Summary: Setting $wgLogAutocreatedAccounts to false makes
admin's jobs difficult
Product: MediaWiki
Version: wikimedia-deployment
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: User login
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: m...@everybody.org
Depends on: 19161
In order to address privacy concerns from auto-created accounts (Bug #19161),
$wgLogAutocreatedAccounts was created so that accounts which were auto-created
because of CentralAuth would not be logged.
This change makes it difficult for admins to patrol their wiki's for malicious
users since they can't see newly created accounts.
A way to handle the privacy concerns without impeding the admins' work should
be found.
