Hi Starsk13, it looks like you're working on a lot of edits related to an identity concern. I'm not on the wiki committee or anything, just another editor, but there's a policy set up around what you're doing that might be really helpful, and that makes sure that your legal name (if that's what is the case) is much more fully removed from the wiki.

Basically it involves contacting the wiki committee with your identity concern (Fanlore:Contact page), and then the wiki committee will work with you on how to change the name on relevant pages, and help make sure it gets taken off in the most structured way, per Fanlore:Identity Protection and Fanlore:Pre-1995 Fan Name Use.

(There's also a bit here: Help:Protecting Identity that asks "If you discover that you or someone else has been outed, or you need to remove the link between legal name and fannish involvement, please contact the committee instead of trying to fix it yourself! Some steps require gardener, admin or sysop permissions. Use the AttentionNameChange to indicate which pages need changing if there are many that you have noticed.") Hope this information helps a little. --Sk 13:04, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Chiming in to say I am on the wiki committee and you can contact us here. Our standard identity protection procedure is to switch to first-name-last-initial; please let us know if this is insufficient and we can rename the page to one of the pseudonyms.--æþel 14:55, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
