About Wikimedia developer accounts

Toolforge shares an account system with many other technical tools used by Wikimedians. The developer account used here also works with Wikitech, Gerrit, Phabricator, and other tools designed to help our technical contributors build and maintain software. This developer account is separate from the Wikimedia accounts that are used by most Wikimedia wikis.

Privacy notices

Creating and using a developer account will expose some information to other Cloud Services users:

The email address you associate with your developer account will be publically visible.
Your IP address will be recorded and may be visible to other users of Cloud VPS and Toolforge when you connect to virtual machines using SSH.
