Bug #: 35987
Summary: Ambiguqous "Password:" header on Special:ChangeEmail
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.19
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Special pages
AssignedTo: [email protected]

[[Special:ChangeEmail]] currently
[[Special:ChangeEmail]] currently says: "Complete this form to change your
e-mail address. You will need to enter your password to confirm this change."
The password field is located right after the "New e-mail address" field and
simply titled "Password:".
The preface and this layout makes it unnecessarily easy to think it wants your
''password for your e-mail account'' and not the current wiki. (I for one
momentarily thought so despite being experienced enough to know it probably
didn't mean to.)
I suggest the "Password:" header be changed slightly, to say "Your {{SITENAME}}
password:"
