Username change

modifier

Hi Chaoborus! I have a question. When I logged in with my new username, the MediaWiki created (automatically) an account with that name here on French Wikipedia too (User:Ryoga Godai). However, I wanted to rename myself (Novice7) to Ryoga Godai to connect my accounts using SUL. Do I have to post a usurp request now? Or would a simple rename work?

Since the account Ryoga Godai (d · c · b) exists now on fr.wikipedia, we got to rename it to free its name, and then rename Novice7 to Ryoga Godai. But is this worth it ? The account Novice7 (d · c · b) has only 4 edits, none of them seems very precious : you can just dump it (we can block it, if you feel bad about sock-puppets) and use your unified account Ryoga Godai instead.
(But if you make an Usurpation request + , we'll do it, of course  .)

Thanks for replying. Well, I can use the new account, but I'd like to preserve those edits. I hope you don't mind if I post a usurp request :) Novice7 (discuter) 3 juin 2014 à 14:34 (CEST)Répondre
But I have a question. I have to first create a confirmation on my home wiki (en.wiki) and then post a request here? Should I just list the new name I want? Will my current name be changed to that and user page moved? Novice7 (discuter) 3 juin 2014 à 14:39 (CEST)Répondre
  Don't bother. This is OK for me. • Chaoborus 3 juin 2014 à 23:23 (CEST)Répondre
