How to get an account
Unlike Wikipedia where you can set up your own account, accounts for this wiki need to be requested. If you are associated with the project and want an account, contact p:Tina Tenbergen or p:Trish Ostryzniuk who will then set up as a new user. When an account is generated for you, you will receive an automated email from a "noreply" address, containing your account name and password.
How to log on
To log on, click on the log in link in the top right corner and enter your account name and password. Account names and passwords are case sensitive!
If you can't remember password
If you can't remember password, you can get the wiki to email you a new one. Go to the log on, enter your account name (see below if you can't remember what it is) and click the "email me" button. A new password will be emailed to the address set in your preferebces automatically right away. You may need to refresh your email client a few times, but the password should arrive within minutes. If it does not arrive, you may be using the wrong account name, or the email address in your preferences may be wrong.
Changing your password
To change your password, click on "my preferences in the top right corner. Fill out the change password box in the bottom left corner, and click save.
If you can't remember your account name

Where possible the account names on this wiki follow the pattern
