Description Mr. Sharp! 2004-11-30 14:56:44 UTC I would like to see MediaWiki (and its counterpart GetWiki) include a feature that will let a user set a password hint during his registration. Comment 1 elian 2005-09-03 23:52:56 UTC there's already the function to email a new password, more isn't necessary but bad for usability. keep it simple.
