Probably asked before (or written somewhere)..but.. when someone renames an account of user x on y wiki, Will it be renamed automatically on all other wikis in which they have started their account?
You're only renamed on wiki y. Renaming will probably be disabled for attached accounts.
As it works at the moment, only unattached accounts can be renamed, and that's done locally.
I'd like to simplify user-renaming issues in general; self-directed renaming (with appropriate limits) would reduce bureaucratic pressure. This could work on the global-account level as well.
