Help:Logging in

Logging in is not required for viewing pages, however, it is required for editing privileges.

Logging in

Note: If you are a member of an HMC partner hospital your user name and password has already been established as that used to access your HMC reports and services.

Creating a user account means that you supply a username, email address, and a password. Email addresses are only used to confirm the identity of users and will never be used for other purposes. The system will reject a username that is already in use and user account is created only once. The next time you log in you will need need to supply your username and password.

Edits you make are recorded under your username.

Why log in?

It is a good idea to log in, for these reasons:

• You will have the ability to edit No Subject - Encyclopedia of Psychoanalysis^TM pages and create new pages
• Other users will be able to recognize you by your username when you make changes to pages.
• You will establish your own user page where you can write a bit about yourself, and a user talk page which you can use to communicate with other users.
• You will be able to keep track of changes to modules you are interested in using a watch list.

How to log in

Click on the Log in link at the top right of the page. You will then be prompted to enter your username and password.

Username

Note that in some sans-serif fonts I (capital-i) and l (lowercase-L) look exactly the same, e.g. in Arial: I and l. If your user username contains one of the two, it may be wise to register also under the name that may look the same, without using that name, to prevent impersonation.

Your User page and User talk page

As a logged in user, you will be able to create your own user page and user talk page. When you are logged in, you will see your username displayed at the top right of the page. Click on this to get to your user page, which you can edit in the same way as any No Subject - Encyclopedia of Psychoanalysis^TM page.

Most users write a little bit about themselves. (note: that the information you provide is visible to all users)

You also have a User talk page. You can access this by clicking on the Talk link next to your username at the top right of the page. Other people may write messages in your user talk page by editing it, and you can respond. See Help:Talk page for more.

How to log out

You can log out any time by clicking on the Log out link at the top right of the page.
