Reason: My current username is my real name. Unfortunately, this regularly leads to off-wiki harassment with people calling me on the phone or even emailing colleagues (especially those perceived to be my boss). I didn't think this rename could be done as
WP:RENAME says that 50,000 edits is an upper limit, so I already created
User:Guillaume233 and started editing under that name. However,
User:DGG told me that this is not a hard limit and that perhaps it still can be done. I realize that a rename will leave the history of my talk and user pages, meaning that anybody who digs a little bit will find back my real name. However, the kind of people prone to off-wiki harassment are generally not very "wiki-literate", so I don't expect this to be a real problem. Thanks.

Reason: My current username is my real name. Unfortunately, this regularly leads to off-wiki harassment with people calling me on the phone or even emailing colleagues (especially those perceived to be my boss). I didn't think this rename could be done as
WP:RENAME says that 50,000 edits is an upper limit, so I already created
User:Guillaume233 and started editing under that name. However,
User:DGG told me that this is not a hard limit and that perhaps it still can be done. I realize that a rename will leave the history of my talk and user pages, meaning that anybody who digs a little bit will find back my real name. However, the kind of people prone to off-wiki harassment are generally not very "wiki-literate", so I don't expect this to be a real problem. Thanks.

Hi Nihonjoe, I already changed my user name as Martin Silenus in the French Wikipedia. The French bureaucrate told me there was no problem. I'm currently editing articles in French as Martin Silenus (most of them about Pictet Family)... So I think the editor you talk about should be already me
