- Reason: I have had a curious mishap. Seems like I've been inadvertently using two accounts with the same username, only diferring in capitalization, a problem that originated in Wikipedia letting me register two different accounts to the same email address. I have been actively using both accounts in two different PCs and would like to move over to using only 'UKER', but I obviously don't want to lose track of my contributions. Can you do this while reassigning all my contributions to the new account? Thanks in advance.

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

Decline then, OK, forget the idea then. Don't want to cause any server trouble. The next time somebody says I'm lazy and do little to improve this site tell em I couldn't change my user name because it is embedded in too many articles!! I'll have to build a Buddhist meditation chamber in my volcano with panoramic scenery of mountains then. I'm happy then to pretend it is still the swinging 60s and the war is still a Cold one then...
