Merging Two User Accounts

Hello Nice People,

I would like to ask whether it is possible my two User accounts that I
have been using on the Wikimedia Projects.

If it is possible, kindly advise on the steps to follow.

Regards,
Stephen

Short reply: No

Long reply: There's no facility to do that in MediaWiki, you'd need to
manually change the database to do so, which is very unlikely to be done
by the system administrators of WMF servers.
