            Bug ID: 63987
           Summary: Change "Basic information" section of
                    Special:Preferences into "Account management"
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

Currently in the "Basic information" [[Special:Preferences]] section, you see
something like this:

---
Username:              Jimbo Wales
User ID:               1234
Member of groups:      Autoconfirmed users, Users
Connected apps:        Manage 123 connected applications
Number of edits:       123,456
Registration time:     12:34, 15 January 2001
Global account status: All in order!
                       Your account is active on 123 project sites.
                       (Manage your global account | View global account info)
Password:              Change password
                       [ ] Remember my login on this browser (for a maximum of
                           30 days)
                       [ ] Always use a secure connection when logged in
---

This is problematic because most of this info (edit count, registration time,
etc.) isn't related to setting preferences; it's out of scope.

Proposal for this bug: change "Basic information" into "Account management" (or
similar wording) and include only:

---
* Manage 123 connected applications
* Manage your global account | View global account info
* Change password
[ ] Always use a secure connection when logged in
---

I'll file a separate bug about where to move the non-preferences information.
