Reason: I didn't choose a good username. I wanted to post about the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard trial, and picked a random username.

Reason: Per "personal preference" - I would simply prefer another username as I have grown tired with my current one. "Eem dik doun in toene" simply means "barbequing" in the
Gronings dialect, so it's not really a harmful name:)

Reason: I've requested a username change recently. Got positive reply from admins but the name was already taken, hence requesting a new one.
SnehaRaphael1996 (
talk) 20:36, 7 May 2022 (UTC)reply
Reason: Just because of user preference, as well as for anonymity since my username contains a nickname that I use. The new username is a reference to a Bob Dylan song.

Nihonjoe:Well, to be honest, I have no idea what this even means. I tried merging by using the link you provided. I got a textbox telling me my accounts were merged. When I click the "unattached accounts"-link that takes med to the "global account information"-page, it tells me I have 30 attached accounts, and then it lists them up. By the way, why are there so many accounts? For example, I see pl.wikipedia, es.wikipedia and sr.wikipedia, but I speak not polish, nor spanish or serbian. In addition, when I click the different links on the global account information-page (for example sv.wikipedia.org), it tells me that a user with my name does not exist.

Reason: Normally, I would have wanted to register with the username, "Clarence Oddbody". However, I can't get it because this username has similarities to "Clarenceoddbody". Since this is not a usurpation request, I am adding my request here. I would also like to mention that I have already an account—called
Victor Trevor. Thank you.
