Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Idanbot", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it contains the suffix "-bot", which is generally reserved for authorized bot accounts. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. N.J.A. | talk 11:37, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
- Didn't know my last name would bother as it hasn't for over twenty years on multiple platforms.
In the case of closing my account will I be able to create a new account on the same email address? (using a legitimate name of course). If so, please close my account. Idanbot (talk) 12:22, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
- No worries, it is a very specific rule that applies to Wikipedia due to our use of specialised accounts typically ending in "bot". You may simply click the link to: create a new account and simply abandon / stop using this account. Alternatively if you wish for your registration to be moved to a new account respond to this message and copy/ paste

- I can certainly help you change your username as I do have the ability. What would you like your new username to be? --TheSandDoctor Talk 22:11, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Hey @TheSandDoctor, I'd like the new username to be Idan.B or RA1D0ne incase the first option is taken or not possible, Thanks. Idanbot (talk) 22:28, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Idan.B is free. I will rename your account. You can log in via the new username shortly. If "Idanbot" doesn't work for logging in, then you can try "Idan.B" and that should work. Respond to my email if neither do. Going to rename now. --TheSandDoctor Talk 23:42, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- You have been renamed. You can now log in as "Idan.B" Thank you for selecting a new username
