Set up an account on the Wiki, with the same name as your LessWrong account. Then make a user page for it. After a day, LW will automatically use that to make your profile page. (Thanks to gwern for informing me about this.)

Thank you. I'm just creating http://wiki.lesswrong.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=User:Gunnar_Zarncke and hope that it will get linked to http://lesswrong.com/user/Gunnar_Zarncke/

Halt. I have a problem here: Saving doesn't seem to work. The page stays empty and I can't leave the edit area.. Same for my talk page. The wiki appears to be slow overall.

Sounds like you've been hit by the edit filter: I've been trying out disabling page creation for users younger than 3 or 4 days. It's supposed to be giving you a warning explaining that, though.

Indeed. Now it works. There definitely was no warning or anything related.

Try again, maybe? I haven't had a problem with the wiki before...
