It should work everywhere ConfirmEdit can throw the image CAPTCHA at someone: account creation, login, the edit form, etc. (It won't modify the simple math CAPTCHA, and so on.) The original enhancement request for this ( https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14230) goes back to 2008. A patch was submitted back in January by lalei: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/44376/ If you want to test this out yourself before it's deployed, you can use http://toro.wmflabs.org/wiki/Main_Page Forgive my awful pun in the subject line, -- Steven Walling https://wikimediafoundation.org/ _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
