Description Tyler Romeo 2013-03-22 09:53:26 UTC
There are two ways to access a list of global users in a certain group:

Special:GlobalUsers/mygrp
Special:GlobalUsers?group=mygrp

The latter doesn't work because SpecialGlobalUsers::execute() passes the value of the group parameter to Title::newFromText for some bizarre reason, which causes the group name's first letter to be capitalized, e.g., mygrp -> Mygrp.

As an example, compare:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:GlobalUsers/sysadmin
with
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:GlobalUsers?group=sysadmin
