 * You can create a new account and redirect your old username there, but it is impossible for the old account to be "deleted" and things like edit counts cant be transferred, either. I'm pretty sure there's no way to do it other than that, anyway. -- ED ( talk )(gaming) 21:40, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

The only way to change your username is to create a new account. Please bear in mind that edit counts cannot be transferred to your new account. Accounts, generally speaking, cannot be deleted in MediaWiki installations unless the account has no edits and no log entries. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 22:37, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
