- It looks like the request was "NEW ovidiu.matiu", meaning they wanted to request "ovidiu.matiu" and forgot to erase the "NEW". —Random832 17:33, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
- Clerk note: The usernames are the same. MediaWiki software automatically capitalizes the first letters of usernames. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 23:03, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

- I'm unable to; the account doesn't have an email set. However, per Barneca (talk · contribs) and Ryan Taylor above, I have unblocked the account; bureaucrats, feel free to reevaluate this request. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 05:00, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
- I actually got the impression that it meant "we" as in "you and I", since both he and the bureaucrat who does the rename can be considered to be changing the name. —Random832 21:41, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Aburesz → Arion 3x3
[edit]- Current name: Aburesz (talk · contribs · logs · block log)
- Requested name: Arion 3x3 (other projects?) (rename user)
- Reason: When I first registered 15 months ago, I thought that the username I was providing was to be private and used only to log in. I had planned to use "Arion" as the name that would show up when posting or editing. When I found out that this was not the case, I went to "my preferences" and chose a "Signature" preference. However, with my userpage and my edits showing "Aburesz" and my posts showing "Arion 3x3", this has led some to question why this is so (as recently as today).
