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.

Every member of the FeministWiki can add further members. Currently the above-linked basic web interface is the way to do so. | |||

Send the username and the generated password to the new member and inform them that they can change their password after logging in. | |||
