Bug ID: 47689
Summary: "Incorrect or missing confirmation code." message for
incorrect captcha could do with rewording
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: User login and signup
Assignee: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
If I enter a Captcha incorrectly on the new interface (and possibly the old
one) I get a red box with the message "Incorrect or missing confirmation code."
However, on the actual interface at
<https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&type=signup&returnto=Main+Page&useNew=1>
I'm told it's a "security check" - so a new user may not understand what the
confirmation code actually is. They may even get confused and think that
they've entered the confirmation password incorrectly.
Can we reword this to "Incorrect or missing security code" or "Failed security
check" (the latter sounds a bit too discouraging for me though).
