             Bug #: 39385
           Summary: actions by anon users are logged as actions made by
                    "Article Feedback V5"
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: ArticleFeedbackv5
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


When an anon user marks somebody else's feedback post as "useful" or
"non-useful", their action is shown in the "activity log" not under their IP
address, but under the generic name "Article Feedback V5", e.g. "Article
Feedback V5 marked this post as helpful on 12:58, 14 August 2012". This is bad,
because it implies that "Article Feedback V5" is some kind of uniform central
authority that judges feedback posts. Please change this to either show the IP
address as the agent of the action (just like logged-in user names are shown),
or some other generic string, e.g. "A non-logged-in user marked this post..."
