 * old account is invalid

 * MythBlood 17:56, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Excluding its contribution here, the old account has four contribs, two of which are to a userpage. Is a merge really necessary? -- pling User Pling sig.png 17:59, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * No, I remove the request. I don't care if they got merged. Greener put a note on my talk page, and I was under the impression that it was proper protocol, if it ins't necessary then don't worry about it.MythBlood 03:27, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

 * I can't login with my old account (Rambutaan) so I would like to merge the account with my new one Marc Grahamsworth. Please see post below for previous attempt at merging.
 * Marc Grahamsworth 20:41, 24 October 2010 (UTC) (Cannot access old account as passwords no longer work for it)
 * Marc Grahamsworth 20:41, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Resolved as per talk page. Old account was recovered. Misery  12:11, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Resolved as per talk page. Old account was recovered. Misery  12:11, 29 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I can't login with my old account (Rambutaan) so I created a new one to merge with my old one. i.e. I want Rambutaan1 removed but I want my Rambutaan account back.
 * Rambutaan1 11:34, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Rambutaan1 11:34, 24 October 2010 (UTC) (How do I get a signature with my old account if I can't access it?)
 * That isn't how an account merge works. All I can do is take the contributions from one account and credit them to another. So for example, I could take the contributions from User:Rambutaan and credit them to User:Rambutaan1. I cannot access an account you have lost/forgotten the password for. If you did not put in an email address for password recovery, the account is not recoverable. Misery  12:47, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the prompt reply Misery. I've created a new account now (since initially I thought that I could merge my new account with the old one) in order to merge Rambutaan's edits to this one: Marc Grahamsworth. I'll setup a new request if you like (and consequently this one can be closed). Marc Grahamsworth 20:41, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

 * i have no clue why i have 2 names and why 1 has a period, greener told me to post here. i don't know if i need a merge really, maybe more of a cleanup. maybe the name (coil) on gw2w too would be nice with the same email as the tobomergedto account
 * Coil. 08:52, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Coil 08:53, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I have no idea how you managed to do that unintentionally, but I have merged the two accounts. This just means that your actions are now both stored on the User:Coil account. All you need to do to prevent this occuring again is not log in to the User:Coil. account. Also, the acount databases are linked between GWW and GW2W, so to use User:Coil, you just have to log in using the same password as you use here. If you have a lot of edits on the tobomergedto account and want them merged across you need to ask them to do that there as I do not have bureaucratic rights over there (or even know if they do that or what the process is).

I also made a Guild User page that is outdated and an user page with links to pages of my characters that needs to be updated.

 * Cannot retrieve old password from Caoimhe account set up in 2007, and am looking ahead to contributing to the wiki both for GW1 and 2. Caoimhe is the old account I wish to have merged with this Cailini Alainn account, as Wyn suggested for me  here. Thanks in advance.
 * Cailini Alainn 19:08, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I removed the Caoimhe signature - the signatures here are supposed to be made using the account itself to confirm both accounts are owned by the same person; just linking to the name doesn't achieve the same result. Obviously, as you've forgotten that account's password, you're not able to do that. However, since the contributions on the Caoimhe account are only to guild- and userpages, I doubt that the bureaucrats require confirmation. -- pling User Pling sig.png 23:14, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, pling. I appreciate the info; just wanted to keep everything aboveboard/transparent/honest, even though the old account didn't contribute much. The road to hell, and all that. Cailini Alainn 18:10, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

 * A shorter name that better reflects the personality I've created, especially with the sig, and more natural to find based on the countless pages that carry my signature. I have saved my raw watchlist and I assume I can individually move my own Userpages. Will my files (which are all images) need to be moved also? Thanks.

 * User merge only merges your contributions/logs into the new user account. All pages stay at the old location, so yes, everything will have to be moved, although I don't see a problem with leaving most of the things behind (like normal user images) as you still own the old account then. poke | talk 21:44, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
 * So then there's no point at which, say, after the move has been completed, the old account is deleted or erased? I didn't realize that, but that's okay too. | 7  2   User_Seventy_two_Truly_Random.jpg | 23:29, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

 * You have to wait for a bureaucrat to do your merge. – User Balistic B d-dark.pngalistic 15:40, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Typically I wait until someone starts using their new account so I don't have to merge twice or anything silly. Start using it and I'll probably do it immediately. Misery  17:29, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Awesome, thanks! Also, hmmm -- if it's not too much trouble, I wonder if Special:Contributions/72.38.32.223 < this guy's contribution's could also be merged? For some reason I didn't have the foresight to ask, but it's probably better than having a line saying "This guy's contributions are also mine"... If it's not too much trouble. And don't worry, for this one I started using the new user a year ago ;) | 7  2   User_72_Truly_Random.jpg | 15:49, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

 * There is really no reason to merge those accounts. It seems that you didn't get what this is about. It only moves contributions. If you didn't make those contributions after requesting user merge, that account would have been empty anyway. poke | talk 14:59, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

 * I would like the contributes that I have done on this ip (static ip for the house) transferred to Ariyen. Thank you~
 * 72.148.31.114 07:09, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * -- [[File:User Ariyen sig icon.gif]] riyen ♥ 07:08, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Firstly, we'd need to find out if unregistered accounts can be merged into registered accounts. Secondly, we'd have to be sure that all the contributions for the IP have been made by you, which we can't be for definite. Both of these are making me hesitate to carry out the merge - even if unregistered → registered does work, the second is still cause for concern. WTB opinions for that. -- pling User Pling sig.png 12:54, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Unregistered to registered should work; on the concern, what about requiring IPs to sign twice, maybe one month after the first, to prove that the IP really is static. Of course that won't help against proxys but then it can be based on the contributions of the IP. poke | talk 13:08, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure how consistently we'd be able to prove it, but in this case, the contribs are pretty clearly all Ariyen's. The first 2 contribs are manually signed as Ariyen, and later talk page edits are followed up quickly by edits from the account to change the signature. - Tanetris 16:10, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I can and am truthfully admitting that I have done those edits. As much as I could, I have tried to re-sign things as me, if possible, but some aren't that possible. -- [[File:User Ariyen sig icon.gif]] riyen ♥ 21:43, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Updated text above; if you would like to, I can easily do that. Do you want to keep redirects? poke | talk 19:25, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh yes please. Keeping redirects is OK, it will be useful for my main userpage and talk page as well as my templates, some people actually use them. Is moving my images possible too? I'll re-tag them myself for proper categorization in Category:User images. :D Also my suggestions can stay where they are, I need to move them to the feedback namespace anyway, or you can move them if that makes coding the bot operation easier. &mdash; Why [[Image:User Why s.png|User talk:Why]] 19:53, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, I didn't read the bit about the "move subpages" option, I guess I can handle my userspace myself. Mind to move only my images? &mdash; Why [[Image:User Why s.png|User talk:Why]] 19:55, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * User images, huh? I guess I have to write something more special for this after all :P I'll do it tomorrow. poke | talk 21:35, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it'd be best if I moved them myself. My main concern was the RC spam moving the images will cause, but as I need to change the to  there will be RC spam anyway, so the merit of botting this action is limited, I think. Unless doing this with wikichu has some benefit I don't know of. You're the botmaster, not me :)  &mdash; Why [[Image:User Why s.png|User talk:Why]] 22:08, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
