--- Comment #4 from T. Gries <[email protected]> ---
Hi, thanks for your explanation . Now I fully understand, what you mean.

I checked it again. It is true, that Yahoo returns an OpenID such as

https://me.yahoo.com/myyahoousername#50fc0

but you can login (on E:OpenID-powered MediaWikis) with
https://me.yahoo.com/myyahoousername . I just successfully checked this; I do
not know, why Yahoo used the #part - perhaps to avoid caching.

Url parts after the "#" do not matter, and are not transmitted, as far as I
know (for example, some client-side en/decryption methods rely on this.)

Thanks again, I think it's clever to have this information here, but staying as
"resolved invalid".
