== Username change globally for Rohit_klar ==

I requested for changing my user name from Rohit_klar to Rohit_Saxena as I wanted to use my real full name as user. User RohitSaxena is already taken, but I don't see that user active and have zero edits. My request is either allow usurpation of user ID RohitSaxena or allow me to change my user ID to Rohit_Saxena as this is unlikely to cause any conflict since the user doesn't have any edits to their credit.

Username change globally for Rohit_klar

I requested for changing my user name from Rohit_klar to Rohit_Saxena as I wanted to use my real full name as user. User RohitSaxena is already taken, but I don't see that user active and have zero edits. My request is either allow usurpation of user ID RohitSaxena or allow me to change my user ID to Rohit_Saxena as this is unlikely to cause any conflict since the user doesn't have any edits to their credit.

Username change for Giacontigers

Is Alextigers available?

Melbourne Tigers username was a mistake, but I only wanted to use NBL because it’s one of my favourite passions. I understand it’s a business name with nbl included. Alextigers is fine, if not just let me know, thanks and I’ll adjust number if need be. 175.39.76.81 11:48, 14 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

First, Alextigers is not available for usurpation: They has too many edits and seems to remain active. Second, you need to log in to your account before requesting for renaming. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 16:12, 14 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Usurping globally locked user

Hello, I am considering to create a bot named AshleyBot in Korean Wikipedia but Ashleybot is already created by someone else and it is currently globally locked by a Korean steward Sotiale. Since lowercase Ashleybot has no edits, is it possible for me to usurp that username and create account as AshleyBot? Kind regards, Jerrykim306 (talk) 13:48, 19 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Probably yes, given the account was locked as a spambot and has no edit (confirmed via LWCU I guess?). NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 17:12, 19 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
You need to be clear whether you want to use AshleyBot or Ashleybot. I don't like usurping of locked accounts, this is because CA's account log is not moved together as far as I remember. If you want to use AshleyBot, I will help with that, but if you want to usurp Ashleybot, further discussion will be needed. --Sotiale (talk) 12:45, 20 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Sotiale: Thanks, I am intended to use "AshleyBot" (Capital letter) as I mentioned yesterday (with B as a capital letter). Jerrykim306 (talk) 13:46, 20 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
