Usage

{{Renameuser}} is generated automatically by clicking the button "Click here to request a username change at WP:CHUS, and is automatically converted to {{Renameuser2}} when the username change request is submitted. If, for example, your username is "Joe Bloggs" and you wish to change it to "Lorem ipsum" because you don't want to use a real name, the syntax should read like this:

{{safesubst:Renameuser
 |CURRENT={{subst:REVISIONUSER}} <!-- The "{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}" will automatically fill in your username -- please do not touch it! -->
 |NEW=Lorem ipsum
 |REASON=I don't want to use a real name. ~~~~
}}

If your request is submitted malformed, you may remedy it based on this syntax:

=== <span id="Joe Bloggs">Joe Bloggs</span> → Lorem ipsum ===
{{renameuser2| 1=Joe Bloggs | 2=Lorem ipsum }}
* Datestamp: ~~~~~
* Reason: I don't want to use a real name. ~~~~
