'''Note: These instructions are outdated.  A new way to set a recovery email and reset your password is underway.'''
If you want to have safety against lost passwords, you can set a recovery e-mail address via the [https://settings.feministwiki.org/settings.html FeministWiki Account Settings] page.  This e-mail address should '''not''' be your FeministWiki e-mail address (''janedoe''@feministwiki.org), since you need your FeministWiki password to access that one in the first place.  (Chicken and egg problem.)  The recovery e-mail address will be invisible to everyone except the FeministWiki technician.
 
If you want to have safety against lost passwords, you can set an e-mail address in your [[Special:Preferences|user preferences]] page that can be used to reset your password at any time.  This e-mail address should '''not''' be your FeministWiki e-mail address, since you need your FeministWiki password to use that one.  (Chicken and egg problem!)  The e-mail address you set in your user preferences will be invisible to all but the FeministWiki technician.


If it's very important for you to keep your identity private, and if you don't trust the technician or fear data leaks, then you can use an e-mail address that isn't tied to your real identity.  Just make sure that you can always access the e-mail that you use for this purpose, as otherwise you will not be able to reset your password.

'''Alternatively,''' you can contact the technician and ask for a manual password reset.  You can reach the technician by sending an e-mail to admin@feministwiki.org, or by writing to [https://twitter.com/@FeministWiki @FeministWiki] on Twitter.
