Description Happy-melon 2009-04-05 16:36:26 UTC Nasty bug I can't confirm: essentially a user with a global account (home wiki enwiki) managed to change their enwikibooks password without changing the global account password. I can't duplicate. Comment 1 Quim Gil 2013-04-18 23:48:34 UTC It might have been the case at the time, but some years later there is little we can do.
