Bug ID: 57218
Summary: Get rid of "Do not forget to change your <wiki name>
preferences."
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized

After creating an account, you are told:
== Welcome, <username>! ==
Your account has been created. Do not forget to change your <site name>
preferences.
Return to <some page>.
This is about the worst possible call to action - why would most users,
straight after creating an account, suddenly want to visit a page containing
several tabs full of settings, most of which are completely baffling to a
totally new user?
If we keep it, we need to at least get rid of "do not forget". It really
doesn't matter if you forget to change preferences.
