Could you post (somewhere) some details of what you did?
Being brand new to mediawiki and PHP and MySQL, what you are
saying gets my interest but I really have no idea what you are
talking about.
I am finding my way around but these generalize answers really do
not help me (or other new users I would presume).
Thanks Ralph

Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] Restrict account creation
I ended up implementing it as a function in LocalSettings.php and
attached it to the 'AbortNewAccount'-hook. This triggers in the
addNewAccountInternal-method of the LoginForm-class in
SpecialUserlogin.php. Seems to do the trick.
If anyone has a better, cleaner or more secure way to do it, I'm
interested.

I understand it involves
sysops manually approving new accounts, which seems cumbersome.
Is there any way to do it automatically?

We're also interested in this, especially bogus accounts using
the
".ru"
domain.
