{{renameuser2|1=SunStar Net|2=Renamed vandal (random number)}}

• Reason: This is not the real individual who uses that username, and it should be freed up so he can have his existing account named changed to Sunstar Net if he wants to. It also raises privacy issues, since the individual who uses the Sunstar Net name does not want it on the site. The user who created it was a vandal account who knows this user IRL. I am only making this request on his behalf since he can't login to his account (User:Kelsington - the account that wants to be renamed to {{user|Sunstar Net}}) as he's forgotten both his password and email. --1qx (talk) 23:01, 8 May 2008 (UTC) --1qx (talk) 11:14, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

:{{cratnote}} I'm not sure I understand this request. Why are you making this request rather than User:Kelsington and what claim does he have to this name? If Kelsington can't log into his account, renaming him won't help with that. WjBscribe 12:27, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

{{renameuser2|1=Seancb89

}}

• Reason: I tried to create a new account with the name seanbcool. The system automatically capitalized the first letter of my name, which I didn't want. I then tried to create yet another account with the same name but in all capitals (SEANBCOOL). I received a message telling me this name was too similar to "Seanbcool", and only then did I realize that Wikipedia allows users to request a name change. Aside from the change, I also give my permission for Seanbcool to be deleted. There is no activity on the account and no reason for it to exist, and I don't know how to delete accounts.

Note: Seancb89 may or may not be registered to another e-mail address, other than the one Seanbcool is registered to. If it is, it is nonsequiter@hotmail.com rather than seancb89@hotmail.com.

a random request...

[for deletion]

I created the account Gwrila in the Bulgarian wikipedia accidentally at 19:20 on 21 May 2008 and only just noticed (i meant to spell it Gwryla, as my English account is). I then created the bg:Gwryla account also, and please want to ask if you can delete the bg:Gwrila one.

(i have written a deletion request on its talk page, here - and the other account confirms this also: here. The only contributions made by both those accounts are to the actual userpages and talkpages - i don't mind you merging the two accounts' histories into the contribution history for Gwryla - i've left a note on both saying so.)

it simply feels a bit weird knowing there's an account floating out there in cyberspace that'll never be used because it's spelt wrong...and someone else might want to use it in future, anyway. The Gwryla's moral like that, you see [:-)

(there's no 'changе-your-username' option in the Bulgarian wikipedia, we just get transferred to here, as you can [http://bg.wikipedia.org/wiki/Уикипедия:Потребителско_име see for yourselves]).

So, in a word: please delete the :bg:Gwrila account, and leave me the other two, spelt "Gwryla".

Thank you. [:-) Gwryla (talk) 10:29, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

• {{clerknote}}: Accounts cannot be 'deleted' as such, simply renamed, and there is no real harm in simply letting it sit unused as people can simply usurp the account if they want it as it has no edits.
