Description Church of emacs 2009-01-09 12:06:38 UTC
It'd be nice to be able to filter the log a bit more: not only to filter by the bureaucrat performing the rename action, and not only the user name before the renaming takes place, but also by the user name *after* the user has been renamed.

Oh, and by the way: I think the input fields are a bit confusing (that's not only the case with renameuser, but with most logs). The username before is called "Title" and it has to be prefixed with a "user:" - that's not very intuitive. Perhaps longer but more explanatory fields descriptions would be better. Something like: "user performing the rename", "user being renamed (has to be prefixed with '{{ns:2}}:')" and "username after the rename action (has to be prefixed with '{{ns:2}}:')"

The field names are for all logs identical. A description of the fields could be done in [[MediaWiki:Renameuserlogpagetext]]. Either locally per project or with a bette text in the extension itself. But this should go into another bug report.
