Users are BoyWiki users who have completed the registration process and have been granted user rights. To prevent vandalism, editing rights are not granted automatically on BoyWiki. You must become a User to add new articles or edit existing entries.

Each registered user has a user page which he may maintain as he sees fit, as long as the base guidelines are met. Opinions and reviews may be put online to share with the community and even linked to from other articles, with the understanding that user pages are also licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License.

To become a user follow the instructions listed below.

BoyWiki has streamlined our registration procedure. If you wish editing rights on BoyWiki, go to the new registration form and request a new account.


If you do not included an email address on the form, please include what username and password you wish to use as part of the statement about why you would like to be a part of BoyWiki in the expandable field at the bottom of the page.

  • Note: Each new user applicant’s request is routinely reviewed by the BoyWiki Counsel (which is comprised of the curators of all three wikis) to ensure that any perspective user has not already been banned from one of the other language Wikis (French and German) or any other Free Spirits resource. This process may take up to 48 hours or longer.
