I personally think it's "dumb" to use a real name on the internet - or the same alias on all sites - but that's just my opinion, and people are welcome to use whatever name they like. Never said there was. If I wanted everyone to know exactly who I was, I would use my full name everywhere I went. I think it's dumb to have every site you use with the same username. My bank, emails, etc are never the same or made public. I do, however, use the same username for all non-Facebook social sites as there's generally much cross-over of users (and the same interactions) between sites in a fandom. I make it clear who I am so there's no confusion of who I am (many people link between these anyway). These sites have little personal information (you can find more information about me via Google than social sites including Facebook).

Much of the context of what I posted above was directed to having multiple accounts on a single wiki. RansomTime provided me with some reasons a user might want multiple accounts of which I can understand.

Though I disagree with the need for multiple accounts across Wikia, people do it. It's not wrong. I just don't see the need to being that discreet with something as simple as editing wikis with an account that's not even connected to yourself. If you find it that important to hide the fact an account edits certain wikis but not others, precede as you wish.
