Bug ID: 48389
Summary: login issue with add language links widget
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized

"Whenever I try to add an interwiki link by following the "Add link" link in
the "Languages" section, the following error message pops up: "You need to be
logged in. You need to be logged in on this wiki and in the central data
repository to use this feature." However, if I visit Wikidata it seems I am
already logged in there with my global login. This problem occurs not just with
English Wikipedia but with other Wikipedias. Is this a known issue? Regardless,
this error message is supremely unhelpful; it doesn't provide any indication as
to what the "central data repository" is or how to log in there. —Psychonaut
