#2469: Wiki account registration problems

Hello!
I'm Andrea, from the BALOC FOSS4G 2021, how are you?
Several days ago I wanted to create a new user on the wiki, but I did not
receive the account confirmation email for the FOSS4G 2021 logo contest.
We have also received a complaint from another user that the same thing
happens.
This prevents us from uploading their logos. You could review it?
The pages are these:
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2021/Concurso_logo and
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2021/Logo_Contest
Thank you !!!

I did a test to confirm email is working by resetting my test account and
I received the email.
Can you let me now which emails (or user names you created) are having
issue. I'll take a look. There were 4 unconfirmed accounts in the queue
which I just confirmed. Forgot to check the names. One was from sparkgeo
as I recall.

Hello!
In my case the user is atrovant, or the email is atrovant@gmail.com. What
happened to me is that I got the link to confirm the account, but never
the provisional password. I tried to reset the password but it did not
work either.
The email of the user who had problems is dennis.bauszus@geolytix.co.uk
So, the confirmation of new users is manual? Just to keep it in mind.
Thank you!

Hmm so are you all set? I tried doing a reset password on your account,
but said it had already been done for today.
As far as dennis. Sorry I thought I could look up usernames by email but
appears I can't. You know which user name for
dennis.bauszus@geolytix.co.uk or is that set already.
Yes confirmation of new wiki accounts has always been a manual because of
spam issues we've had in the past. So accounts need to be approved via
this - page https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Special:ConfirmAccounts
Which is only accessible to people with the bureaucrat role.
I can give you bureaucrat rights if you don't have them already - didn't
check.

Access issues have already been resolved.
We only need editing rolls on the pages mentioned above for these two
users who are the ones who manage the logo contest.
1) Canda1972
2) Atrovant
If the role of bureaucrat includes editing and user management, welcome.
I wait an answer

hello,
unfortunately this was not resolved. We were able to access the wiki, but
it did not allow us to make any kind of modification to the wiki. I don't
know what happened.
We also accessed from another user that did allow editing.
So I close the ticket.
Regards
