Hello colleagues,

I have started an RfC here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/ wiki/Requests_for_comment/Account_creation_logs

This RfC is not intended to cast a negative light on communities and individuals who are making good-faith efforts to welcome new users by placing welcome messages on the new users' talk pages. The emphasis on the RfC is on whether changes should be made to the privacy of account creation logs, which appears to affect the privacy of logged-in users who are reading Wikimedia wikis which they have not previously visited while logged in. I made proposals in the RfC regarding how new users may be welcomed.

Regards,
