1. You're not really Sarah Knauss. You're not a 119-year-old woman.

2. You had a history of problematic editing in the past (including making up false death dates). To me, you loose the privilege of "anonymity" with actions like that. Ryoung122 (talk) 16:02, December 11, 2016 (UTC) The thing is, you haven't changed anything. His username is still "Timothy McGuire". The only thing that's changed is that clicking his name takes you to User:Timothy McGuire. All his edits are under "Sarah Knauss". You'd have to go to the Wikia higher-ups to have his username changed. This isn't about anonymity, this is about software, and how Wikia works.
