            Bug ID: 52265
           Summary: IRC feed - overloading of keyword "create"
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: ArticleFeedbackv5
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

When somebody uses this extension to comment on an article, the following line
appears on #fr.wikipedia (haven't checked other wikis):

10:11:52 <@rc-pmtpa> [[Spécial:Log/articlefeedbackv5]] create  * 173.32.1.11 * 
173.32.1.11 a soumis un commentaire #0500ba8... sur Grande barrière de corail :
D'après Avaaz, il existe une menace relative à l'exploitation du charbon. Je
voulais connaitre le rôle de la grande barrière de corail dans l'équilibre
écologique. Il me semble qu'elle joue un rôle essentiel : oxygène, plancton...
je ne sais plus.

The *create* keyword is already used by account creations, for example:

10:11:14 <@rc-pmtpa> [[Spécial:Log/newusers]] create  * Gerard barrault *  New
user account

Needless to say, this easily confuses all bots and tools reading from this IRC
channel. "comment" or "review" would seem a better choice.
