  You could temporarily set

  Thanks Bartosz,

 That is a variable I didn't know about:
 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgPasswordReminderResendTime

 I actually used maintenance/CreateAndPromote.php
 <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:CreateAndPromote.php> to force set
 a
 new password; and instructed the user to login and change it.

 Note: the user didn't receive any reset emails because the site IP address
 was listed on at least one RBL and their email service provider
 dropped/blocked the email messages.  After a delay, I received the bounce
 notifications in my spam folder (using GMail as my service provider).

 Hi altogether,

 thank you for your help so far. I have decided that this problem consumes
 too much of my time, so I stopped it for now. I have to get a much better
 understanding of the MediaWiki content model.

 My hope was that somebody will tell me: this is really simple, studpid, you
 have to do this and that and it will be working. This is obviously not the
 case, it seems that a MediaWiki page can only update itself and not other
 pages as far as I see.

 Thank you again,
 greetings,

  Manuela
