Note: all this is en.wiki-specific. Also, quite adventitious/occasional; most of that text has been killed, as far as I know. > 2. The default message under "username" to be set to read (roughly): "Your > username will appear frequently and publicly on the site. Consider carefully > whether to use a real name or pseudonym." This is not valid for all wikis. > 1. Specific messages created so that text can be placed between capcha and > "username", and (in small font) below each of the "username" and "re-enter > password" boxes. At present it seems that messages can only be placed at the > end of the page, and under the "email" box. Cluttering the account creation interface more seems a very bad idea. The general idea of making it easier to customise the account creation page in a less aggressive way has some value, but after re-reading this bug I don't see any acceptable proposal here.
