Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations: Difference between revisions

"WP:USURP" redirects here. For the guide regarding usurping a page title, see WP:USURPTITLE.

This page was a forum where users could request, and global renamers (including Stewards) familiar with local usurpation guidelines, could consider and carry out, the "usurpation" of usernames primarily held locally. This consisted of renaming an existing account in order to vacate the username and allow another user to take it.

This venue is now closed, and any new usurpation requests should be made at meta:Steward requests/Username changes (see meta:Help:Unified login). If you want your account renamed to a name that is still available, please use Special:GlobalRenameRequest or Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple.

• Reason: This should be the last usurpation for The Wikipedia Adventure. I would like it usurped for User:OcaasiTWA4, not User:Ocaasi. Due to a bug that will take a few weeks to fix, logged out users who go through the tour send messages to User:Null's talk page. Fortunately, User:Null has only 1 edit from 2009. To avoid any problems while the bug is being fixed, I think it'd be simplest if I could make that userspace part of the tour.
