Description Umherirrender 2009-05-14 19:29:09 UTC 
When typing a wrong captcha there is no message who say that. I will only see a new captcha again. (by skipcaptcha for new url)

By a wrong captcha on special:login i will get MediaWiki:Wrongpassword, but the original message are not say any about the wrong captcha. en.wp has customized the message to say that the confirmation code can be wrong: [[MediaWiki:Wrongpassword]].

It is useful, when there is a better information, by typing a wrong captcha. Thanks.

This is a more generic problem in LoginForm, also affecting bots logging in through the API (which also get a WrongPass error when a CAPTCHA is required, but have no way to answer the CAPTCHA).
