Description Guillaume Paumier 2008-09-28 14:50:00 UTC
I tried to rename [[fr:Utilisateur:Gpaumier]] to [[fr:Utilisateur:Test26092008]]. [[fr:Utilisateur:Gpaumier]] had 1 edit: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Carl_Runge&diff=prev&oldid=33815922

I happened to enter the original account in lowercase ("gpaumier") in the "current username" field. It seemed to work and I got the [[MediaWiki:Renameusersuccess]] message. The first argument of the log message ($1 in [[MediaWiki:Renameuser-log]]) was consistent with [[fr:Utilisateur:Gpaumier]]'s number of edits (1) ("1 édition"): http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AJournal&type=renameuser&user=Guillom&page=&year=&month=-1

But the account wasn't renamed. [[fr:Utilisateur:Test26092008]] is not a registered account and [[fr:Utilisateur:Gpaumier]] still has its only edit: [[fr:Special:Contributions/Gpaumier]]

Additional information:
* RenameUser log for Utilisateur:Gpaumier gives no result: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AJournal&type=renameuser&user=&page=Utilisateur%3Agpaumier&year=&month=-1
* RenameUser log for Utilisateur:gpaumier falls back to the log for Utilisateur:Gpaumier, hence no result either: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AJournal&type=renameuser&user=&page=Utilisateur%3Agpaumier&year=&month=-1
* RenameUser log using the account that renamed gives the expected output: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AJournal&type=renameuser&user=Guillom&page=&year=&month=-1

Note: If that matters, I don't have local bureaucrat rights on this wiki, I have global bureaucrat rights as a Wikimedia steward.
