Description Thehelpfulone 2013-04-26 00:03:27 UTC

When I go to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&type=signup&returnto=Main+Page&useNew=1 and make an error (username is use, non-matching passwords etc), the Header of the red error message is an the text "Login error" in bold. This isn't quite correct because the user isn't logging in yet - they're trying to create an account.

Perhaps "Account creation error" or words to that effect?

Indeed, it's more cruft from Userlogin and Create account sharing code. Patch coming.
