User:Create User Script

[edit] Templates that the script uses

You can affect the output of the script by changing these

• Template:WelcomeNewUser
• Template:CreateUserStub
• MediaWiki:Confirmemail_body

Unicode characters are fine, but delimiter characters (e.g., '":;/\ etc) should not be used.

[edit] Next

• Create the NextToUpload directory automatically
• Move all pictures in the current directory to a backup directory
• Get rid of sandbox
• Support for accents, and other unicode

[edit] Bugs/Features

• Should move page rather than copy pasting
• Sandbox should be under the user space rather than under the article
• The script should actually use category with pipes so that the name shows up right
• Close and reopen photobooth after we capture the photo
• When the person already exists, overwritez rather than uploading
• Somehow the Pictures/Photo Booth/NextToUpload directory got removed ... need to isolate the steps that lead to this and fix it
• Fix up the email that goes out
  • would rather have it go out from "no-reply@icannwiki.org"
  • ask people to update their bios with a link to their page
• Fix all the legacy user pages (figure out how to display the user list)
