Michael added a comment. To me, Phabricator feels more searchable and keeping things in their context than Google Docs, but a Wiki sounds like not a bad idea. We should be using wikis more anyway. Now I'm wondering which wiki would be best? Probably either www.wikimedia.org

Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE added a comment. Regarding Wikibase edits not auto-creating temporary accounts: In MediaWiki core, this seems to happen in `EditPage::maybeActivateTempUserCreate()` and `EditPage::createTempUser()`; I imagine we’ll need similar code in either `MediaWikiEditEntity` or

Michael added a comment. As far as I can see, this should cover all the cases I found in a first pass. I think there are about 2 hours left in the timebox for some more in-depth investigation, if needed, or for a nicer write-up of the findings, if that is desired. TASK DETAIL
