            Bug ID: 72174
           Summary: action=help shows a "Central login" message on every
                    page when extension CentralAuth is used
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
               URL: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: API

Every page of action=help (e.g. https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php) makes
calls to lots of Special:CentralAuthLogin on different wikis, and shows a
message:

Central login
You are centrally logged in as <User>. Reload the page to apply your user
settings.

And if you reload the page or load any other action=help page, just the same
happens.

This is probably due to the fact that action=help treats you as logged-out,
while CentralAuth has cookies to detect you should be logged in.
