INK:RENAME

Inkipedia has the capability of renaming editors' usernames. However this should be done in a formal and transparent manner to prevent abuse or spam.

Requirements

  • The user may not submit more than one request in six months.
  • The account cannot have more than 10 000 edits.
  • The user is not seeking the rename to conceal or obfuscate bad conduct.
  • The new name is not already registered on the wiki, or is too similar to another editor's username already in-use.
  • The new name should not be inappropriate, at the discretion of an administrator.

Process

  • New requests should be made at Inkipedia:Requests for Rename.
  • An admin will look through the request and either accept or decline it.
    • Declined requests will be given a reason.
  • After a request is accepted, a Bureaucrat will have a final say and carry out the rename.
