„We are sorry to announce that Global User Account Merges are not possible as the UserMerge extension is incompatible with CentralAuth. As such, we will not accept any request to merge user accounts as it is technically impossible at this moment to do so.“ Neriah - 💬 - 12:07, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Status:    Not done

--KopiHangat (talk) 16:37, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

  Not done A user can be blocked for any reason at any time, but that doesn't mean their legitimate contributions in the past are invalidated. The target account has valid contributions and is subject to a global community ban, so this username cannot be usurped. —MdsShakil (talk) 16:45, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
@MdsShakil okay, thank a lot for your attention. KopiHangat (talk) 16:52, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
@KopiHangat, you usurped your current username just a month ago. Please wait for six months before submitting any other simple rename or usurpation request, as we only approve requests from the same user after six months from their last rename. – DreamRimmer (talk) 17:38, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Ennuified

Status:    Not done

--Ennuified (talk) 20:33, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

@Ennuified, you made only three edits in 2024, and this level of activity is insufficient to usurp this username for you. We prefer to grant usurpation requests to established and active users to ensure that usurped names are actually used. Therefore, I suggest you re-submit your request after one or two months of regular editing. Thanks. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:19, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
Understood, thanks. Would that entail "bumping" this request or just posting a new one eventually? Ennuified (talk) 03:27, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
You'll need to submit a new request. – DreamRimmer (talk) 10:44, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
  Not done for now. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:47, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Status:    Not done
@KopiHangat Antispoof error: Usernames cannot contain the character \"🤭 (U+1F92D)\" because it is an unknown character. —MdsShakil (talk) 17:04, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
@MdsShakil and @Neriah what about them? user:😂 and user:❤️ KopiHangat (talk) 19:32, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
No. Emoji cannot be used as a username. Neriah - 💬 - 19:34, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
what if I take over the name? KopiHangat (talk) 19:39, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
Is there a policy that strictly regulates it? If I can't, why can they? KopiHangat (talk) 19:35, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
please answer and don't close it yet! thanks KopiHangat (talk) 19:42, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
Technically, we can't change the username to an emoji. They created the account from scratch under that name, apparently it's technically possible. I don't really understand it, maybe others understand more and can explain better. Neriah - 💬 - 19:45, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your attention. KopiHangat (talk) 19:48, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
I clicked on 'rename user' to check for errors, but I ended up renaming the user directly without any technical issues. While it's technically possible, we usually avoid renaming users to emojis because it might make communication difficult and cause confusion. Since it was accidental, I'm ready to revert it. Alternatively, if @MdsShakil and @Neriah are okay with it, we can leave it as it is. – DreamRimmer (talk) 03:44, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Strange, it was written to me that it was an invalid character.
@KopiHangat Have another username you want, other than emojis? If so, it would be good to change your username to it. Neriah - 💬 - 07:43, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
@Neriah I think that's enough 🤭 (talk) 08:03, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
The problem is that your current username makes communication with you difficult. Instead of returning the username to the previous name, I suggest you choose another name.
Is there a name you want, or shall we go back to the previous one? Neriah - 💬 - 08:34, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
@Neriah nothing difficult, auto tag and i understand your intentions, but for now i think that's enough. you can close this request 🤭 (talk) 09:32, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
@🤭 Currently, the username will be reverted to its previous name. Is this acceptable to you? Neriah - 💬 - 09:49, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Of course I can't accept it 🤭 (talk) 10:17, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
if that is done it will be an abuse of your rights, because I do not agree. and I did not violate any policies. that's just your perspective. 🤭 (talk) 10:23, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your attention, I think that's enough 🤭 (talk) 10:25, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
I will not change the username back without permission from another friend. But, since this username makes it difficult to talk to you, I would not approve the request from the beginning, and therefore I support returning the name to the previous name (provided the user does not choose another name he wants).
But as mentioned, I will not make a change according to my own opinion without the consent of another global renamer. Neriah - 💬 - 13:51, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
I agree, the rename should be reverted or the account renamed. - FlightTime (open channel) 15:43, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
As the renamer says this was done in error by them, they should revert it. U+1F92D is quite a disruptive username too. — xaosflux Talk 18:35, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Ping to @DreamRimmer — xaosflux Talk 18:36, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
The rename has been reversed. – DreamRimmer (talk) 20:03, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
@DreamRimmerThe return was not with my approval, instead I wanted to replace it. please review again.thanks KopiHangat (talk) 00:52, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
@Xaosfluxthis request is not an error. KopiHangat (talk) 00:45, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
said without any problem KopiHangat (talk) 00:47, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
@Xaosflux So far there is no policy regulating the use of emoji names. or does it exist? Can you as a bureaucrat declare me a violation? KopiHangat (talk) 00:49, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
