I for one would be interested in moving that extension out of beta and having an option in site configuration to require some or all users to have two factor authentication enabled. Pine On Jul 6, 2015 9:20 AM, "Alex Monk" <krenair(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Thank you Alex, I see that there is a beta version since 2012 with Google Authenticator. So does this mean that there is no chance my implementation with Latch will also be available for MediaWiki users? I will be working on this project anyway, because I already signed for it with a profesor at my university so it would be a pleasure for me if people could actually use it for securing their accounts! Thanks for your time, Paula. On Mon, Jul 6, 2015 at 7:09 PM, Tyler Romeo <tylerromeo(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks for working on this, Paula. I suggest coordinating the work plan on Phabricator. Cc'ing Chris Steipp so that he's aware of this good project. Pine On Jul 6, 2015 10:13 AM, "Paula" <paula.rm(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Just to be clear, do you mean MediaWiki or Wikimedia users (Wikimedia = Wikipedia and related sites. MediaWiki = anyone who uses the MediaWiki software)? You can make any sort of MediaWiki extension you want, even if it duplicates another extension, and people may use it. For Wikimedia, probably only one extension would be chosen. Wikimedia also generally has very picky standards for using extensions, and it can be a lot of work (and politics!) to get an extension used on Wikimedia wikis. The existing 2 factor auth extension is (AFAIK) only used on wikitech, which is kind of different from being used on other Wikimedia wikis, so most wikis have no 2 factor auth solution deployed to them. I would definitely reccomend coordinating with people working on similar extensions. Pine said: I think you misunderstand the extension status bar on mw.org. That is self-reported by the author, and the requirements are not consistently enforced. The contents of this status really has nothing to do with if the extension is actually used on Wikimedia wikis, so "taking it out of beta" would basically mean making a (rather meaningless) edit to the extension description page. --bawolff

Yes, you can add things to the Special:Preferences page. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/GetPreferences -- bawolff On Tue, Jul 7, 2015 at 11:43 AM, Paula <paula.rm(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, I've finished the extension for Mediawiki-Latch integration. Should I upload it somewhere to be reviewed? ​Thanks for your time . ​Cheers​ , Paula. On Tue, Jul 7, 2015 at 8:12 PM, Paula <paula.rm(a)gmail.com> wrote:
