Bug ID: 60756
Summary: creating a user account using the "Create account"
link at the top doesn't create a sandbox account
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Translate

Creating a user account using the "Create account" link at the top doesn't
create a sandbox account.
A common user scenario for this is the case of calls-to-action in blog posts or
emails that invite people to translate a project by linking directly to
Special:Translate. Creating an account using the top link doesn't put the new
account in the sandbox, but creates a usual account without translator
permission.
Clicking the link for getting a permission under the editor in the TUX
interface brings the user Special:MainPage, and then clicking the green
Translate button on the main page brings the user again to Special:Translate
and not to the stash. This is confusing and at least one user complained about
this.
(All of the above was tested in translatewiki.net.)
