Greetings. In 2012 I was successful in my first RfA, when I was editing as Sven Manguard. A few years later I became inactive, and as such, my tools were removed.

I’ve been active on Commons under my new name since mid-March. My original plan was to wait another month or so before running again, but there are a ton of admin backlogs at the moment, and since I am willing and able to assist with them, I figured I’d nominate myself now.

Support Loved your explanation of what the squirrels are conspiring to do. I also like that you were careful and posted that on your own talk page. As above, per Storkk and others. Ellin Beltz (talk) 20:34, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question What are the squirrels conspiring to do? -mattbuck (Talk) 19:44, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Question Could you provide some evidence for the assertion that you're Sven Manguard, former admin in good standing who just needs to be welcomed back? DS (talk) 02:27, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
See diff. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:44, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks King of Hearts. @DragonflySixtyseven: I am still able to log into the old account; however, verifying my identify is the only reason I'd do it. Hopefully this will suffice? If not, I still have access to this account's email address and can send you an email from it. I've also been validated as the same person when I rejoined OTRS, and am friends with a few editors on Steam and LinkedIn (dating back to 2012-14), and can reach out through one of those platforms to ask them to validate my identity here. Sven Manguard Wha? 05:55, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good enough. DS (talk) 18:52, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question Why had you decided to create a new account instead of requesting a rename for your old account to your new username? pandakekok9 06:44, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Pandakekok9: I'm pretty sure that I just forgot that it was possible. However, if it ever becomes possible to merge account histories, I'd have no problem merging Sven into this one. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 08:13, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merging accounts is not possible and is not going to become possible. Pppery (talk) 03:44, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment and same as last time - babel on user page please - thanks --Herby ^{talk thyme} 07:04, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Herbythyme: Done. Thanks for the reminder. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 08:01, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question Squirrel Conspiracy is quite long username. Do you prefer to be called Squirrel, Conspiracy or Sven? Or maybe some other way? Taivo (talk) 08:16, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Taivo: If you'd prefer to shorten the name, Squirrel is fine. Sven is not actually my first name. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 19:02, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment @Mattbuck and Taivo: I did have an answer to Mattbuck's question prepared, however since my home project is English Wikipedia, where humor during an RfA is advised against, I held off on posting it. I've placed it on Matt's talk page, here. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 19:55, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
