--- Comment #1 from Brion Vibber <[email protected]> --- Quite simply, people are allowed to have multiple accounts, and since we don't use email as a primary key there's no strong reason to forbid using the same email as long as you can validate it. This does have the downside that we can't easily allow 'login' or 'password reset' to accept the email instead of / in addition to the username. Using an email seems much more fashionable these days than picking your own username and logging in with it. A switch could possibly be made to prevent new such signups. If this is something we would want on Wikimedia sites we'd probably need to consider a migration path before doing anything more. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
