Changing Username
Hi admins, would you please change my username from Tiggger to "Untitled" (if used, "Untitled_Paint")? My account is more than one year old. I would also like to ask if I can set up a new page for the Microsoft PC Manager, as I have got nearly all the installation packages of the builds. Tiggger (talk) 14:28, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * No one mentioned you this before, but remember to sign your comments using 4 tildes:  763004 (💬 T 20:18, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
 * ❌ Denied. Your account might be more than a year old, but you made no contributions to the site and in fact didn't edit at all before this request. -- 14:39, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

Change my username please (again)
Hey, can any admin please change my username from "Bubblebeam" to "Uncle Captain"? Because I am starting to not like my current one anymore. Uncle Captain (talk) 01:11, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

 * That's ok, I can wait until 3 September 2022. :) Uncle Captain (talk) 01:59, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * @Xeno But still, the guidelines still say 6 months. Uncle Captain (talk) 02:00, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It actually says "If your account is at least 6 months old and you haven't already done so less than a year ago". So yeah, sorry. -- 02:04, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Alright, its been a year since my last rename. Can I please be changed from “Bubblebeam” to “Uncle Captain?” Uncle Captain (talk) 03:58, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
 * ✔️ Done. -- 10:51, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Automoderation request
I don't know if it will be rejected or success, but I want to be automoderated. From the abuse logs (which shows my edit faults) I will be more careful when edit pages. - Someone (talk) 15:06, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
 * The automoderated group is deprecated. -- 10:54, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Change my username
This might seem like a simple change, but it's been a year since I joined the wiki. Can admins change my username to "NaraInsider1694"? Nara Insider (talk) 04:39, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
 * ✔️ Done. -- 10:51, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Rename me
Can you please rename me to iDrxp1170 (for parity with my Xbox Live account)? Because Someone was actually my placeholder name because I can't think of any name. - Someone (talk) 01:13, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
 * This kind of request can only be in the Administrators’ noticeboard. Uncle Captain (talk) 01:19, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Block 118.91.21.81
This user removed the delete template with absolute no reason -- 13:00, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Template:Delete hasn't been updated since July 2020, Am I missing something? --Sporb (talk) 13:15, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
 * No, I mean that template is assiocated with Articles for deletion Once the template got removed, means that AfD has been closed. This time, AfD wasn't closed, so it's bannable -- 15:35, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

Well, there's a new problem. Both 118.91.21.81 and their "friend", 211.37.32.42, made some unnecessary edits, like adding bugs that don't actually occur on a specific build to build pages, changing the minimum/maximum version of Windows that was supported by a program (Deborahh1995 and their 92.53 IPs also do this) and adding unnecessary text to the start of a section on Mac OS X build pages. However, when other users reverted their edits, they will eventually go crazy and revert others' edits, and for most of the time, their undo summaries are in Korean (which most people in the wiki don't understand). So, the only solution to this would be to block these IPs, since their behavior is becoming an issue for some users. NaraInsider1694 (talk) 04:24, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Page protection request
As every Hall of Shame article is protected, Hall_of_Shame/Windows_Server_2012_R2_build_9458 should be protected too. --Sporb (talk) 15:00, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
 * And Hall_of_Shame/Windows_8.1_build_9458 as well --Sporb (talk) 15:17, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

Delete my talk page and remove the block
First, sorry for editing my user talk page without looking the guidelines. I want two things: Fatih4 (talk) 08:11, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete my talk page.
 * Remove the block that prevents me from editing my user pages.
 * First, you just editing too much on your userpage, so, maybe you'll need to contribute to the articles. Second, asking for unblock isn't a good idea. Many user asked for unblock but failed. So, sorry. -- 10:48, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Your block doesn't prevent you from contributing to the site, which is, umm, the main point of the wiki. Maybe do that first and then we can later talk about lifting your user space block. -- 14:57, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Rename request
Can admins change my username to simply "Brennan"? I don't like my current one... - Brennan1234567890 (talk) 20:28, 14 October 2022
 * Changed my mind, guys... Brennan1234567890 (Talk page | Contributions) 01:34, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

Block 101.230.203.200
He is vandalizing the Windows 11 build 25236.1000 and Windows Vista page. Block him if he continues with more vandalism. 149.19.33.49 14:34, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Name change
Could you please change my name to "ClassicMacOSGuy1067" please? PewDiePie 2021 (talk) 12:49, 12 November 2022 (UTC)


 * ✔ Ryuzaki changed your name. 138.43.105.135 16:36, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

Stop protecting Windows Next Valley and Next Valley name
We should stop protecting these names, since we got news about it. NexineTech2022
 * It's to prevent vandalism. These pages will be created by vandalizers. 00:23, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I keep checking this topic. So whenever I notice one of the admins say yes, I will create the page instantly.
 * Speedy deletion reason: vandalism or hoax (vandalizers will create those pages and then say bad things about BetaWiki, maybe) 03:14, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I am making a sandbox, so check it when I'm done.
 * Done, see it here>> Link << (>(>NexineTech2022<)<)
 * Remember to sign your comments with  (adding a link to your userspace won't sign your comment). NaraInsider1694 (talk) 04:20, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
 * No, it's way too early. Making an article for a single concept art is just ridiculous. -- 13:55, 19 November 2022 (UTC)

Block user
 ArtY2002 

This user keeps saying that Office 2021 former name is Office 2022 (that does not make sense at all). Also they keeps adding 9788 and 9795 (those build are regarded as not-notable fake) back to the Windws 10 1507 article. Their edit summary contains toxic words that needs to be hidden. I have three suggestions:
 * Option 1: Fully block them
 * Option 2: Block them from the Office 2021 and Windows 10 (original release) pages.
 * Option 3: Protect the Office 2021 and Windows 10 (original release) pages.


 * That user has finally been banned (what a relief). NaraInsider1694 (talk) 13:38, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

Image Upload Ban Lift
Can you lift the ban about not uploading images? I promise i will upload screenshots without custom graphics, without my face, and as always, 1024x768.
 * Oppose. It's only a month, and you can live for a month. Plus all your screenshots are just reuploads of already good, existing images. Also, PLEASE, for the love of God, sign your posts. You can do it by adding the following to the end of your comment:  --Sporb (talk) 03:41, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose. As pointed out by Sporb, your screenshots are just reuploads of existing images that are already good enough. Plus, it's only a month, and you can live for a month (to be exact, you can live until January of 2023). NaraInsider1694 (talk) 04:47, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I assume that you will continue to reupload images. Also, you can wait for 1 month since it's almost the end of 2022 (I refer the end of 2022 as December 31st 2022) --User3412 (talk) 14:47, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Just have patience, you can wait 19 days. Xeno (talk) 14:53, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Strangely, this wiki is confused that you weren't blocked, but you are blocked, TheRealToriel2011. If you keep complaining about your block, your block could get worse, TheRealToriel2011. 763004 (💬 T 18:46, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
 * But i want to upload some images to the Virtual PC page. It was shot with AeroShot. And i'm not reuploading. --TheRealToriel2011 (talk) 04:47, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
 * You don't need to do that. Also, no one was going to trust you due to the actions you have done in the past. NaraInsider1694 (talk) 06:45, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Just think about 1024x768 is how much cm and how much cm is a website's photo. 06:24, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Your ban has almost expired. Wait for 5 days, TRT2011. 763004 (💬 T 17:42, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Nuvola apps important.svg TRT2011, it's near the end of your ban. Wait for less than a day. TRT2011, I am warning you, if you continue to upload bad images, you may be blocked from editing. 763004 (💬 T 20:39, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Octagon delete.svg TRT2011, your ban is almost done. I am warning you, if you upload a bad image again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Windows_logo_(2006).svg 763004 &bull; Talk &bull; Sandbox 14:32, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Changing username
Hi, can admins please change my username to "Lixivite"? Because my current username was picked when I was too influenced by Chinese stuff and I want a neutral username. My account is almost 4 years old. rebrand soon (talk) 18:50, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
