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
If your account on
test.wikipedia.org matches your main one, you can try
it out there and check for conflicting accounts. We'll go into the
opt-in beta for actual logins over the next couple of weeks.

Hi Brion,
Here is my situation (it's not a complaint, just a question ;-) ):
my main account is on fr.wp (let's call it A), I've the same account A on
mediawiki.org
unfortunatelly,
test.wikipedia.org tells me that my home account is on sv.wp
so I checked and indeed there is someone with account A on sv.wp which has
ten times more edit than me (I've around 700 and he has several thousands)
and which registered a few months earlier than me (back in 2004).
Well, if I understand correctly, I'm going to loose my account A on fr.wp
and
mediawiki.org in a few weeks.
That's not a problem at all, I'm fine with that ;-)
Last thing : I also have an other account B on fr.wp that I've used only
once for now (1 contribution on the user page).
Here is my question :
Is it possible that instead of proposing me to change my user name, the SUL
system proposes me to "transfer" my A contributions to another acount (there
I would specify B) and then to SUL-merge my account B ? I'm pretty sure this
is technically possible, but is it something you "could plan" or "have the
right" to do ? (please :-) )
