==Other language Wikipedias==
Is it possible to log in to other language Wikipedias using my English Wikipedia User name or do I need to register as a new User in each language? -- [[User:DanBlackham|DanBlackham]] 07:46, 18 Sep 2004 (UTC)

:You need to register in each language. A unified login proposal has been floated, though, so maybe in the future there will be single logins. [[User:Rmhermen|Rmhermen]] 14:24, Sep 18, 2004 (UTC)

:See [[meta:Single login]] and the more recent [[meta:Single signon transition]] for discussion on this. That page seems to imply it could be available soon. [[User:Angela|Angela]][[user talk:Angela|.]] 22:42, Sep 18, 2004 (UTC)

:How are they going to deal with the inevitable name conflict? [[User:Salasks|Salasks]] 23:22, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)

::That is in fact the main topic of discussion on [[meta:Single login]] (the two pages referenced above having been merged and expanded), it being the largest single stumbling block to making the change. Take a look, and feel free to add any comments that come into your head, either within the page or on [[meta:Talk:Single login|its talk page]]. - [[User:IMSoP|IMSoP]] 23:27, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
