Help:Why Create an Account

Introduction
Creating an account is free and easy. You can use the account for all Wikia wiki's. It also has several other advantages over editing logged-out.

Please consider creating an account by going here

Anonymity under a Username
Although those editing logged-out are often called "anons" on wikis, they are actually identified by IP number. This is publicly visible in the "history" page and Recent Changes each time they edit. For many people (for example those using other large Internet service providers) this doesn't give any information to others. But in some cases this may allow others to work out your location or other details. If you are worried about this, you should log in to edit. Your IP address will then not be visible to other contributors.

Joining the Community
Creating a Username means that you will be able to gain reputation and recognition in the community. IP:88.108.20.19 is not really that easyfor people to remember! Every user can also make a personal User Page for your account. The link to your User page will appear at the top of the screen. You will also have a personal Talk Page, and will be notified each time someone adds a message to your Talk Page. Being able to communicate easily makes it a lot easier to build a wiki, and makes the wiki more of a community.

New Features
Being logged in allows other feature unavailable to anonymous users:
 * You can rename pages (with the "move" tab),
 * Upload images,
 * Easily view your contributions using the "my contributions" link at the top of the screen,
 * and Make a personal Watchlist to keep an eye on your favourite articles.

Customisation
A lot of the look of the site can be changed with customisation. Using the "preferences" link, you can change how the site looks to you, your time-zone preferences, search settings, and much more.

If you know CSS, then you can change the look of the site even further with your own personal style sheet.
