Template:Alternative user → Template:Old account – “Alternative user” does not convey the purpose this template serves. Instead rename it to “Old account” or “Former account notice” or something similar because that is a more appropriate name. PorkchopGMX 19:24, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support—this will also help avoid confusion with Template:Alternative account. —andrybak (talk) 19:53, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support and merge Template:Former account to this page. Both templates have the same purpose. The new name makes more sense. Interstellarity (talk) 21:20, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
- Another proposal We could merge Template:FormerAccount into this and provide
{{Old account|altwording=yes}}which could display this on User:Example1’s userpage if User:Example2 (formerly User:Example1) wanted to use alternative wording:
 | This account was formerly used by Example2 (<— {{{1}}} goes here).. |
- Also, the indicator for {{{1}}} is not going to be there in the final template. Everything is possible but nothing is real... (PorkchopGMX) (t - c) 22:14, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
