[[File:Create-account-Gawler-History.png|thumb|The ''Create account'' form, with relevant parts highlighted with yellow boxes.]] | |||
Before someone can contribute to the site, an existing member must create an account for them. To do this you need to: | |||
# Go to [[Special:CreateAccount]] | |||
# Choose a username for them (e.g. their first name) | |||
# Select to send them a temporary random password | |||
# Enter their email address (very important!) | |||
These fields are highlighted in yellow in the screenshot at right. | |||
When you click 'Create account', the new user will receive an email telling them what their username and password is, and they'll be able to log in. | |||
