HWLLO-I would like to change my username for my page.Can you help?Thnx~

You can request a username change at WP:Changing username/Simple. Before deciding on a new name you may want to check out the username policy. Huon (talk) 18:02, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

HELLO- I recently changed my username,how long before it will be activated and how can I know if has been changed?Thnx~

Username changes are performed manually by a Bureaucrat, so that may take some time. However, there were some problems noted by a bot at the request page that need to be resolved before your account is renamed. It may be easiest to choose a more specific new username (and to check beforehand whether the new name is still available).

You will be notified of a name change here on your talk page, or more precisely, your talk page will be moved to match the new user name. Of course you can also keep an eye on the request page to check whether any additional issues arise. Huon (talk) 22:29, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your attention needed at WP:CHU

Hello. A bureaucrat or clerk has responded to your username change request, but requires clarification before moving forward. Please follow up at your username change request entry as soon as possible. Thank you. --I am k6ka ^{Talk to me!} _{See what I have done} 22:38, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

HELLO-I have modified the name change to Wikidude1.Will that work?Thanks!

You need to start a new request - the old one has been closed. Wikidude1 has also gone - use Special:CentralAuth to find an unused name - note that names that are very similar may also be declined. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 21:08, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

HELLO-I would like to use Wikidude1 for my new username.There is no global account associated with this name.Thnx~

There is no global account, but there is a User:Wikidude1 on the English Wikipedia. So, you'll have to pick a different name. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 21:53, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

HELLO-How about Wikidude15 for new username?Thnx~

That one's not taken yet, but there's a lot of other Wikidudes. Also, you need to request the name change at WP:Changing username/Simple, not here. Huon (talk) 22:15, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

HELLO-I have chosen a new username,just an inquiry to see if it will go thru.Thnx~

The only person who can answer that is the bureaucrat who will assess your request. I expect that he or she will let you know when that has happened. Until that happens, you can see if there is any progress by checking Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple, if you like.
