Log in / create account

Secure your account:

• Consider logging in on the secure server.
• If your password only contains letters or only numbers, please read our article on password strength and consider changing it (in Special:Preferences after you log in).
• To avoid becoming a victim of phishing, always verify that you are viewing Wikipedia's login page when logging in. Wikipedia will never ask for any information other than your username, password and email address.
• Do not give out your password to anyone.
• If your account is compromised, it may be permanently blocked unless you can prove you are its rightful owner.
• As a safeguard you may "commit" to your identity by adding a cryptographic hash to your user page as explained here. This makes it almost impossible for an impostor to continue impersonating you once you regain control of your account.
