Request for Usurpation

[edit]

Hello, Astrohist. A request has been made at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations to usurp, or "take over", your username because another user would like to use it to edit. The changing username guideline allows a username that is not being actively used to be usurped if the user is given an opportunity to object and does not do so.

If you have an email set in your preferences, you should be getting an email from a bureaucrat or changing username clerk explaining how to consent or object to this process.

If you do not object to being renamed to a new username in order for another user to use the name you currently have, please log in and post a reply here saying so (you may also tell us what username you would like to be renamed to, or we will provide you with a generic one).

If you do nothing: the request may be filled shortly, and your account will be moved to a generic username. You may request that it be moved to a new username of your choice at any time.

If you object to being renamed: please log in and make an edit to this page clearly stating that you object to usurpation.

Please note that even if your current username is usurped, you can still edit and your data will not be lost; your preferences, watchlist, and other user settings will be transferred to a new username.

Thank you for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MLGorodetsky (talkcontribs) 20:24, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I object to being renamed, and regard this attempt as offending. I also would like to express my concerns about the policy for usurpation. It should at least changed so that a user has to agree, otherwise it would be possile to usurpate his username in case of a long illness. Or there should be a period of inactivity of 3 years or so before making an usurpation possible. Astrohist (talk) 06:10, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Maurice Loewy may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 11:00, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed
