Requests for Rename:

Overview

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

Requirements

• Accounts may only be renamed once every year—including from account creation.
• Accounts may only be renamed twice.
• The user is not seeking the rename to conceal or obfuscate bad conduct.
• The new name is not already registered on the wiki, or too similar to another editor's username.
• The new name should not be inappropriate, at the discretion of an administrator.
• The new name must be within 2-32 characters.

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 for changing your name.
 
~~~~ 

• Replace YourUsername with your current username, and YourNewName with your desired username.
• An administrator or bureaucrat 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.

Renaming user page:

{{shortcut|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. Account renaming should be kept to a minimum, as a formal procedure. It is not something that should be taken or used casually.

Requirements

• The account can only be renamed once every year—including from account creation.
• Accounts may only be renamed twice.
• The user is not seeking the rename to conceal or obfuscate bad conduct.
• The new name is not already registered on the wiki, or too similar to another editor's username.
• The new name should not be inappropriate, at the discretion of an administrator.
• The new name must be within 2-32 characters.

Process

• New requests should be made at Inkipedia:Requests for Rename.
• An administrator or bureaucrat 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.
