Description Purodha Blissenbach 2011-03-21 08:49:54 UTC
I suggest a slight rewording of
MediaWiki:Centralauth-login-global
from: 'Also log me in to other projects of {{int:Centralauth-groupname}}'
to:  'Also log me in to the other wikis of {{int:Centralauth-groupname}}'

One reason is that you log in to a wiki - a project is somewhat different
from  a wiki, it is bigger and more abstract.

The reason for the insertion of "the" is that you are logged in to all
wikis.
Comment 1 Purodha Blissenbach 2011-03-21 09:10:09 UTC
The same applies to the related mssages:
MediaWiki:Centralauth-logout-progress
MediaWiki:Centralauth-login-progress

Changes to the different messages in internationalisation file

Proposed patch to changing the different system messages as proposed by the bug reporter.

You do have the point there, the inconsistency between "projects" and "wikis" does make some people confused sometimes. Thank you!

Not all wikis, but most of them. See bug 14407.

r28147
Comment 5 Robin Pepermans (SPQRobin) 2011-07-08 03:26:08 UTC
The revision is r91706 :)

Also, "the" is a bit wrong. You're not logged in to all other wikis. Maybe leave it out again, or include "most" or something?
