Template:Lost password
Appearance
Did you provide an email address for the account? If you did, you should be able to request at the log in page, that a new password is sent to that email address. If you didn't provide an email address, bad luck; you won't be able to gain access to your account. However, you can create another account, and using that account, edit your old account's userpage to mention that you no longer use it. Before creating the new account, please read up on Wikipedia's username policy, to make sure your account complies. Hope this has helped.
This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Lost password}} ). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |

Usage
[edit]- This template must be subst'd. Instead of typing
{{Lost password}}
, you must type{{subst:Lost password}}
. - You can indent the template, by typing
{{subst:Lost password|i}}
or:{{subst:Lost password}}
. - The template does not include the four tildes at the end, so you will have to sign by typing the four tildes (~) after the template syntax.
