- Please see step 3 in the "Process" section above where it says "Be sure that you are logged in to the relevant account. For security reasons, bureaucrats will not effect a name change if the request comes from an unauthorized user or an IP address." We can not process requests from an IP to change a username. You must be logged in. I recognize that the account is indefinitely blocked and thus you can not make the request here while logged in. If you place a message on your talk page while logged in under that account (you can still edit your talk page while blocked), I will unblock you long enough to allow the change request to be made here.
