usernames[edit]
My first name has "jen" in it, my last name has "god" in it, also I'm an atheist. Therefore, NO. jengod 00:58, Mar 26, 2004 (UTC)
vfd[edit]
Dear troll, we apparently have different ideas about what is useful. How about we discuss your p.o.v. on talk pages before you run around nominating everything I've done for deletion. Obscure topics are not necessarily useless. Also, have I offended you in some previous life? jengod 01:03, Mar 26, 2004 (UTC)
warning[edit]
Please stop harassing users. Consider this your first warning. Future acts of harassment may result in the banning of your user name for a length of time. Kingturtle 01:04, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Offensive Username[edit]
Your username contains the term troll in it. That is very defamatory to trolls, as they are all above you. You should change your username immediately, ro I wil have to EXCOMMUNICATE you! muahahaha! ugen64 02:13, Mar 26, 2004 (UTC)
- I was going to do this too, but you beat me to it.... by mere moments. Silly edit confict. Darn you, ugen64!!! :) - Fennec
My concern about your username[edit]
Hello, Troll, and welcome to Wikipedia.
I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?
I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance, your reasons for wanting this particular name.
You have several options freely available to you:
- If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
- If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as asking for a "third opinion", or requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
- You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.
Let me reassure you that my writing here means I don't think your username is grossly, blatantly, or obviously inappropriate; such names get reported straight to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism or blocked on sight. This is more a case where opinions might differ, and it would be good to reach some consensus — either here or at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you again!--U.S.A. cubed 21:30, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed[edit]
Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Troll. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Troll~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Renamed[edit]
This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
