Why should I register?

Do you have any advice for new members?

It says in my profile that I created 106 places. But I can only count 82. What happened to the other places I've created?

Can I see how many places I have deleted?

How do I mark my own location? Why should I?

How do I delete a message someone sent me?

When I click on someone's profile I still see his old avatar, but when I click on his avatar I get the magnified version of an entirely different photo?

Is there any way I can change my user name? I hate this one!

This is not an easy task. You really should have thought of this before registering! If you really have a good reason, you must send an e-mail administrators in WikiMapia@gmail.com. They may be able to help you. Otherwise, you have two options: 1) Learn to live with it, or 2) abandon the account and start a new, re-registering.

Someone has stolen my Wikimapia account and password. What can I do?

Send e-mail to administrators in WikiMapia@gmail.com. Ask to have your password reset. Remember that the thief may have changed your e-mail, so be prepared to give evidence that you really are the original owner of the account. And be ready to apologize for who the thief might have offended

I don't want to be part of Wikimapia any more. How do I delete my account?

Unfortunately you cannot delete your account, alternately you may want to change your password to something you will not be able to remember easily or you can stop visiting Wikimapia altogether which is even more easier.
