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". Jaakovs ( talk) 15:22, 27 January 2009 (UTC) reply

  • 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.

Jaakovs → MASQUERAID

 Bureaucrat note: I don't see any edits Jaakovs has made that involve issues or discussions at http://masqueraid.livejournal.com/profile . I'd be happy with a simple promise from Jaakovs that MASQUERAID would not be used for commercial or promotional purposes, if indeed Jaakovs runs that livejournal. AS for the all-caps, usernames (such as Brion VIBBER and MONGO) and all-cap signatures ( Little Mountain 5) are in use, so that's not a red flag for me. Kingturtle ( talk) 14:26, 27 January 2009 (UTC) reply
Persuasive. Hope you don't mind, but I'll wait for a third Crat opinion, as it's been suggested in the past that I am a bit quick off the mark when asking for comment. -- Dweller ( talk) 14:33, 27 January 2009 (UTC) reply
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". Jaakovs ( talk) 15:22, 27 January 2009 (UTC) reply
What's the status of this request now? Jaakovs ( talk) 21:19, 27 January 2009 (UTC) reply
 Bureaucrat note:We can't do usernames with a lowercase first letter, ruling out both "masquerade" and "mASQ<whatever>". "Masquerade" is, as you guessed, not an easy option. Where we're at is that I'm inclined to approve your original request, per Kingturtle, but I'm waiting on a third opinion. Is there a rush? There aren't many active Bureaucrats on English Wikipedia. I'll go see if I can rouse one. -- Dweller ( talk) 11:36, 28 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Harry "Harri" Dennis → DA01

  • Current name: Harry "Harri" Dennis ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) ( ping user)
  • Requested name: DA01 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google)
  • 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. Harri ( talk) 06:01, 28 January 2009 (UTC) reply
