            Bug ID: 358514
           Summary: [UserBase Wiki] Make registration possible to find,
                    fix registration links
           Product: www.kde.org
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other

                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

1. Two pages link to https://userbase.kde.org/Special:UserLogin/signup which
confuses new users who are trying to figure out how to register. The messages
need to be changed. Instead they should link to
https://userbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Special:OpenIDLogin

https://userbase.kde.org/MediaWiki:Nosuchuser

2. It is impossible to quickly find how to register. Please solve this by
editing the skin so that in "PERSONAL TOOLS" instead of "OpenID / Identity
login" it says "Register" because it seems an openid/kdeid/whatever login
results in the requirement to create a username which is what "registration" is
to people. OpenID and "identity" is unknown and makes people think they have to
look elsewhere. If you rename it into "Register", then people will quicker
realize that they have to read the wall of text below the openid form (by the
way, you might want to make the kde identity login the one that is pre-selected
and on the left).

Ideally also remove the openid icon. it's confusing. people who like openid
will cheer when they go to registration but people who just want to register
and have no clue about openid are confused by the icon.

3. If you're at it, you could remove the layout-distrubing language icon and
padding from the "English" (language) link. See http://i.imgur.com/3qGbNOP.png
for how it could be...

Reproducible: Always
