--- Comment #3 from SpeedyGonsales <[email protected]> --- No problem at all, Andre. > Could you elaborate why you would do that, and what your aim is? What? Create account? - I would like to create account because user asked me to. - He asked me to because he can not do it himself. - He can not do it because of MediaWiki:Titleblacklist - That is already written in original bugreport > And after reading this twice I still fail to understand which steps to perform in which order, in order to reproduce the problem. Sorry. :-/ - Maybe we can go together through original bugreport: "Account TCN7JM was created on most WMF wikis except one or two, due to rules in MediaWiki:Titleblacklist." That means, "Account TCN7JM was created on most WMF wikis", but not on all wikis, due to rules in MediaWiki:Titleblacklist. "Before MW 1.22 it was possible for admin to create account for user (simpler than changing MediaWiki:Titleblacklist)." That means, in earlier versions of MW it was possible for admin to create account for user which user himself/herself could not open. "Today I got following: "Account creation error Cannot create account: the requested username is already taken in the unified login system." That means, instead of MW creating new account, it miserably fails. "Tried twice, thought that only filing bug report here will help, but workaround solved problem (created temp name and renamed it to wished name - TCN7JM)." That means I tried twice to create account, but MW repeatedly failed to do what is ordered to. Well, good thing is that behavior is consistent, but it would be nicer if behavior would be consistently smart than otherwise. "Anyhow, that should not happen, as check for wanted user name on local wiki gave: "User account "TCN7JM" is not registered." Finally, that means MW fail should not happen.
