Do we know that the Terms of Use actually have to be presented on registration? Currently the practice in MediaWiki sites is to put a link in the footer, which provides a persistent link for all users of a wiki, not just those signing up. Ryan, Coren: thoughts? If we need to put in a default blank message for legal disclaimers, let's do that and name the message appropriately. We very well might support other projects that have this same use case. I'm very much open to putting in new MediaWiki messages *where a clear use case arises*. I think it's bad idea to build in generalized "dump all warnings, rules, and instruction cruft here" messages. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
