Reason: i originally applied for this on 13 july 2021, where
1997kB (
talk·contribs) made a baseless and vacuous (false) allegation that the request was not in earnest. for some reason he failed to comprehend that 'Whigger' is a play on words and deferring to the
Whig Party. he seemed to refuse my request on the basis that apparently this was for reasons outside of my staunch advocacy for the transnational british constitution. what is wrong with that? this modern interpretation should be lauded by wikipedia and seen as far more attractive than the derogatory analog of a Caucasian male impersonating another of African descent. further, my edits on the named account are not at all bad. i've edited and added sources for apollonius, provided an appearance for the edge in the 80s that was sorely absent (myself not having known of this look until about 4-5 months ago) and also some other things that required registration. i do not see how i fail to meet the critieria. cc: @

What does any of that have to do with a rename request? And no, as a "play on words" it's at least in poor taste, and liable to be seen as trolling or offensive. I need not explain why - your justification above makes it clear that your motivations are to exploit a racial insult for a joke. . Acroterion(talk)00:19, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
i have just checked and confirmed, Wigger is not neither a slur or epithet. i believe the confusion here lies with
1997kB (
talk·contribs) and
Acroterion (
talk·contribs) interpreting
Wigger as the analogue to the "n word", which is incorrect. the analogue for "white people" is
Cracker (term), which is correctly designated as a racial epithet and/or slur.
Whigger must therefore be considered as admissible; especially when contrasted to, say, Darknipples. it is like saying the name Buffoon is not an appropriate. some people enjoy light-hearted self-deprecating things. i will actually use this name. otherwise i'll stick to being "IP" there's only one IP star on this website, and everyone knows who it is. even when the numbers change people figure it out fast.

WP:NPOV. wigger is not an insult. it is still used casually but these days there are fewer caucasian people attempting a full-adoption of african culture. i suspect this is partly due to the woeful state of the music that inspired many individuals to become wiggers. either way, a WHIGger is not a WIGGer. it is a play on words and a cool one. sir robert walpole is a G. look at his pose in that painting. it's like he knew he'd be the GOAT (south sea brouhaha aside) 300+ years later. the guy is an inspiration. — Preceding

Reason: I made this account when I was in middle school, and as such picked a pretty puerile username. Henryjos isn't just a cleaner, simpler name that's more consistent with the online persona I'd like to curate--it's also timeless. A dated reference to the forty-ninth NFL championship doesn't stand the test of time. _______ Please also note that, although Henryjos has contributed, they were all within a single-month period over ten years ago to the talk page of a single article. Unless y'all moderators/admins in charge of usurp requests can see that they've logged in recently or anything, I'd argue that the account was created solely for that page and then abandoned. I may not be a prolific editor, but at least I'm still around. I'd love to give Henryjos a second chance at life.

Not done Unfortunately, eligibility for usurpation is determined not just by account inactivity, but also by the significance of the contributions—specifically, whether it would cause any serious licensing issues to usurp the name (for a rough point of reference, if everything a user account made could be classified as a
minor edit, then they can probably be usurped). Talk page discussions can't be considered minor edits. From what I can see, Henryjos is not eligible for usurpation for this reason. —

Not done While the three edits may seem like a small number, they are not insignificant enough that they can be discounted. Accounts are eligible for usurpation if they have either 1) made no edits at all; 2) made only edits that were immediately reverted, such as
vandalism-only accounts; or 3) made only a small number of
minor edits. The edits made here don't qualify under any of these three criteria, so Miiike is unfortunately not eligible for usurpation. —

This account has not made an edit since 2007-06, and has a total of 18 edits in total. I don't want to take that name specifically, but rather "Sir Ross" with a space between the r and R.

Reason: I registered my current account (username Badeayoade) in 2007 and at the time I did not know that my username would be the exact same as my page name, as I was not looking to start a page at the time. The name I want to usurp was registered 4 years ago and is exactly my name in real life and similar to my user name except for the space between both names. Also the name I want to usurp has been banned or restricted due to spamming meaning the owner does not intend to use it for legitimate purposes or is no longer allowed to use it. If granted to me, I guarantee it would be used for legitimate purposes and in conformity with the rules of wikipedia.

I've been an active Wikipedian of good standing since 2018, and a constructive editor. The username I'm seeking to usurp appears to have never been active, with zero activity over several years.

Reason: Recently the editor of a fringe online news site
made a public claim about my account on Twitter after
claiming to reveal another editor's identity. I have, as a result, received an influx of harassment and threats to
dox me to my email and on offsite forums. For this reason, I am hoping to have my username changed to discourage my future detractors as, while the most committed will still be able to determine my new name, many will not put in such effort. I also wish to do this for privacy concerns as I want to disconnect my account from public libel against me using my current username. I am requesting an usurp of the name
Yue, which has two accounts globally on the Chinese and Turkish Wikipedias, but has no significant edits to either. The only edits ever made by the account are
eight edits to the Chinese Wikipedia, all made in 2006.
