Read both OAuth 2 (and it's Bearer and MAC specs) and the OAuth 1 RFC.
I would probably avoid reading the PHP code for it. I have a feeling that it's going to do nothing but give you some wrong ideas about how OAuth should be implemented.

Yeah I've noticed. I decided to start with reading the OAuth IETF document
first so I'm totally familiarized with the protocol. Then I'm going to look at the PHP extension (although in the long run I don't want to have it as a dependency), and finally I'm going to look through the mailing list and other stuff. Then I'll draft some stuff and put it out here for discussion.

Is anybody working on OAuth for MediaWiki? Because if not I might put
something together (i.e., start putting together design documents based on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/****OAuthhttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/**OAuth <http://www.mediawiki.**org/wiki/OAuthhttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OAuth
).

That OAuth page is actually quite old.
You should read over all the mailing list and Talk:OAuth topics. Especially the stuff on writing this type of auth into core as an abstract system. As well please take a good long read over: https://www.mediawiki.org/****wiki/OAuth/Issueshttps://www.mediawiki.org/**wiki/OAuth/Issues <https://www.**mediawiki.org/wiki/OAuth/**Issueshttps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OAuth/Issues
Also note I don't think we've had a real discussion over OAuth yet. The OAuth discussions I've tried to spark up haven't gone far. And whoever is in the subgroup here that actually understands OAuth haven't even had a discussion over it.
