Due to repeated spam bot vandalism of the wiki, new account creation is restricted to Administrators.

To request a new account, contact one of the administrators. You may find a list of admins at Special:ListUsers, filtering the list to users in the Administrator group.

A private form of communication is required, as your temporary password will need to be given to you. Be prepared to contact an admin via email, discord, twitter, etc.

Please include the user name you would like. Once your account is created, you will be given a temporary password so you can log in and go to Special:Preferences and fill in your profile and change your password to one of your own choosing.
