Hi,
what ways to control account creation does Mediawiki 1.12 provide? I would like to have some kind of restriction mechanism, e.g. that sysop needs to approve new accounts.
I already tried
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['emailconfirmed']['edit'] = true;
without success. I can create an account without providing an email and then edit any page.
Thanks, Helmut
