Description: wikitech-l http://article.gmane.org/gmane.science.linguistics.wikipedia.technical/55055 'Reclaiming a lost account on a private wiki: impossible' Comment: Can you enlighten me what the problem being solved here is? As I understand it the bug is that on wiki with ['*']['view']=false users can't get a password reset e-mail. How does adding a new permission that potentially restricts PasswordReset even more fix the issue that a logged out user can't view the passwordreset special page? Isn't the correct fix here to add PasswordReset to the default whitelist? ___ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list mediawiki-coderev...@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview

It's for wikis where all pages can be viewed, but only - for example Sysops - can trigger reset password. ___ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list mediawiki-coderev...@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview

No restrictions were removed or loosened here, instead you've made it easier to add restrictions. Is there another part of this fix that hasn't been committed yet? ___ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list mediawiki-coderev...@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
