When you visit [[testwiki:Special:MWOAuthManageMyGrants/manage/34]], the user interface makes reference to "wiki project ID". This is problematic. Generally, this is a complete foreign term to all users. Even very experienced users will not know for sure off-hand that "wiki project ID" refers to essentially the project's database name. "Wiki project IDs" are confusing, foreign, and inconsistent. For example: enwiki is for en.wikipedia.org while: commonswiki is for commons.wikimedia.org and: mediawikiwiki is for mediawiki.org. Users can easily assume it is "enwikipedia" or "commonswikimedia" or "mediawiki". Given that this naming system is basically broken and is super-confusing to users, OAuth's user interface should probably use something saner such as wiki domain names. Users can copy and paste these from their URL bar, they're hyper-familiar to users, and the only real issue you need to catch is "www.mediawiki.org" vs. "mediawiki.org".
This bug is closely related to bug 55714.
