User Merge and Delete extension allows Wiki users with the 'userrights' permission (Bureaucrat by default) to merge one Wiki user's account with another Wiki user's account - deleting following merge is also supported. You may not delete a user without merging first - omitting the "New User" field will auto-populate the New User as User ID 1 (Usually WikiSysop) and ask you to confirm merge to Admin. Merging to Anonymous (ID0) is not supported.
