             Bug #: 35824
           Summary: autocreation of accounts skips filter action ==
                    'createaccount'
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: AbuseFilter
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


When an existing (or newly existing) account from another wiki creates an
account on a second wiki it skips the filter action == 'createaccount'.  This
filter is useful for managing components, and it would be useful for it to not
skip that filter, alternatively for a filter akin to 'createaccount' to be made
available for the filter.

My evidence is a spam-type account was created on specieswiki and immediately
thereafter created on commonswiki bypassing the account creation filter. 
Watched live time and checked against user creation and filter logs
