Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I have been blocked from logging into Wikitech using my Developer account due to not having adding an email address to the account. Please reset my password so that I can continue using my Developer account and add my email address to the account.

As per the password reset instructions, to verify my identity a password reset request file can be found at bastion-eqiad1-01.bastion.eqiad.wmflabs:/home/ollieshotton/password-reset-request.txt containing the link to this task.

Confirmed:

Which e-mail do you want to have attached to your developer account? The @wikimedia.de one attached to your SUL account? Note that developer account emails will be visible publicly.
