Bug #: 38597
Summary: MediaWiki:Asirra-edit - message needs better wording
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
URL: https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Thread:Support/About_Me
diaWiki:Asirra-edit/en_(2)

Status: NEW

Priority: Unprioritized

The message MediaWiki:Asirra-edit is misguiding.
Identifying cats steals susers time while it does not protect against automated
edit SPAM at all, no matter how many cats are identified.
I suggest to correct it to more clearly reflect reality.
For instance, "This wiki tries to protect against automated edit spam. It
requires that editors pass a test showing that they likely are not bots on each
edit. Please select just the cat photos in the box below:"
