keep my current username, which is User:Mark L MacDonald; but since the beginning I've been using "Mark M" as my signature. So to avoid confusion I'd like en:User:Mark M to redirect to my userpage (which is does on en.wiki). But I've also been advised that I should usurp that account, since it has a couple old edits on it that weren't mine. So I created en:User:Mark Lewis MacDonald to usurp en:User:Mark M. I asked to do this on en.wiki, but apparently there are a few edits on ru.wiki as well that aren't mine.. hence my request here. I hope that makes sense. Thanks,

and rename Nick UA accounts in these wikis to NickK (except dewikibooks where I have no account so far). The owner of these three NickK accounts to be usurped, de:Benutzer:NickK stated that he does not want to have a SUL.
If usurpation is not possible now, please delete the global account Nick_UA: it creates me problems when I move from enwiki or dewiki to other wikis (it has just created me automatically an account uk:Користувач:Nick UA although I do not need it).

- Reason: Please excuse me if I filled out the template incorrectly. When I registered my bot account Cgtbot on dawiki in 2012 I got locked out of it because I forgot to add an e-mail address to the account and I lost the password, which I thought I had written down but had not, so I had a bureaucrat rename the original Cgtbot account to da:User:CgtbotFejl ("CgtbotError"), and I then created a new account with the name "Cgtbot" on dawiki. Unfortunately, I appear to have accidentially registered the original Cgtbot account on enwiki too, and I just got a message on my bot talk page on dawiki that the dawiki account will be renamed. I would like to have the Cgtbot@enwiki account renamed (CgtbotError is just a suggestion, I don't care what you call it), so the current Cgtbot@dawiki account can become the global Cgtbot account.
