Hi Green Giant, There is no delete option in Wikipedia for user to delete their accounts. There are thousand of users which want to delete their account but they can not do this due to there is no delete option. Please add delete feature in wikipedia so user's can delete there account. Thanks
Regards, William Russell

- William, thank you for the message but that decision is not mine to make. If there are indeed thousands of users wanting this, they should lobby the developers to implement this feature but please note it is a very old question - see phab:T34815 for one such request. If you wish to stop using your account, all you have to do is stop logging in. I believe there are literally tens of thousands of almost-unused accounts. —Green Giant (talk) 10:30, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

- Some old web browsers will not be able to read the Wikimedia wikis. This is because they use an insecure way to connect to them. This means that we get less security for everyone else too. This affects about 0.08% of all traffic to the Wikimedia wikis. This affects for example those who read Wikipedia on a PlayStation 3. [2][3]
- The new filters for edit review tools and interface for watchlists will leave beta. Because there is no new MediaWiki version this week it will happen on 25 June for most wikis. For the rest it will happen in early July. [4][5]
- All wikis that have not already done so will switch to use the Remex parsing library on 5 July. This is to replace Tidy. You can help fix remaining errors. [6]
