Hello Mediawiki list,
I posted this question *in more detail at the Wikipedia Reference
Desk*<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Computing#Ca…3F>,
and the answerer suggested I forward it here. If this is not the right
place to ask this question, please let me know where to go next? Here is
what I posted at the reference desk:
*I'm on the student senate at my school, and we want to customize our
mediawiki install so it only lets someone create an
account (i.e. edit) if
their email address ends in @[school_name].edu. We also want to force their
username to be the [first].[last]@ from their email address. Later, we might
expand this to more schools, so we would want the flexibility to add other
@[school_name].edu's to have the ability to create accounts.*
*Question 1: Is that possible?*
*Question 2: Howso? Thanks! *
Thanks!
Andrew
