--- Comment #59 from Platonides <[email protected]> 2012-03-15 22:16:32 UTC --- That feature was requested, and later coded by me. Yes, I still consider it valueble (despite not being 'pretty', as already discussed elsewhere). Sure, few people complained about its removal but don't many people argued to it, either, so that's not a strong reason. Going back to autocreation, it'd be really easy to stop account autocreation, and instead require a manual clic on login. I think there's even a configuration variable for that. But then, there would be lots of complaints about edits done as IP because "autocreation isn't working" (which would be worse than this bug). We can reduce it by disabling only autocreation, while keeping global login to sites where you already have an account. Nonetheless, that would still reveal a number of users IPs. And it would also damage, for instance, the experience of switching to Wikimedia Commons from your home wiki. Philippe Verdy, can you design an appropiate interface for that? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
