How to create an account?[edit]

See Special:CreateAccount.

If you have an account in Wikipedia in any language or any other public Wikimedia projects, you can directly log in using the account.

Which username can I use?[edit]

See Help:Usernames and accounts. Most usernames accepted in English Wikipedia are accepted here. You also have the right to change your username.

Can I log in using Facebook, Google, GitHub, etc.?[edit]

No. Wikimedia does not support logging in from third-party services for user privacy reason.

Can I use more than one accounts?[edit]

You may use more than one, but you must publicly disclose the relationship. See Wikidata:Alternate accounts.

How to enable Two-Factor Authentication?[edit]

See m:Help:Two-factor authentication. Usually you need to request two-factor authentication tester permission if you are not an administrator.

What if I forget the username or password?[edit]

This may help you.
