        • Yes, I and User:Apollo Augustus Koo are the same person, I want to rename Apollo Augustus Koo to 蘇州宇文宙武. Can you delete 蘇州宇文宙武 then move Apollo Augustus Koo to 蘇州宇文宙武? -- Apollo Augustus Koo ( talk) 03:06, 27 June 2009 (UTC) reply
  •  Clerk note: No, because then the edits you made as 蘇州宇文宙武 until now will be lost. You can have that one renamed to something else, then rename Apollo Augustus Koo to 蘇州宇文宙武 but I'd say it's easier if you simply used 蘇州宇文宙武 from now on and have a link on your userpage informing people that you have previously used "Apollo Augustus Koo" as a username. As Chris says, there is no way of merging both users and as such, any renaming is quite unnecessary. Regards So Why 19:41, 27 June 2009 (UTC) reply

The old account has approx. 6,500 edits. The new one has approx. 1,700 edits (that's the one I'm posting from now). The reason I ask is because Wikipedia:Requests for administrator attention says this is the place to "Reassign edits or make name changes." Maybe that's a remnant from the distant past (when IP edits could be reassigned to a user name).
It's my own fault, I know. So, if it ain't possible to reassign the edits, I'll just have to live with it. Thanks. --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid ( coṁrá) 10:16, 23 July 2009 (UTC) reply

This may seem strange - I don't know what software you have - but would it be possible to assign both to a new account (i.e. "simultaneously" reassign edits from the old account and the current account to a wholly new account)?

        • Yes, I and User:Apollo Augustus Koo are the same person, I want to rename Apollo Augustus Koo to 蘇州宇文宙武. Can you delete 蘇州宇文宙武 then move Apollo Augustus Koo to 蘇州宇文宙武? -- Apollo Augustus Koo ( talk) 03:06, 27 June 2009 (UTC) reply
  •  Clerk note: No, because then the edits you made as 蘇州宇文宙武 until now will be lost. You can have that one renamed to something else, then rename Apollo Augustus Koo to 蘇州宇文宙武 but I'd say it's easier if you simply used 蘇州宇文宙武 from now on and have a link on your userpage informing people that you have previously used "Apollo Augustus Koo" as a username. As Chris says, there is no way of merging both users and as such, any renaming is quite unnecessary. Regards So Why 19:41, 27 June 2009 (UTC) reply

The old account has approx. 6,500 edits. The new one has approx. 1,700 edits (that's the one I'm posting from now). The reason I ask is because Wikipedia:Requests for administrator attention says this is the place to "Reassign edits or make name changes." Maybe that's a remnant from the distant past (when IP edits could be reassigned to a user name).
It's my own fault, I know. So, if it ain't possible to reassign the edits, I'll just have to live with it. Thanks. --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid ( coṁrá) 10:16, 23 July 2009 (UTC) reply

This may seem strange - I don't know what software you have - but would it be possible to assign both to a new account (i.e. "simultaneously" reassign edits from the old account and the current account to a wholly new account)?
