See bug 57 at
http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57. The
code is available for this, but there are social issues involved in
deciding who gets to keep their name when more than one person is
using that name on different wikis.
A solution might be
Starting from now, every long-time users may register for a new
"meta-login", available everywhere. Since metalogin list is empty,
first in, first served.
Newcomers will automatically have "meta-login", so there is no issues
for them. Of course, they should be mass-mail to all long-time users to
warn them
Possible variations include:
- In order to favour long-time users, meta-login for newcomers will be
delayed so that long-time have time to register their name.
Why, simply disallow registration of a metalogin if any login of such
name exists in any wikipedia/wikimedia namespace.
Otherwise, yes, what you said.
