(This is a refiling of https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33132 The developer there said that the relevant message was hard-coded into MediaWiki, so that I should post here.) When someone who isn't logged in goes to edit a page on our wiki, they see this: > You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons: > * The action you have requested is limited to users in the group: Users. > * You do not have permission to edit pages in the Page namespace. This default text isn't perfect for all situations, because when a user clicks the "submit a bug" button on our wiki, they are taken to a Special:FormEdit page (which is used as part of a SMW extension.) If they are not logged in, then they see this text: > You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason: > The action you have requested is limited to users in the group: Users. It would be nice if a there was text and a link that invited the user to log in or sign up for an account, or a redirect to the login page, especially if that page is editable by a normal user. Thanks!
See [[MediaWiki:Namespaceprotected]] for the "You do not have permission to edit pages in the Page namespace." message. See [[MediaWiki:badaccess-groups]] for the "The action you have requested is limited to users in the group: Users." message. See [[MediaWiki:permissionserrorstext-withaction]] for "You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:" message. Feel free to add a link to any of those messages on your own wiki.
