Unable to change username

Hello,

I’m trying to change my username (@dataviz-datos-gob-es) to one that seems to be no longer in use and it is not associated with any other account: @datos-gob-es, attached.

When I try to switch I get the message that “that username is already taken” or “unable to change login”.

Any clue on how to proceed to change to this username ?

Thanks !

Hi @Datos-gob-es, we’ve gone ahead and renamed your account as requested. Usernames associated with deleted accounts normally aren’t available to be reused, but we’ve made an exception for you here. Let us know if we can offer any further assistance.

Hi Mike,

Thanks a lot for this, this is really helpful. I do appreciate it.

This year we started developing dataviz projects to promote the use of open data, and the choice was clear from the beginning: it has to be D3.js, and it has to be in Observable. Looking forward to growing our gallery with plenty of examples of all kinds.

Thanks again.
