Can you please change the 'User: Saeed Parto' to User:Shiva Mahbobi'. Can you please let me know when this is going to be changed?

Reason: The current username was used at the time of creation to standardize all login user names. Since then, I've tried to change from that nick to a more matching-of-personality and matching-of-interests nick. Given my affinity for Doctor Who personally, my IRC and Ubuntu Project presence has become that of "The Lord of Time" or similar. Several other sites have this as my username and persona, and I'd like to match up my persona / username on Wikipedia accordingly. TrekCaptainUSA 20:02, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

Can you please change the 'User: Saeed Parto' to User:Shiva Mahbobi'. Can you please let me know when this is going to be changed? This is confusing and people who would search for Shiva Mahbobi would see User: Saeed Parto on top of the article.
