- I have no connection to that website and I wasn't even aware of its existence. Instead, my suggestion for a new username stemmed from my appeal to the sound of 'masquerade'; since that username is already in use, I took up a punny misspelling of it. I'd happy to take 'masquerade', but I don't know if I'd qualify for that usurpation. On another note, I'd be content with an all-caps version, or a version with a small first letter -- as long as it's not "Masqueraid".

- For bureaucrat use:
rename user
- Reason: Created article in sandbox with title Harry "Harri" Dennis and want to submit for approval, but Harry "Harri" Dennis is showing as user name. Harry Dennis is the person I am writing about. He is not the user. When I started again my user name popped up as the article name. So what do I do? I want my user name DA01 for ongoing use to access my account only, not as an article title. I am new to this and am trying to get it right. I don't think the user name and article name should be the same. Shouldn't the user name and article name be different? I want to keep this name Harry "Harri" Dennis as the article title only, not a user name for my account or subsequent articles. I don't know how to change, switch or move info I wrote in a sandbox to a regular article page. I posted a question on talk, but I think the reason I am not getting a response is because the article is in sandbox. Help. Will the change in username also change for Wikimedia. They are both linked. Thanks.

- The reason it's showing up like that is because you're posting it on your
userpage. Have you tried making the article in actual mainspace (i.e. w/o prefixes before the name)? -
