The following can be used to explain to users on the list about the policy and what is required of them for it.

Discord

Hello, as part of a new security policy, we've been going around and ensuring that privileged Wikidot accounts have secure passwords as a safeguard against attacks. Anybody who has moderator or administrator permissions on the main site, O5, or one of the three official sandboxes will need to be in compliance with the policy.

The password requirements are as follows:
* The password must be **at least 32 characters** in length.
* The password must be **randomly generated**.
* The password must **not be reused**. This password should not be the same as for any other account you have, past or present.

Remember to keep the password somewhere secure so you don't forget it. Don't just keep it in your browser's "saved passwords" store. We recommend you use a secure password manager. Two such services are Bitwarden and 1Password.

**Do not share the password with me.** Once you have changed your password to a value that meets the requirements, affirm that you have done so and we can check your name off the list.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
