- I don't see what any issue would be here. He wants the name “לערי ריינהארט” - it‘s a simple copy-paste. And redirects are created automatically during renames, so unless you delete them when renaming, that’s a non-issue. Jon Harald Søby ( talk) 10:53, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Bureaucrat note: I'm conscious that renames to non-latin usernames have been declined in the past - see

[4] - and a
related discussion at the Bureaucrat noticeboard. I'm a little reluctant to unilaterally change the approach to these and find
Cecropia's argument quite persuasive. Given the inconvenience likely to be caused to other users, are renames to non-latin names desirable?

- I generally agree with you. The only counter argument is single user login which may or may not happen. Secretlondon ( talk) 20:52, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
- I have no objection to this. Unicode fonts are daily more common; copy-and-paste is easy enough. Surely Gangleri will be considerate enough to make the transliteration clear (perhaps in a signature or some such). This is a hard-working and longtime contributor who might just as well have registered his username in Hebrew to begin with (new usernames, contradictorily, are allowed to contain non-Latin characters). Refusing to change his name now seems purposelessly punitive. — Dan | talk 08:02, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Clerk note: - Are you aware of the risks associated with using your real name on Wikipedia? --
Whiteandnerdy111 (
talk) 21:30, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I read the Help files on that and it's why I originally used a pseudonym. Since then, though, I feel uncomfortable about it. Using my real name here won't enormously increase my exposure on the web: for years, I've used my real name on my website and on screen writing and gay fiction sites. Now I also use it on my Wordpress blog, my photo site, and my slide sharing site. It seems unreasonable that visitors to any of those places should be shielded from my activities here -- or that people here shouldn't know that I'm the same person who appears elsewhere. Thanks, though -- I do appreciate your concern. William P. Coleman ( talk) 22:06, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

I don't want to be blocked because someone in the future thinks my username is inappropriate as it is the name of people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. I don't want a drastic name change.

Tuckdogg → Gromlakh
- Current name: Tuckdogg ( talk · contribs · logs · block log)

- Reason: Multiple:
- Standardizing Internet logins across multiple sites.
- Username "Tuckdogg" is something I frankly haven't used for years anywhere else, but I happened to have a Wikipedia account under this name so I started editing in earnest with it instead of creating a new account like I should have.
- I have encountered other "Tuckdogg"s who take this name on other sites; "Gromlakh" seems to be fairly unique to me (it's my primary character's name on Ancient Anguish).
- Personal preference; I don't care for the name "Tuckdogg" at all anymore and I'm trying to phase it out.
I could always create a new account, but I have a fair number of edits under this name and have become known on WP:MMA. If this request is granted I also expect to put a note on my user page explaining the name change to minimize unnecessary confusion over who I am. Tuckdogg ( talk) 08:30, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
