# Credential management for community forums and wiki
-
This wiki does not use the old OpenVPN community credentials you might have. Moreover, to avoid spam self-service registration of user accounts is locked.
+
In the past the community wiki and the community forums shared a single authentication system. That has changed.

**If you wish to edit this wiki please request credentials at #openvpn-devel IRC channel on libera.chat**
+
The community wiki is now only open for known community contributors, and access can be granted if you request it at #openvpn-devel IRC channel on libera.chat.
+
+
The forums are open for anyone to register and the password reset functions are available there on the forums itself, either via 'forgot password' function or via profile > settings menu.
