Reason: I wish to change my current user name from WYNP to TheSpencer for a few reasons. First and most importantly, to protect my identity. I've recently come to a lot of heat with my old user name WYNP from personal attacks, spam, and personal harrasment. Although no one has contacted me through information given in my Wikipedia account, I do not wish for them to track me down, as Wikipedia is listed very high up on search engines, and it is very easily found, should someone search for "WYNP". As well, the old user name is a little confusing and to some it may seem like a jumble of letters. I want a user name that is easy to remember, and easy to read; I plan on being an editor on Wikipedia for a long time, and I consider myself to be a very polite and helping person. If by chance in the future people need help, they will be able to remember my name "TheSpencer" much more easily than "WYNP". As a final reason, I believe "TheSpencer" is much more egotistical, and thus portrays my actual egotistical nature. =] Thank you for reading this petition. My apologies for my inability to use paragraphs in this petition. It seems they don't follow the format. WingedYoshi -

Reason: Sorry for the two requests, but after the discussion
here I could not usurp the username Blake. I wish to change the name to keep in line with my toolserver account. Blake- may be similar to Blake, but I think the account is sufficiently old enough for that not to be a problem? I also understand that this will get rid of my SUL, and that is fine. -

Reason: I wish to change my current user name from WYNP to TheSpencer for a few reasons. First and most importantly, to protect my identity. I've recently come to a lot of heat with my old user name WYNP from personal attacks, spam, and personal harrasment. Although no one has contacted me through information given in my Wikipedia account, I do not wish for them to track me down, as Wikipedia is listed very high up on search engines, and it is very easily found, should someone search for "WYNP". As well, the old user name is a little confusing and to some it may seem like a jumble of letters. I want a user name that is easy to remember, and easy to read; I plan on being an editor on Wikipedia for a long time, and I consider myself to be a very polite and helping person. If by chance in the future people need help, they will be able to remember my name "TheSpencer" much more easily than "WYNP". As a final reason, I believe "TheSpencer" is much more egotistical, and thus portrays my actual egotistical nature. =] Thank you for reading this petition. My apologies for my inability to use paragraphs in this petition. It seems they don't follow the format. WingedYoshi -
