Reason: Username did 0 changes and is inactive for long time. I did many contributions, most of them on Slovak Wikipedia since 2012. My old username was created when I was 11 years old and used on multiple sites, but in Slovak language it may sound childish. Because of this I am changing it everywhere where it is possible to Yanchii. If you will agree with changing it, I thank you in advance.

What is the "standard process" and how do I prove that the target account is my account without being to log into it?
LunaticBFF58 (

20:13, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
@
LunaticBFF58, No need to prove anything. The standard process requires that the requester should be well-established, and the target account shouldn't have any edits (some minor edits are okay). In your case, the former requirement is not met, but the latter is met as the target account has 21 minor edits and has been inactive for the last 2 years. Major edits are in userspace. Therefore, we can usurp it for you. However, as I stated above, we can only do it once your account is well-established. –

Reason: I've been using the signature X everywhere, and I don't like to go by the current name. It resonated with something personal hence I created the account under that name almost 9 years ago. But ever since I started editing regularly, I always used the X signature, and I also wish to change my username as well. The name feels cliche for various personal reasons and I do not like to get reminded of my past which bothers me, unfortunately, every time I visit my user page I get irritated seeing that. It's hard to explain but I hope the reviewer would grant my request.
