Before the creation of a user account on Test Wiki, a user has the ability to browse, and in most cases contribute, anonymously. The term "anonymous" in the case of contributing is defined as the action of editing without a registered user account. Instead of contributions made under the registered user account's name, anonymous contributions are stored under your [[wikipedia:IP address|IP address]]. If you do not want your IP address to be publicly displayed, it is recommended that you [[Special:UserLogin/signup|create an account]]. |

When creating an account on Test Wiki, it is recommended that you specify a valid email address to associate with the account. Your email address is not publicly visible unless you use the [[Special:EmailUser|Special:EmailUser]] feature, which allows for direct user-to-user email conversation. These conversations are not overseen by Test Wiki, and it is your responsibility to practice internet safety when communicating through email. Additionally, specifying an email address allows for email notifications from Test Wiki, which can be selected or modified from [[Special:Preferences|Special:Preferences]]. |
