@Thehedgh0g: It doesn't matter if similar accounts are stewards/admins/crats or not. They have edits (one even >100 and lastly auto-created account on enwiki in 2019) and that's an issue. IMHO you should choose a different username. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 03:25, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

@Phac Wait until tomorrow, in case you find another better name or changed your mind. —MdsShakil (talk) 11:57, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
@MdsShakil: The name is simple, just includes "plantae" (botany, my major) and "st" – stands for "studio". Well, it's not a meaningless name either. I think I've thought it through, I'll wait until tomorrow. Phac (talk) 12:05, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

  • Sorry but usurpation is a option for "users who have notable contributions on wikis". So I decline your request. Regards. Vincent Vega msg? 19:35, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
    Apologies for the delayed response; I didn't get any notification. Are you saying that my are not presently notable enough to be able to usurp that account? I don't have any problem with that answer, I just want to make I understood you correctly. Ruryanov (talk) 17:40, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Not done, chosen username give the incorrect impression that the account is officially affiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation or Wikipedia. You have need to choose another name. —MdsShakil (talk) 11:14, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

I will check. You can check also on XTools. I will inform you. Vincent Vega msg? 22:25, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
Thanks, I've just checked XTools. I would really like the username Atlas which has a few live edits, but is a sockpuppet account, would it be possible to have this one, please? If not, as a second preference, I'd like the username Olympian. Many thanks – Nunuxxx (talk) 02:01, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
@Nunuxxx: "Olympian" is usurpable. Not Atlas sorry. You can change above the name and note here. Thanks! Vincent Vega msg? 20:41, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
@Vincent Vega: I've changed the above to "Olympian", thanks again. – Nunuxxx (talk) 00:24, 9 August 2022 (UTC)

Nicolabel

Ciao @Nicolabel: Purtroppo Argeste ha contributi validi (immagini caricate ancora esistenti). Purtroppo non è possibile usurparlo in questi casi, in realtà le vecchie policy di commons (non più in vigore) consentono di farlo - in presenza di contributi validi - solo e soltanto in caso di consenso esplicita da parte dell'utente, soprattutto per mantenere la paternità dei contenuti. Se vuoi potremmo provare a contattarlo ma temo che, non essendo più attivo, non risponderà mai! Il mio consiglio è quello di selezionare un altro nome utente (o di inserire dei numeri in modo che differisca leggermente). Fammi sapere come intendi procedere. Superpes15 (talk) 12:42, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
I also ask @1997kB and Vincent Vega: for an opinion. I noticed that there are very few edits and the images are not used in the ns0 on wiki (except for an image that was not uploaded by them and originally it was on dewiki). Can we usurp in these cases iyho? Thanks Superpes15 (talk) 15:37, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
@Superpes15: In my opinion we should not get this user’s edits enough notable for avoiding usurpation. Account used for only 6 hours. Regards. Vincent Vega msg? 18:13, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
@Vincent Vega: Looking back, this is my thought too, and no photos they uploaded are used. I don't think there is any copyright issue here. Superpes15 (talk) 10:54, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
Putting  On hold until 12 September (waiting also for other opinions) --Superpes15 (talk) 19:48, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
@Superpes15 I'd say go with it, given that user requesting is a well-established user and the files are not used but I'll note that this is a special case and the reason only apply for this request. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 02:52, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

@MdsShakil: Hi, there is a little problem. Can you make a global replace for User:P.T.Đ/TwinkleMobile.js to User:Phac/TwinkleMobile.js on user's JavaScript pages. TwinkleMobile is an userscript used in many wikis, like enwiki, viwiki... Phac (talk) 07:00, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
@Phac I have no permission to edit others user js pages, you may post this request at SRM. —MdsShakil (talk) 07:08, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

 On hold until 4 September, user also notified via email —MdsShakil (talk) 07:28, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
This user was not opposed this usurp in talk pages or email but I have found that they are auto create their accounts on wikidata and commons in 3 August. Is this account is usurped? @1997kB, Superpes15, Vincent Vega what is yours opinions? —MdsShakil (talk) 02:59, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
@MdsShakil I've had this before. What I did was gave another notification via email and talk page and waited 15 more days. Give them link to their talk page in email and instructions on how they could stop the rename if they wanted to. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 04:07, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
@1997kB I have sent them another notification on talk pages and email also. Let's wait more 15 days —MdsShakil (talk) 04:18, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

KingisNitro to usurp Kormi

Not done KingisNitro This account has made edits recently, which means this is an active account and it is not available for usurp. MetaWiki says they are not registered because they did not create an account in Meta. —MdsShakil (talk) 19:51, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for the response! How long would an account need to be dead to be up for usurpation? KingisNitro (talk) 19:54, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

New Account to Usurp 911

The above is true. HouseBlaster (talk) 17:26, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
 Strong oppose as proposed. This would make people expect Special:EmailUser/911 to go to the same place as Special:EmailUser/Emergency, when it would not. But I like the general idea! If this is to be done, the new User:911 account should be given to someone at T&S. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 05:35, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
Very good point. I have reached out to T&S; we shall see what they say. I do think leaving the talk page message would be beneficial, to get the 30 day clock started. If this usurpation happens, I would not redirect the userpage and would consent to usurpation by T&S, which would eliminate the wait time. However, I am also fine with this being closed as {{not done}}. HouseBlaster (talk) 20:22, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
Hi there, just to confirm we did receive the email, and discussed this internally. We're declining at this time, since the account might imply that emailing it may reach actual US law enforcement, which is not the case. It is also an emergency number in only one part of the world, and we have no plans to also use e.g. 000, 999, 112... for the same purpose. I hope that makes sense. :) Joe Sutherland (Wikimedia Foundation) (talk) 23:12, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
