[edit] Sock Puppets
{{helpme}} I just read about "Sock Puppets" in the help section. This is actually my second account--I created it awhile ago when I was very new to Wikipedia because I couldn't access my first account. It was a password problem--I couldn't remember the password and couldn't reset it because I didn't have an email address linked to the account. I couldn't figure out any way to fix the issue, so I thought my only choice was to start over. However, I later found a computer that had the password saved on it and so now I'm able at access that initial account again. Thus, I'm wondering if there's a way I could merge my two accounts (under my first one--I was helping w/ a project on that account that I'd like to continue contributing to whereas this account seems to be more about pop culture). I don't be accused of sock puppeteering! I couldn't find an answer on any of the help pages, so I thought I'd ask here. Thanks so much for your time. Efrafra 09:07, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- While sock puppets are generally not allowed WP:SOCK states several reasons why you might want two, however, the BEST thing to do, is to login to your first account, and redirect your User page to User:Efrafra, and the Talk page (if empty) to User talk:Efrafra, if the talk page has content, add a message to the top stating it is an archived page for an account not in use, and your current talk page can be found here. I believe this is the best solution you can get. Hope this helps, and if you have any other queries I've added your talk page to my watchlist --NigelJ talk 10:35, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
