Global account issue
editI have noticed a singular isssue on my global account that is similar to this one occurred last month. In my case I accomplished to merge my wikitech.wikimedia.org account to the global one throughout Special:MergeAccount, but there are 2 more local accounts that I can't merge in any way. It seems that those local accounts were automatically and accidentally created when I navigated those minor wikis even if I was regularly logged in with my global account: I have realized this because there was listed only the new.wiki account as not merged in the MergeAccount special page in the beginning, then I tried to open the mos.wiki home page reported by Killarnee and subsequently it appeared also the mos.wiki account in the MergeAccount special page. How can we fix it? Thanks for your attention. Mess (talk) 20:26, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Mess you are likely affected by the issue mentioned in phab:T378289 / phab:T379490#10307369. The fix should be deployed soon. Johannnes89 (talk) 20:56, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Johannnes89 Thank you for the answer. Meanwhile I've partially fixed the issue: I've successfully merged the mos.wiki account, but the new.wiki one still stands on his own. It looks like that in the former case I can access to the local wiki with my global account and so I can apply the merge locally, while in the latter case I can't either log in with it and thus I can't perform the merge procedure for this reason.
