Clicking on thePreferences link in the upper right while logged in allows you to change your preferences.You will be presented with the User profile section, as well as a bar of tabs across the top for changing other types of settings.
Note that some of the preferences discussed here are added by extensions and are not a part of MediaWiki core.
| Brukernavn: | Your user name. Only trusted users can change your username. |
| Medlem i følgende grupper: | A list of theuser groups you are in. |
| Tilkoblede apper: | On Wikimedia wikis, this link allows you to manage external applications that are permitted to access your account.SeeHelp:OAuth for more information. |
| Antall redigeringer: | How many edits you have made. Not all wikis will have this.SeeHelp:User contributions#Number of edits |
| Registreringstidspunkt: | The time your account was registered. |
| Endre passord | see below |
| Global konto: | see below |
| Global konto: | Provides a link toSpecial:CentralAuth, displaying statistics about your user account across all Wikimedia wikis. |
| Tofaktorautentisering: | Manage two factor authentication. |
| Globale innstillinger: | Manage global preferences. |
To change your password, enter your old password in the first box and your new password in the last two.If you want this site to remember your login, checkRemember my login on this computer.Note that this function requires you to have cookies enabled in your browser, and if your cookie is cleared or expires you will no longer be remembered.
From your preferences you can select what language you would like the interface to be in.Only the buttons like 'edit' and 'talk', in addition to a few pages in the sidebar, will be affected.The main text of the pages will not be changed by this for the vast majority of pages, although there are a few pages where it will, like some in the Wikimedia Meta Wiki.
Registered users can customize their signature (the part between the two hyphens and the timestamp, that is, the text displayed on the link pointing to your username) by changing the field "Signatur:" in theirpreferences.By default, anything you enter there will be wrapped with[[ ]].To use a special linking (without this automatic link), you have to enable “Behandle signaturen som wikitekst (uten automatisk lenke til din brukerside)”. Then you can add Wiki markup and also HTML (as far as allowed on the wiki) as you like, but the maximum length is 255 characters.Please note that striking signatures are often disliked by other users.
Note that if you customize your signature, you should avoid displaying the identity of another unrelated user account, unless you also own this account or are explicitly authorized by this user: the link should unambiguously point to your effective user page or talk page on the local wiki.However, changing your signature will not override the username that is recorded in page histories.Some wikis may also have defined a restricting policy about the usage of external links or images in signatures.Look at the policies documented and on enforced your local wiki about user accounts and identities.
If you enableBehandle signaturen som wikitekst (uten automatisk lenke til din brukerside) but don't add any customized signature string, you'll sign with your unlinked username.
The most commonBehandle signaturen som wikitekst (uten automatisk lenke til din brukerside) customizations are the following:
| Purpose | Wikitext signature | Resulting signature display (generated by four tildes) |

On Wikimedia wikis, theBeta features tab allows you to enable experimental features before they are made available to everyone.If you choose to turn on any of these features, you should be prepared to encounter bugs and problems, and you may see sudden changes in the way the feature looks or works as development continues.
Each feature has a "discussion" link next to it, so you can offer your suggestions or report any problems.
The following Beta Features are available:
These features are only available on some wikis:
These features are beta features on some wikis while enabled for everyone on all others:
This section of your preferences allows you to control what notifications you receive and how you receive them.
If you opt-out of any type of notifications, then these notifications generated while you were opted-out are not generated for you and not stored in databases.Opt-in will not display them afterwards.The only notifications that may be displayed are the ones that existed before the opt-out.

You will still receive notifications if a muted user writes or participates on your user talk page. Watchlist behavior and emails are not affected by the mute list.
The muted user will still receive a successful mention notification, if they've enabled that preference.A user's mute list is private from all other users on the wiki, including administrators or any other functionary.
Muting pages is possible for "page linked" notifications.
You can mute "page linked" notifications for a page by typing the page name into the box at the bottom of thenotifications preferences.
When you start typing the page titles will autocomplete.
