[Mediawiki-l] Interwiki userlist

[Kenny Debrauwer]

Hi,

Currently I created the wikis without the single user list feature. I
managed to have them use the same images though. My idea is having 4 wikis,
which are translations (localized versions) of each other, that use the same
user list. So basically I don't need to manage users on 4 different wikis.

That extension is the same as SUL (Single Sign-On), which is NOT what 
Kenny asked.
It's a system for wikis where you have one account on each and you want 
to merge them. If you are creating the wikis, they should be configured 
to share the user db from the beginning. This is the method used at wikia.
