Wikibooks:Requests for renaming/2007/December

Please change my name
Can a bureaucrat please help? I would like to have my name changed into Edmundwoods, as per English Wikipedia, Malay Wikipedia and Meta-Wiki. Thanks a lot! --Edmund the King of the Woods! 16:01, 1 December 2007 (UTC)


 * To start this process, please make an edit under your Wikipedia account to your talk page which confirms your identity. Thanks. -within focus 02:43, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Why it is important to use Wikipedia to confirm my identity? I only mean that I've done the same process in those places, and to meet the m:Help:Unified login. Btw my userpage in English Wikipedia has a userbox that links to my userpage here. --Edmund the King of the Woods! 11:13, 2 December 2007 (UTC)


 * We want to make sure that you are the same user on these projects, because of the upcoming single-user-login. If you aren't the same person, but you have the same username as another user, it could cause a problem. We won't rename anybody to a name that is registered and in active use at another project, in general. We just want to make sure that this is your username, and not somebody elses that you are trying to steal. I'm sorry if it's a hassle, but it's what needs to be done. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 17:02, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your concern. But anyway, my userpage here has a userbox to my userpage there, and there has a userbox that links to my userpage here. I think this is enough. :-) --Edmund the King of the Woods! 15:01, 3 December 2007 (UTC)


 * ✅. I checked the page history, and you are indeed the same person. I've changed your account name to User:Edmundwoods. I have also sent you a confirmation email about this. Let me know if there are any problems. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 16:50, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

username change request
I am N on every other project (see w:User:N) but I could not create the name here because it is too similar to existing name User:N.. Since the other user is not active no confusion would be created. Nard 21:57, 2 December 2007 (UTC)


 * To start this process, please make an edit under your Wikipedia account to your talk page (stating that you want a Wikibooks rename) which confirms your identity. Thanks. -within focus 23:16, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you! A note has been added to w:User talk:N. Nard 01:45, 3 December 2007 (UTC)


 * ✅. I have renamed you to User:N in response to the confirmation on WP. You didn't have an email address specified, so I could not send a confirmation. You can log into your account with your new username and your old password. Let me know if there are any problems. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 16:55, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Username change request
The following new request was put in the archives rather than here by Missingno000 

I wish to change my username to CJMiller, to allow nomenclaturial conformity across all Wikimedia projects. CJ Miller. (That's my name.Don't wear it out.) 20:20, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Hello CJMiller, how are you? I assume that you are the same w:en:User:CJMiller on wikipedia? Before we can rename you, You need to make an edit to your wikipedia user talk page, using that screenname, declaring that you are who you say you are and that you want your account to be renamed here on Wikibooks. This is an easy way to confirm that you are the same people, and that there is not going to be a username conflict. Let us know when it happens.--Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 01:04, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
