Accounts & permissions
Registering
Three fields:
- Username — 3–64 characters. Letters — accented Latin and Hangul
included — plus digits, spaces, and
_ . -. This is your public name on every edit. - Email — must be real (verification lands here); throwaway-mail domains are rejected.
- Password — at least 8 characters.
You may also be asked to complete a quick bot check.
Email verification
Registering sends a verification link, valid for 24 hours (a banner links you to a resend). Until you click it you can sign in, browse, and preview edits — but not save. Verification unlocks writing, immediately.

A few things are staff-only: renaming and deleting pages are done by curators and sysops (deletion is reversible — the history survives), and template pages are maintained by sysops, since editing one changes every page that includes it. Profile pages show a curator or sysop chip for staff; ordinary accounts show none.
Sessions
Signing in keeps you signed in for up to a week of inactivity, renewing quietly as you use the site. Sign out from the account menu. Sessions are plain browser cookies — no personal data beyond your account itself.
Your pages
- Profile (
/user/YourName) — your edit count, join date, staff chip if any, a short bio (up to 500 characters, editable inline by you), and your recent edits. - Contributions — your complete edit history, with revision permalinks and size deltas.
- The Users page lists everyone, staff first.
