Description Ron A. Zajac 2013-02-20 02:01:10 UTC
Conformation email sent to account. I Click on the link, I get an "Invalid confirmation code. The code may have expired." message, even though the message is only a few minutes old. Cannot confirm my email address in Wikipedia "Preferences".
Comment 1 Andre Klapper 2013-02-20 13:34:44 UTC
Please confirm that the entire code is being added to the URL, and not cropped
off at the end. If this is not the case, please provide the username of the
account on Wikipedia.
Comment 2 Ron A. Zajac 2013-02-21 09:32:24 UTC
It works now (a day later). But it's still noteworthy that Wikipedia rebuffed my confirmation attempt immediately after receipt.

Hey! Just had a flash! I submitted from Taiwan (near the dateline); possible it's a gotcha in the handling of the timestamp?
