---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Yuvi Panda <yuvipanda(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, Feb 20, 2014 at 9:05 PM Hello! Account creation[1] was enabled on Wikimedia wikis a few weeks ago. There is a bug[2] in the implementation that returns status codes in all lower case ('success', 'needtoken') rather than in CamelCase ('Success', 'NeedToken'), which is what all other parts of the API use. There is a patch[3] that will make action=createaccount behave similar to the other actions. If you have code that uses action=createaccount, you might have to tweak your client to uppercase a few characters.
