Help talk:Rename User

Renaming Users

In my opinion, Help:Rename User is a better place for this. The main name space should not hold this kind of data.

My name is linked in so many places that it takes up multiple pages in >>What Links Here<<. Is there a quick way to change them? I'd like to know before I attempt a namechange. --ZephyrNidorino (Guilmon35249vr) 03:14, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

This Page Needs to be Checked

This page hasn't been checked in some time. There are still some name changes from a while ago not done. Can someone please change these names? --Cloud Cotni (talk|contribs) 15:37, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

What does it mean at this place? Is it a request for Help:Rename User#Request here? -- Wiimm (talk) 15:17, 18 July 2018 (UTC)

Retroactively Applying Rules

i dont understand why my technical request was denied because of something i did a month after i registered in 2012, when there was no rule for this at the time. half the time i am referenced as zillaspaz anyway, so this would be a perfect excuse to change everything to be more consistent and also make my wiiki name the same thing, since there are still users with different display names on the site

After discussing with Tock two weeks ago, the conclusion will be that you can have a user name change request only once per year. It should definitely be better than only having one permanent name change. --KantoEpic (talk) 04:47, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Disallowed Characters

Can I do what SpyKid did and have a username, but write a seperate username everywhere else? Enjoy Funky Kong dancing and peace! 02:27, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

No. Krummers(#1936) (talk) 06:51, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Why not? Also, I meant I was just adding '>>' to the end of my username. Enjoy Funky Kong dancing and peace! 08:52, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Because you are not allowed to. SpyKid is a special case. Krummers(#1936) (talk) 09:22, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Why is he allowed to? And I've had an account for over a year. Enjoy Funky Kong dancing and peace! 09:47, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

SpyKid is a special case. You are not. Krummers(#1936) (talk) 11:22, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

What do you mean by special case? Enjoy Funky Kong dancing and peace! 11:44, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

I said no. Accept it. Krummers(#1936) (talk) 11:50, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Okay, I'm just wondering. Enjoy Funky Kong dancing and peace! 12:06, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
