Summary: Email address not returned in user options
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
URL: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MediaWikiAuth
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: API
AssignedTo: roan.katt...@home.nl
ReportedBy: greenrea...@hotmail.com
CC: bryan.tongm...@gmail.com, vasi...@gmail.com
I'm trying to write Extension:MediaWikiAuth, which authenticates against a
third-party MediaWiki and then creates a corresponding local account if
successful.
Obviously, it'd be nice if the user's options were transferred as well.
Unfortunately, the user's email address does not appear to be available through
the API, although it is visible if you actually load the preferences page. It
would be useful if it was, perhaps as an additional parameter in
userinfo/options.
