So, why can't I log in to the wiki?

[Darth_vader]

Login error
There is no user by the name "darth_vader". Check your spelling.

Just feeding it my regular login/pass that I would feed the forum/main site. Anybody know why I'm getting this?

It's always nice to have a sense of belonging and acknowledgement, but...

I seem to recall that the wiki doesn't like underscores. Try 'Darthvader'.

 

[Darth_vader]

Login error
Incorrect password entered. Please try again.

Using "Darthvader" (upper and lower-case "D") and both permutations of my passcode (which, as it happens, also includes one underscore.)

As described in the Wiki Help article, the Wiki does not allow underscores in user names. The RR Wiki user database is shared with the site user database, but the Wiki is the only application on the site that has the underscore problem. Once a site username is created, it becomes part of the Wiki user database, but underscores are not allowed. It's a bit of a Catch 22.

Your only option is to have your site user name changed.

To fix this, please send a support request to support@radioreference.com to request a username change.

This was why I changed my username a while back. PITA but it won't be fixed any time soon.
