User Self-Registration

HELP Note: Registered users can change and reset their passwords

ALERT! IMPORTANT : Accounts that are inactive for more than 9 months will be disabled with no notice. To avoid this, just log in at least once every 8 months.

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE PROCEEDING!

Registration on NRAO's public wiki is _only required_ if you need either of these:

  • Access to restricted content
  • Edit or Write privileges

Otherwise, just go read stuff. If you find a need to do one of the above, you can register later.

Newly registered users have NO WRITE OR EDIT PRIVILEGES. See step 4 below for details.

If you wish to restore an old account, contact the webmaster directly.

HOW TO REGISTER

  1. By registering, you agree to abide by NRAO's policies including the Public Wiki Account Policy.
  2. Fill in the form below and submit it; you will get an automated e-mail with a confirmation link.
  3. Click on the confirmation link in your e-mail (or copy/paste it into the URL bar of your browser)
  4. If you need edit and/or write privileges (and only if you do):

    • ALERT! For non-NRAO registrants, a separate manual e-mail MUST be sent by you after registration, to the webmaster, to request write/edit privileges. We regret this extra step, but it is necessary to keep 'wiki spammers' at bay. _Include the name of your collaborator/sponsor at NRAO._
      • A "non-NRAO" registrant is anyone using an e-mail address that does not end in nrao.edu

    • ALERT! For ALL users, the addition of write/edit privileges is a manual process. NRAO users should contact the webmaster if there is a long delay between registration and granting of these privileges (we normally let you know when they're granted).

ALERT! Any non-NRAO registrant who does not respond and whose account fails a password integrity check will have their account removed.

ALERT! Violation of NRAO's Password Policy may have their wiki accounts removed.

Fields marked * are required

  • Your name as displayed online. Note, this must be a unique Wiki name. By default it is derived from your first and last name.
  • Your email address will be kept confidential.
  • Minimum 15 characters

If you have any questions about registration, send an e-mail to webmaster@nrao.edu.
