Working towards SUL - unifying logins
editI hereby confirm my intention to rename the temporary username Royce Williams to Royce on all remaining projects, including the usernames listed in the section below. Royce (talk) 05:34, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
Note that I accidentally created the unified account Royce Williams, which currently only exists on the projects that I wish to unify to Royce. To be clear, I only wanted to create Royce Williams to work on remaining conflicts.
Note also that I did not discover the SUL project until very recently. I had not done anything to prevent username collisions in any projects other than major English ones, because I did not realize that a single collision could stand in the way of SUL.
Because some usurpations and name changes can take unpredictable time, I have secured the Royce username (warning: slow link) across many projects (more than 500 at this writing) in order to make sure that the name-collision problem does not get any worse while SUL work is in progress. Unfortunately, this means that toolserver.org response time is increased.

Other collisions and cleanup
edit- Resolved: PT user page creation blocked for "page content potentially inappropriate", but no obvious quick way to request exception. Even with leaving links out, still no success.
- RU user Royce appears to have been automatically converted to SUL, as my global login is not rejected, even though there appears to be a collision with previous content (talk page started in 2005). Not sure how to contact previous owner.
- Maybe previous owner is Royce80, or user Royce80 was changed to Royce?
- contributions stopped in 2006.
- No edits appear to have been made as Royce.
