Today I created a new user account for the Arch Wiki by clicking on the "create account" link on the upper right corner, filling in my information, waiting for the confirmation mail, and clicking on the confirmation link therein.
However I get this message:
Confirm email address
Invalid confirmation code. The code may have expired.
(see also this screenshot).
On IRC I didn't get any answer, so I'm posting this here.
Have I missed a step?

Is there an actual problem with the login or editing e.g. your user page? The account seems to be created properly (see here), but the email address is not set. I have no idea about the cause, but you might try to cure the symptom: go to Special:Preferences and under "Email options" try to set the email address again.

Thanks, I noticed that I had JavaScript disabled first - but after enabling it, there was a link in red and well visible in my preferences for confirming the mail again.
The link that was sent to me by mail afterwards worked.
