Danish term or phrase: Brugeroprettelse
Online vejledning til oprettelse af profil. Jeg skal generelt bruge det engelske udtryk for 'oprettelse' (klik på nedenstående link for at bekræfte din brugeroprettelse) og 'at oprette' (vi sender dig denne email for at andre ikke kan oprette dig som bruger på xxx.com uden dit tilsagn). På forhånd tak for hjælpen!

Brugeroprettelse / opret(te) bruger
Account creation / Create an account


Explanation:
This is what I would use IF the context is one where a user creates an account for themselves, as in on a website. Google, YouTube, Twitter, Wikipedia, Proz.com all use "Create an account". "User creation" is, in my experience, somewhat more technical, like when an administrator creates accounts for users on a server. This distinction seems to be less common in Danish than in English: Danish websites tend to use "opret bruger", "opret konto" and "opret profil" more or less interchangeably, where websites in English will generally just use "Create (an) account".

Example sentence(s):
  • "we will send you an email with a link to validate your account"
  • "When creating your account, you must provide accurate and complete information."
