mw:Extension:MediaWikiAuth

Randomly stumbled on the site and saw the sitenotice. Have you looked into using mw:Extension:MediaWikiAuth to automatically migrate accounts, preferences, watchlists? Legoktm (talk) 09:14, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi Legoktm. It looks like the extension is in beta and not much activity has been tracked on the git... That's why I felt unconfortable with it. Do you know more about the stability/robustness of this extension? You have maybe a few example of successful migrations using it? Kelson (talk) 12:48, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

We used it for the en.uncyclopedia.co migration off of Wikia. It does require a core patch, but it works pretty well. Legoktm (talk) 05:03, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
