Forum:Rename a user

Is it possible to rename a user? John Reaves (talk) 03:56, 4 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Last I heard, no. It's possible on Uncyclopedia, but because Wikia has a shared database, I don't think it's possible. G .He (Talk!) 04:21, 4 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Is it possible to have a Wikia administrator rename your account? Because I don't want the name I have on my current account, but it's an administrator account on DisneyWiki. --Evan 23:18, 10 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Like previously mentioned, it's currently not possible to rename a user on Wikia. G .He (Talk!) 23:40, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

It's not possible because Wikia (except Uncyclopedia) uses a shared database. If user A would be renamed to user B, the change would be global. User A would be then user B on every single Wikia wiki, like on War, Star Wars, 24 even if he would only want his account renamed on Central. End of story. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 23:50, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
