Description Daa Jaa 2016-06-06 09:22:39 UTC
I created the account xdej-arm, because xdej was already taken.

Then heroxbd on #gentoo-prefix explained that xdej may be linked to my email address, and indeed it was (surely because it was created for forum.gentoo.org).

Can you please delete the account xdej-arm, or at least add a "delete my account" button on https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Special ?

Thanks in advance !

I am browsing with firefox 45.0.1

You likely created it in the past as accounts on our sites are linked in no way.

I have no way of verifying that this account belongs to you.
Please post a quick statement on the user or user talk page of 'xdej-arm' stating your wish.

The software provides no such feature. Given one or two requests a year, it's not worth implementing.
