Information

You may request a user name change after being a member of this wiki for at least one year. For a capitalization change, you may request one after being a member for at least a month. Only one request may be made for an individual account per year, and only one capitalization change may be made until you request a user name change. You may not request changes for other users.

The user "The ZAC Atac" seems like he wanted to change his name, but instead of requesting a user name change he moved/edited all the pages with his old name with the new name "TheZACAtac". I don't have the Bureaucrat role and Maczkopeti is inactive, so Wiimm, you should decide wether to revert his edits due to not asking for a user name change or change his name. —Atlas (talk) 12:14, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

ok! See his discussion page. -- Wiimm (talk) 18:08, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
Ok, I now understand what to do and I apologize for just changing all my pages instead of requesting a name change. I will change everything back and just wait till July to request a name change because then it will be a year since I signed up. -- TheZACAtac (talk) 19:20, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
It's not only "asking". "The ZAC Atac" and "TheZACAtac" are 2 different accounts. And If I rename it, the login account is also renamed.
Do you want the new name now? (Haven't seen the discussion pages yet)
-- Wiimm (talk) 21:34, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
Sure if that's possible. -- TheZACAtac (talk) 22:50, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
done. Please follow the instructions of above. -- Wiimm (talk) 02:17, 18 March 2017 (UTC)

User:Bri wants a name change to User:Bri-11. Although he/she is fine with the current name, if we had to go with the latter, there would be a bigger problem. Since User:Bri911 is already a user on the Wiiki, this would cause more confusion. I believe that we shouldn't exactly change this name — at least, not yet. --KantoEpic (talk) 03:05, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

JαmεςH not renamed to JamesH: ignored the text that says Once your name has been changed, it is your responsibility to change all links and proceeded to move his pages without permission. —Atlas (talk) – CT/MK8 Wiki Admin 13:46, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

User:Leaf39 wanted to have a de-capitalization change (to "leaf39"), not realizing that they can link their page without any capitalization problems. Renaming the user wouldn't do anything. --KantoEpic (talk) 23:55, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

User:MaximilianoMK wanted to be renamed to User:Maxi_. Due to how underscores are treated as spaces on various wikis (such as this one) with page names, and that a user already went by "Maxi" a long time ago, this name change cannot be done. --KantoEpic (talk) 03:54, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

User:Fatal Error Emily wanted to be renamed to User:Emily. They requested this change within the same day as their account registration; it cannot be done until a year from now. --KantoEpic (talk) 05:41, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

User:OrangeYoshi wanted to be renamed to User:Yoshi. Someone already registered an account using this name in February 2016, so I cannot change it. --KantoEpic (talk) 01:02, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

User:DrFe4rless wanted to be renamed to User:Fear. This cannot be done because their account is not a year old yet. Once it is November 2, then they can be renamed if they wish. --KantoEpic (talk) 20:05, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

User:NikoPlays wanted to be renamed to User:Niko. The name was already taken, so this request cannot be done. --KantoEpic (talk) 04:26, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

User:AlmostTWD98 wanted to be renamed to User:AlmostTWD98>>. ">" is an invalid character, making this request impossible to fulfill. --KantoEpic (talk) 00:57, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

User:Aprotic wanted a decapitalization request. Again, renaming the user does not work because MediaWiki defaults the first letter to be capitalized. However, I did change links to his name to display without the capital letter. --KantoEpic (talk) 14:08, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

Going to wait until later this month to rename User:Riddim GLiTCH to User:GH0STP4WZ. It is a bit too early. --KantoEpic (talk) 05:36, 1 October 2025 (UTC)

User:Questorian wanted to be renamed to User:_jake_. Due to how underscores are treated as spaces on various wikis (such as this one) with page names, and that an account by the name of "Jake" already exists, this name change cannot be done. --JL (talk | contribs) 08:16, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
