- I rename User:Nja to User:Nja (usurped).

I use this name in the German and Swedish Wiki. I think - not really sure - that I created the account at the English Wikipedia in 2007 too. But it could be done without an e-mail or the account is not existing longer and the password forgotten. Furthermore there is no activity to find for this account.
Therefore I would like to ask to assign this account to me.

In addition, this discussion may also be relevant here.

- WP:BN#Username changes and accounts on other wikis at the moment about whether a request such as yours should be granted. Since there is an active user with edits on the Spanish Wikipedia, this request might be denied by our bureaucrats. Regards SoWhy 17:44, 5 January 2010 (UTC)]
- Thanks, it's an odd concern. The issue is that someone from the Spanish WP Speedo might at some future point fancy usurping the English WP Speedo account (for which no SUL exists). If someone on yet another language WP has a Speedo account the same logic would apply and the Spanish WP Speedo would have a usurp rejected too, guaranteeing that no usurp could ever be allowed. This seems somewhat flawed logic, particularly as "first come first served" might be a fairer approach... I wonder if I asked the Spanish WP Speedo if they had any possible interest if that would solve the issue?—Speedoguy (talk) 08:20, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- I have raised the question for es:user:Speedo, see diff, in order to address the possible concern. Thinking through the usurp guidance, I would have thought that if the user does not reply within a reasonable period (7 days perhaps) that a tacit disinterest could be assumed. Happy to take advice, or be told I'm wasting my time, without taking it personally.—Speedoguy (talk) 08:40, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- Checking the global contributions, I note that Speedo accounts exist and have contributed for Finnish, German, Polish and Vietnamese as well as the aforementioned Spanish account. These are obviously not all the same user so in this case it would never be possible for a SUL to work globally for the name Speedo so the concern seems moot and first-come-first-served still looks like the fairest option here, particularly as I'm not interested in a SUL (and have made more contributions than any of the aforementioned users).—Speedoguy (talk) 12:26, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

- Hey, before you write "Not done" below this just please take the time to read this feeble plea of mine; then you can go ahead and write "Not done" as you wish. Fair enough? Thanks.
- I've found this account, after wondering if it had been created so I could take the opportunity to rename myself into User:Wikipede (though I am not trying to objectify Mountainwriter for the sake of a name, his contributions are valuable in nature). Even more puzzling is the fact that User:Wikipedian, which on a far larger scale represents Wikipedians was not indef-blocked for this kind of thing; albeit the user admittedly "parking" the username with only one edit by the user to their own userpage. (Further investigation shows that a usurpation of that account was denied in the past, which is just how this may probably end nonetheless; you may reject this per their criteria. I thought it couldn't hurt to try though.)
- So I've gone to Wikipe-tan's article, which states that she's a "community mascot"; so by usurping this username I may be making an unintentional misrepresentation, as in declaring myself "official", which I do not desire to do.
- Yes, I know I may be making a big deal out of this, as if this usurpation was blown-up to some request for permissions or something. And I am aware odds are against me in this situation, it may cause a few inconveniences, clogging a few tubes here and there. I'm not hiding that.
- In addition, I am also willing to relinquish my hold on my current SUL. If this usurpation is carried out I will immediately request for a steward to delete my SUL.
- In conclusion- I'm just a puny rollbacker... if you just let it be and give me the account, I'll continue my job and strive to improve. If you don't, heck, I wasn't begging anyone for anything, it won't dampen my interest, I'll shut up and go back to my rollbacking and page patrolling, content and all the same. :D Many thanks and warm regards, ♠ 12:27, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Tim Thomason 07:52, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
"Tim Thomason" was my previous User name on Wikipedia (and several other Wikimedia groups) prior to April 2007. Due to unknown causes, I was unable to sign in with my old password on any of those sites. After several exhaustive methods trying to remedy the situation (mainly via chat with Wikia and Wikipedia folk), I gave up and just adopted my current username for any uses on Wikipedia.
I have felt that usurpation was unlikely in the past due to the fact that "User:Tim Thomason" did not have a confirmed e-mail in the past. However, that "User:Tim Thomason" has claimed to be an editor on several other Wikia wikis, and the e-mail on Wikia and Memory Alpha matches with the current one for "User:Tim Thomasons Temporary Username" (as detailed on the User:Tim Thomason page).--Tim Thomason 07:52, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

I agree with above request as I created that account back in 2008 and already own that same name Wbenton name on Wikicommons.
- Note:
What's the ordeal here? It's been almost a month... well over 7 days. I can logon to commons.wikimedia using my wbenton account, but when I come over here, I'm only remembered as an IP address and not a logged in member. Wikipedia "wbenton", Wikipedia "wbenton-test" and commons.wikimedia "wbenton" are all one and the same user... so what's the hold up?

"Anunnaki" (and "Anunnakki" when the single-K version was taken) are user names I used all across the internet, but I am now in the process of phasing this out in exchange for one I feel is more appropriate for me. One's values and philosophies change over time, and it is now time for me to shed old aliases that reflect old beliefs. The target user name was created several years ago, and does not have any edits on any Wikimedia projects, so I would like to take it over.

Please Help.

Hi, the user you are talking about Nomadz (talk · contribs), existed in English wiki for 12 minutes in 2005, did five edits, just tow of them were on (one) article page, and to be precise he wrote three words : was, Island and Portugal. (Special:Contributions/Nomadz). I think that this applies to me : .. although rare exceptions are made where old edits do not require attribution under the GFDL .. for now, I have more than 260 contribs on many wikis, and I want to help on this one too, without having to play with tow accounts Please reconsider your decision.

I have also tried to e-mail the target user but there is no e-mail associated with this account. This account has just been sitting here, we need to give it to someone who actually wants to edit Wikipedia.

Samini (talk) 16:42, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
I am the same user as SaMi. I originally created the username SaMi in the English Wikipedia myself as I used it in the Finnish Wikipedia. I never used the English account and forgot the password. I'm currently using "SaMi" in all other Wikimedia projects, including Commons. Samini is an alternative account that I originally created in Commons because I thought I couldn't have SUL because of the conflict here in English Wikipedia. Please perform the usurpation so that I can use SaMi here as well. --Samini (talk) 16:42, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

I'm requesting usurpation of the account Grunny after I was advised that this may be possible in borderline cases like this. I'm a long-time Wiki user but only recently started editing on Wikimedia. I have however, been registered under the user name Grunny since 2005 on

I am Utar from cs_wiki and I would like to make a global login.
I have done some contributions on dewiki, sk_wiki and cs_commons too. Accounts named Utar on en_, pl_, uk_ and zh_wikis aren`t mine but they hardly have contributions (I will apply for their usurpations for joining of them to my global account later on their wikis). So I created account Utar_cs to be able to request for this usurpation.

I'm aware there are edits on the other account but it hasn't been used for 4 years and the only wiki edit was to turn a word into a wikilink, so no content has been added other than to the userpage. People get us confused as I sign in the lowercase because the uppercase looks too aggressive. When I signed up 4 years ago I never really gave it a thought so if it is possible to take over the unused friendlier spelling that would be great.
