Is anybody working on OAuth for MediaWiki? Because if not I might put something together (i.e., start putting together design documents based on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OAuth).

That OAuth page is actually quite old.
You should read over all the mailing list and Talk:OAuth topics. Especially the stuff on writing this type of auth into core as an abstract system. As well please take a good long read over: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OAuth/Issues
Also note I don't think we've had a real discussion over OAuth yet. The OAuth discussions I've tried to spark up haven't gone far. And whoever is in the subgroup here that actually understands OAuth haven't even had a discussion over it.
