Thanks, that was it
I added this snippet: if( $this->mRealName == '' ) { $this->mainLoginForm( wfMsg( 'wrongrealname' ) ); return false; }
I also created the message "wrongrealname" to provide the right error message

I would look at SpecialUserLogin.php in the includes directory.
I am on 1.10.0 so take these line number references as needed ..
In SpecialUserLogin.php around line 201 is a function addNewAccountInternal(). After the global statements the first bit looks to be sure that the 'domain' in the email is good. If not it kicks it out.
So as a test I added this
##DSIG if( $this->mDomain == '' ) { $this->mainLoginForm( wfMsg( 'wrongpassword' ) ); return false; }
Which is basically the same code except that I am looking at the
domain
and seeing if it is empty. This forces the process to kick out a null email (no domain no valid email).
You could do the same thing with name and other fields as required.
Note: If you make these changes you will also need to remove the text
at
the bottom of the create form that says these fields are not required.
This could be made as an extension so that a switch in the
localsettings
would enable/disable this feature.
Hope this helps

Thanks Rob, that's what I figured and I agree that in the core we wouldn't want it set by default but, wouldn't you agree it would be nice to
have
it as a flag?
In any case, were would I make the change to make it a requirement?

K> How can I make the "Real Name"
All I know is I do $wgEnableEmail=$wgEnableUserEmail=$wgAllowRealName=false; to protect users _against_ leaving their real names and addresses
in
my politically sensitive http://radioscanningtw.jidanni.org/ , assuming that it might be tapped/eavesdropped/confiscated by the authorities one day.
Great, waste his time by posting the complete anti-solution to his
question?
With respect *to the question*, it's not possible out of the box, although you could fairly easily hack the code so that form
submission
required entry of a real name. This isn't necessarily something we'd want in core, however.
