            Bug ID: 47530
           Summary: Open username policy in tooltip
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: User login
          Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
          Reporter: swall...@wikimedia.org

In some current forms (e.g. English Wikipedia, French, others) and the new
redesign currently being drafted in core
(https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/57823/), there is either reference to or a
link to the username policy. 

Especially in our redesign, it probably makes sense to have a pithy description
of the username policy provided by a tooltip. When we've ran remote usability
tests, we've seen users go to the username policy page and then bounce back to
the account creation page. This is validated by the data from
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schema:ServerSideAccountCreation: the logs for
which currently show that the username policy is the number three referrer for
account creation on English Wikipedia.
