- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user, rename user
- Datestamp: 01:43, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: I created this account from my school computer towards the end of last school year. Since then, I have lost the password to that account and have tried doing password resets. Since that account was created on a school computer, I can't reset the password because my school does not allow emails from addresses outside the school org to enter our inboxes. Even though this account has no contribs, I still would like to get my normal username back. I affirm that I am the original creator and sole owner of this account. Electrabytes04 (talk) 01:43, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
- Note:
- The target username meets the requirements for usurpation.
- The current owner of the target username does not have an email address specified.

Requesting user has 1 undeleted edit and 1 deleted edit, for a total of 2 edits. An SUL account (primary enwiki) exists for the requesting user, with 2 total edits on 3 wikis. AnomieBOT⚡ 01:49, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
- Not done We don't have any proof that the target account belongs to you, so we can't proceed with the usurpation right now. Usurpation requests are typically granted to well-established users, so you can submit a new request in future once you have at least 400 edits. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:28, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
DirectXMan → DirectXMan12
Status: Not done
- Current username: DirectXMan (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (ping user)
- Target username: DirectXMan12 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · target logs · block log · list user · global contribs · central auth · Google) (advise user)
- Previous renames: current user, target user, Queue: open req, closed req
- For renamer use: Email target username, usurp user, rename user
- Datestamp: 10:27, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: DirectXMan12 is my handle everywhere these days, and has been for quite some time. it's unclear to my why i didn't use the `12` 16 years ago when creating this account, but i can likely find evidence my use of that handle back then. i strongly suspect that the existing empty "DirectXMan12" account was also me some 12 years ago, but password resets no longer show up on any email address i have access to, so i cannot access it. On the off chance that "DirectXMan12" was not registered by me, i would like to ensure that it cannot be used to impersonate me. if needed, i can provide ample evidence of my use of "DirectXMan12" elsewhere (email addresses, handles on social media, etc).. DirectXMan12 (talk) 10:27, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

- Hi @DreamRimmer, I understand your reaction thanks for taking the time to look at my request. I've been contributing without an account and just registered this account. I wanted the username Elphie but picked ElphieW to be as close to that name as I could. I'd rather change my username at the beginning than at a point when I am a 'well-established user' since at this point it will be less confusing to have my name changed.
- I'm not going to share my anonymous edits - for privacy reasons - but I assure you that I am a well-established user, just not under a registered account yet. Would you please reconcider your decision based on this extra information? Thank you very much in advance. ElphieW (talk) 14:57, 30 January 2025 (UTC)
