He forgot his password after he changed it a few times. Wikix has 180,000+ edits, see the rename logs: https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Speciaal%3ALogboeken&type=renameuser&user=CaAl&page=&year=&month=-1&tagfilter= The bureaucrat got an error when renaming this account: "database lock time out, please try again". Wikix said he can't login as Wikix so there definitely went something wrong.
