Unable to log into wiki

[jeffdafoe]

Hello, I hope everyone's having a great christmas season. I went to do some minor edits to a wiki article today, my first edit here but I'm a seasoned wikipedia editor, and I discovered that I'm not able to log into the wiki section. I'm logged into the main RR and forums sections. When I try to log into the wiki section, it returns "There is no user by the name "eli_lilly". Check your spelling. ". Not a pressing issue by any means.

Best,
-E

Try with a upper case E.

No dice "There is no user by the name "Eli_lilly". Maybe my underscored username causes an issue.

-E

Maybe my underscored username causes an issue.

I don't know about that but I do know I had problems years ago because the wiki makes all usernames start with a capital letter even if they really don't.

Lately I noticed I get logged out of the wiki if I close the browser. I haven't been able to determine if this is somehow connected to the new forums or FF 64

Yes, this is correct. I was required to change my username because of this issue. You will need to open a support ticket:

Sounds good, thank you!

I sent an email request and they changed my username already, wiki login works fine now - thanks again!

I was just able to log into the wiki using a lowercase as first letter in my user name. After I logged in, it does show my name with a capital on top of the wiki..
