Step-by-step
Usurping an account
This is a process where the username of an account is taken over by another user.
Visit User talk:Dmitriy (usurped)~mediawikiwiki to see usurpation in action. To achieve this, the administrator can rename the existing username by adding (usurped) as a qualifer. Then they can successfully take over the existing username.
