=== Freddie ===
* Current Name: {{Rename|Freddie}}
* New Name: {{Userlinks-short|pialpha1}}
* Matches my discord username, is less confusing and I prefer it

=== Karmasdoor ===
* Current Name: {{Rename|Karmasdoor}}
* New Name: {{Userlinks-short|ronan.outoftime}}
* This is a username that I don't use anymore, and I find it easier to simply request a change rather than creating an entirely new account.

=== Giantplaytime ===
* Current Name: {{Rename|Giantplaytime}}
* New Name: {{Userlinks-short|OcttKing}}
* (OcttKing not OctoKing) A while time ago the amazing Chat GPT was announced and went viral. Giantplaytime is 13 letters so many things including Splatoon only allows 10 letters or 12 letters so I shorten it to GPT (-G-iant-P-lay-T-ime) now with chat gpt I hated being confused with the new AI so I brainstormed and figured it would be best if I changed it to OcttKing Shortened from Octarian King and a unique name in that I changed most of the active usernames, And at that time I wasn't active here (also I couldn't find how to change it) But look at me now active as ever!

Overview

This is the Requests for Rename page. Archived requests can be found here. The rename policy is as follows:

Requirements

  • The account can only be renamed once every 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.
  • The new name is not too similar to another editor's username.
  • The new name should not be inappropriate, at the discretion of an administrator.

Process

To file a new request or nomination, please fill out the following form and place it at the bottom of this page in the 'Current requests' section:

=== YourUsername ===
* Current Name: {{Rename|YourUsername}}
* New Name: {{Userlinks-short|YourNewName}}
* Reason: Reason for changing your name.
 
~~~~ 
  • Replace YourUsername with your current username, and YourNewName with your desired username.
  • 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.
  • Old requests are archived here.

Current requests

Below is a list of all of the current rename applications. Click here to add an application.

Randomnamehere

  • Current Name: Randomnamehere (talk | contribs | rename)
  • New Name: Random (talk | contribs | logs)
  • Reason: My name is usually shortened to this anyway, and Random is a lot better than Randomnamehere in my own opinion, I like it more. I only use Randomnamehere on websites i'm not familiar with, so I think it would make more sense that now my name is corrected.
