Please note
that the single user login account merging system is up and
running in a live demo state since Wikimania at
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MergeAccount
One request: Please distinguish between accounts which have matching
password/email and accounts that don't match but have no edits so will
be merged anyway. The list of accounts it intends to merge with mine
includes quite a few which I certainly didn't create, which could be
rather confusing (well, to be honest, it *was* rather confusing, I
thought it was a bug until I thought to check the contribs and saw
they were blank).
Good thought! The merging system knows internally what reason was used
to make the match, and it would indeed be helpful to display that to the
user.
At the moment that's only stored internally.
