Unexpected conversion of personal accounts to organizational accounts

Question

Body

I accidentally changed my personal account name to organization account conversion. My original lonewolfyx account became the organization account information, but trace-script became my personal account. I want to change back, how should operate! This is very important to me!

I think the safest thing to do is contact GitHub Support before changing anything else. If your lonewolfyx account was converted into an organization and trace-script is now your personal account, I'm not sure there's a way to reverse it yourself.

First, check whether your repositories and other data are still there. Then explain what happened to GitHub Support and ask if they can help restore your original account setup: https://support.github.com/

I'd avoid deleting either account or moving repositories around until you hear back from them. Hopefully they can help you figure out the best way to recover your original setup.

At present, I have contacted https://npmjs.com/support immediately, but it has not responded yet.
