Bureaucrat note: I... hrm... I dunno about this one. I don't think it violates any policy per se, but... it doesn't strike me as a good idea. I can see someone getting a bit miffed about it. Is there another name you'd like? Profession-based names are (in my personal opinion) not the best idea, as it (a) can be used to trace your edits back to you in the real world and (b) can change suddenly, which means you'd probably want a rename again.

Not done I love your reason, but as you have virtually no edits, please just discard your current name and register the new one. --

Fair enough...I can't fault your logic...we can't be having people change their names on frisky whims. --

Clerk note: Have you registered this username (Alexandros) at multiple other wikis already? If not, you will have a hard time to create a
single-user login for this name (as it is registered at
many other wikis already). You might want to consider choosing a name that is unique on all projects (use
this tool to check for this). Regards SoWhy 17:21, 23 June 2009 (UTC)reply
Ok, how about Alexandros5 ?, nobody else has it?, is that ok?
The-Real-ZEUS (
talk) 17:39, 23 June 2009 (UTC)reply
Bureaucrat note: Only in one project is Alexandros active (ru.wiki), and that only has 31 edits, all in 2009. None of the other accounts are active, and none ever had any substantial editing. Alexandros will be okay if the en.wiki Alexandros doesn't object within the allotted time. Although it will be a little bit of work to complete the
single-user login, it will be possible.

Clerk note: User has exactly 2 edits, one that was reverted for unexplained removal of content and the second here. I think simply registering the new name is a possible and preferable alternative to renaming. Regards SoWhy 21:24, 23 June 2009 (UTC)reply
Not done Simply register the new name and continue editing using it. --

Bureaucrat note: I... hrm... I dunno about this one. I don't think it violates any policy per se, but... it doesn't strike me as a good idea. I can see someone getting a bit miffed about it. Is there another name you'd like? Profession-based names are (in my personal opinion) not the best idea, as it (a) can be used to trace your edits back to you in the real world and (b) can change suddenly, which means you'd probably want a rename again.
