OATHAuth

OATHAuth is an extension for adding two-factor authentication (2FA) to your Miraheze account.

It can be enabled by following the steps on Special:OATH. For the TOTP codes, a TOTP app is needed. There are various apps available, including, but not limited to Google Authenticator for Android, Google Authenticator for iOS and WinAuth for Windows devices. A system administrator is able to disable 2FA for any user, but non-system administrators will have a hard time if they get locked out of their account. Write down your recovery codes, and store them in a safe place.

To have multi-factor authentication enabled on your account, please contact a system administrator.

Recovery
If, unfortunately, you loose the device where the 2FA token is stored and the scratch codes, to be able to recover your account you will need to have a pre-existing Committed identity or at the discretion of a sysadmin.
