By the sounds of it, the logging on will (probably) be
done with your
regular Wikipedia account. I suspect linking will be done with a
phabricator: prefix. I've looked at the beta version, and it seems easy
enough to report bugs, and seems like an improvement on the old system.

Subject: Re: [Wikitech-ambassadors] Phabricator is coming,Bugzilla is
leaving
Quim, can you point me to a well-written, useful page that describes the
steps needed to report a bug in Phabricator? This needs to include the
steps to register an account (assuming that is necessary) all the way
through to how to link to the bug on the WM wiki where it may be being
discussed.

This intro in the
http://fab.wmflabs.org homepage answers to your
questions, and it will be kept in the Wikimedia Phabricator instance in
production:
Getting Things Done
Wikimedia Phabricator is a collaboration platform to plan projects,
complete
tasks, and solve problems. Building
better open source software is our primary
purpose. Non-technical
projects are welcome as well.
So yes, the door is open, and technically there is nothing stopping to
non-technical teams to request a Phabricator project already now. However,
currently we are not pitching this idea strongly because we expect
enough... entropy with the huge wave of Bugzilla users that will come at
once by Day 1. We'd rather let these tech users smooth the path for the
rest.
Conclusion: let's focus first in making sure that Phabricator works as a
replacement of Bugzilla, a goal that undoubtedly will help non-technical
users and projects in the near future.
