Registration is the process of becoming a member of Wikimapia. It is not necessary to register to visit or use Wikimapia as you can perform simple actions like adding places and posting comments in a tag as an unregistered user. However, functions for unregistered users are limited, so registering to become a member is the best way to take full advantage of Wikimapia's features. Here are some examples of privileges that only a registered user may enjoy:
- The ability to delete a place (this option is available in the menu of a tag)
- Your own username and avatar (please keep these tasteful; you will be representing yourself in a worldwide community)
- Your own personal profile or user account
- Posting messages in the forum
- Sending/receiving personal Messages to and from other registered users
- The ability to vote other users based on their contributions (this feature is only available after 14 days from registration, as a measure against vandalism)
