Matthew Flaschen <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #21 from Matthew Flaschen <[email protected]> --- Continuing the discussion from that Gerrit, it seems appropriate to go back to patch set 1 (making it a thin wrapper around getName() (username) or a session [deleted when browser closed] id). If more elaborate/long-lived functionality is needed, I'm inclined to agree with Adam and Tyler: It should be done (still weighing the privacy issues) in an extension. There should be a reasonable transition period to make sure any one who needs the old functionality can use the extension (e.g. EventLogging). I see EventLogging currently reads mediaWiki.user.id (the cookie in question) in one place, but I'm not sure what if anything writes it (calls mw.user.id()). There is no call in EventLogging. Relevant to part of the original report, ClickTracking was disabled entirely on all WMF wikis (7f54a47d33cf3ad59fadbf759b617ae9f865a351) a month ago. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
