Reason: My current username is confusing, I had thought about changing for a while but have now decided to go ahead and make the switch, after the most recent incident where the wrong name was added to the checkpage of
WP:NPW because the admin, understandably, didn't notice that the L in my username is actually a capital "i" - I had been taking for granted that people copy and paste usernames. I therefore think it would be better to change it in order to prevent further confusion. I just hope the database doesn't mind reattributing 10k edits. ~ AmeIiorateUTC@ 03:32, 9 September 2008 (UTC)reply

You have already created a SUL. Do note that your SUL will not be name changed, and that you will have to have all your other accounts renamed separately on all the other wikis (from the other edits you made, other wikis entails Commons and Wikiquote). Are you sure you want to continue? bibliomaniac15 05:21, 9 September 2008 (UTC)reply
Yes I do. SUL was one of the reasons I didn't want to do this (and thus delayed it) but I will go ahead with it anyway. ~ AmeIiorateUTC@ 05:27, 9 September 2008 (UTC)reply

Reason: My current username is confusing, I had thought about changing for a while but have now decided to go ahead and make the switch, after the most recent incident where the wrong name was added to the checkpage of
WP:NPW because the admin, understandably, didn't notice that the L in my username is actually a capital "i" - I had been taking for granted that people copy and paste usernames. I therefore think it would be better to change it in order to prevent further confusion.

For bureaucrat use: rename userReason for requested renaming. I just created my account an hour ago with lower case letters as: billyrebel, assuming that a url would be provided. I see that it has been created as: Billyrebel. Please change to Billy Rebel. Thank-You.
Reason: I use username with m at the end everywhere else. My current Wikipedia username confuses me.

With 192k edits, this will be the highest edit count of an account anyone has renamed. The rename function is timing out. I think in your case it might be added to the
job queue. You might probably have to wait for a couple of hours before this is completely processed. I'll ask on IRC.
