[Commons-l] Commons in the CAPTCHA Hall of Shame

[Brianna Laugher]

http://www.pineight.com/rant/captcha/

Commons is listed under "confusing examples":

Wikimedia Commons links to Special:Captcha which mentions (but does
not obviously link to) Commons:Contact us which links to Commons:Help
desk, which permits anonymous posting. (Some other Wikimedia sites,
such as English language Wiktionary, use the same CAPTCHA. The English
language Wikipedia does not use a CAPTCHA at all.)

Presumably they're referring to signing up for a new account. (I think
captchas are also triggered when anon users introduce new external
links.)

Can anyone confirm or deny that enwp doesn't have the same captcha?? I
thought all WMF projects had the same one now?

cheers
Brianna
