Hi
I've edited before quite some time ago; however, my ISP canceled out their email service. This is a new account, since I can no longer access my old account. I last used my old account quite a number of years ago and I lost the password.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit. Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87". If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text   at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. Thank you. Longhair\talk 21:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

Hi Longhair My ISP no longer services the email extension which my old username is under. I do not have my password, so I cannot reopen my old account. Do you have a way of accomplishing reopening my old account? DrMies might remember me, but it was a long time ago. Runforfun10k (talk) 22:43, 5 September 2021 (UTC)


 * No. Account security is not something administrators can usually assist with, so if you've forgotten the password, and your ISP has let the domain expire or similar, you're out of luck perhaps. That aside, your choice of new username resembles an organisation so you'll need to choose another username and request an unblock to continue editing. The details in the block notice above will provide instructions on how to proceed from here in the instance you cannot recover your previous account. -- Longhair\talk 23:35, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
