Hallo, I am new here since 27. May 2007.

And this one http://de.wikia.com/wiki/Benutzer:Tirkon I cannot redirect to [[en:User:Tirkon]]

The topic is misleading: you have only one account (Tirkon), the prefix is defined by MediaWiki software. Anyway, to redirect something to your userpage here, type in #REDIRECT [[w:User:Tirkon]] or then wikia: instead of w:, but both work. Also, you might want to know that cross-wiki redirects do not actually work, they're disabled on Wikia. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 14:38, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

O.K. If it is only one Account, why are the discussion and contribution pages of this two "accounts" http://www.wikia.com/wiki/User:Tirkon and this http://de.wikia.com/wiki/Benutzer:Tirkon not the same? And why can I not interwiki-link the both.

But this two "accounts" http://www.wikia.com/wiki/User:Tirkon and http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Benutzer:Tirkon are inter-wiki-linked at present and thus it is possible, but the other both should (the german and the english one). This is something confusing. -- Tirkon 15:43, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Well, the reason why those interwiki links are not working is that they haven't been activated. Usually you need to ask the staff to activate them, and they'll forward your request to the techs and it might take from a few days to a week until the interwiki links are up. I dunno how is this going to be handled, as Central Wikia and its translations are not like Star Wars or such, but I see no reason why not to enable iw links. :) --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 15:55, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
Can i add a few words ?
Like Jack is saying, you only have one account.
But you have user page on every wikia wikis where you are contributing.
Myself for exemple, i have a user page here on Central : User:TulipVorlax
I also have a user page on two french wikia : c:fr.guildwars:Utilisateur:TulipVorlax and c:fr.3d:Utilisateur:TulipVorlax. Thoses two pages could also be linked using the english namespace name (User).
I also have user page on many other english wikia : c:guildwars:User:TulipVorlax but i can't remember all of them.
All thoses user pages dont mean i have multiples accounts since it is the same username with the same password, same email and in most cases the same preferences.
