Unsurp request target email

Hello TARGET_USERNAME, I am sending you this email to inform you that another user would like to usurp, or "take over", your username on Wikipedia, because they would like to use it to edit. The changing username guideline (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Changing_username/Guidelines) allows a username that is not being actively used to be usurped if the target user is given an opportunity to object and does not do so. If you object to being usurped, please log in to your account and make an edit on your user talk page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:TARGET_USERNAME) stating that you object to usurpation. Any objection on your part will prevent usurpation. If you do not object to usurpation, you may log in to your account and make an edit on your user talk page stating that you approve the usurpation request. If you would like to be renamed to a different username, you may file a username change request at (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:GlobalRenameRequest). If you do not respond, the request may be fulfilled no sooner than ONHOLD_DATE. Your account will be renamed to a generic username—"TARGET_USERNAME (usurped)". No edits or data will be lost, and you will still be able to log in and edit under your new username. Thank you for your time. Best regards, YOUR_USERNAME

Long time / COI Many thanks for your interest in joining Wikipedia. I've gone ahead and created the account for you. You will receive a separate automated e-mail from wiki@wikimedia.org with your login credentials. Use them to log in for the first time. You will then be prompted to create a new password. After you create your own password, I suggest that you go to your preferences (the link for them is right at the top of the screen) and ensure your email address is set where indicated. If you forget your password, this will allow you to have a new one sent to you. Please accept my apology for how long it took to approve your account. A combination of too few volunteers and an unusually large number of requests contributed to the long delay. Since it appears that you may have ties to a business or have ties to/are a famous person, I would like to take a moment to remind you that Wikipedia is not to be used for promotional purposes. Before editing, please read Wikipedia's "Best Practices for Editors With Close Associations" at <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:BPCA>, the "Plain and Simple Conflict of Interest Guide" at <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:PSCOI>, and Wikipedia's policies on promotion at <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:PROMOTION>. Understanding these policies will help prevent misunderstandings between you and Wikipedia's administrators.

There are two issues. The first is general notability guidelines. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a directory. We will only write an article about your web site or business if it is "notable", meaning that it has been written about by independent reliable sources. Second, even if your business is notable, for you to write an article about it would violate conflict of interest guidelines.

Thank you, Requests for account creator flag Requests for account creator flag (Non-administrator comment) The account Creator flag is given to users who are already active in the account creation process. Users actively creating accounts without this flag are constricted to a limit of six accounts a day. Also, certain request with special circumstances such as usernames similar to an account already in existence are flagged for users with the account creator bit and can only be processed by these users. You are welcome to request access to the account creation interface Here. New user acceptance, by ACC Administrators is based on the need for new users and is not guaranteed. ACC request approved ACC request approved <USERNAME>, thank you for your interest in the account creation process. I have verified your Identification [<IDENT DIFF>] and I have approved your request, welcome to the team. You may now access (Time dependent, a tool root has to set your access in the database) the interface here. Before you do so, please read the account creation guide and our username policy thoroughly to familiarize yourself with the process. You should also join (Also needs a switch flipped by a channel operator) us on IRC #wikipedia-en-accounts connect where a bot informs us when new account requests come in and to get any advice on requests as well as the (Also needs a switch flipped by a list moderator/list admin) mailing list. Please note that we have implemented a policy of zero tolerance on mishandled requests, and that failure to assess correctly will result in suspension. I would like to emphasize that it is not a race to complete a request, and each one should be handled diligently and thoroughly. Currently you are allowed to create up to six accounts per day, although you won't be able to create an account with a similar name to that of another user; these requests are marked "Account Creator Needed" by the bot and "Flagged user needed" on the interface. However, if you reach the limit frequently, you can request the account creator permission at WP:PERM/ACC. Please keep in mind that the ACC tool is a powerful program, and misuse will result in your access being suspended by a tool administrator. Don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions. Thank you for participating in the account creation process. Again welcome!

Hello <Username>: I am FlightTime, a volunteer with Wikipedia's Account Creations Team. I processed your request or noticed it in our system. I have a few links that may be of some help to you.

Password reset

Password reset

Hello <Username>, Thank you for your interest in joining Wikipedia. At this time we have not created your account as there are similar usernames that already exist on Wikipedia and one which was created recently and is very similar to your request. I have sent a password reset email to that similar account in case you may have forgotten your password. If you do not receive a email with a temporary password reset, it is possible that you do not own these accounts or no email address is connected to these accounts. If that is so, please reply to this email and let us know. If you did not make this request, please ignore this email. If you wish to report this, please send an email to accounts-enwiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org with a copy of the original email. Hope this was helpful;

Shared accounts

Hello <Username>; This is FlightTime with the Wikipedia Account Creation Team. I have received your request and have noticed a problem with your requested username, Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be "Shared" as your username implies. The relevant policy can be found here [1] There isn't a problem creating separate accounts for each person. If I am incorrect with my presumption about your request, please reply with a short explanation of your choice and the account will be created.

Tor/Proxy

Tor/Proxy

Hello <username>, Looking at our logs, it appears the IP address you're requesting from belongs to a proxy service [1]. Open or anonymising proxies, including Tor [2], are blocked from editing Wikipedia. While this may affect legitimate users, they are not the intended targets. No restrictions are placed on reading Wikipedia through an open or anonymous proxy. Although Wikipedia encourages anyone in the world to contribute, open proxies are often used abusively. MediaWiki [3], the wiki software that powers Wikipedia, depends on IP addresses [4] for administrator intervention against abuse, especially by anonymous users. Open proxies allow malicious users to rapidly change IP addresses, causing continuous disruption that cannot be stopped by administrators. Several such attacks have occurred on Wikimedia projects, causing disruption and occupying administrators who would otherwise deal with other concerns. Unfortunately, you won't be able to edit while using this open proxy. You may make another request from a different IP. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

If you aren't <USERNAME>, or would like to edit under a different username, you may be able to create the account with the new username you have chosen yourself at [3]. If so, I wish you all the best and hope you enjoy your time on Wikipedia. If you are still unable to create the username yourself, we will gladly process your new request if you answer this email. In order to protect you from being impersonated for the case that you still want to use that username, we would kindly request that you identify with the Wikimedia Foundation (the Foundation behind Wikipedia) prior to creating an account. To do this, simply forward this email to [4] for further instructions, and get back to me after having successfully identified.
