Talk:OpenID provider

Early thoughts

 * Yet another wiki (users.wikimedia.org)? Blehhh.
 * Use Meta-Wiki?
 * Use Commons?
 * Really depends on whether a separate domain is absolutely necessary, I suppose. Are there security concerns here?
 * Tangentially related: Requests for comment/Global scripts.
 * GlobalProfile definitely needs some consideration.
 * This page should probably be located at Requests for comment/OpenID provider.
 * s1 --> scheme 1 seems a bit strange. I'd expect version to be used here instead, but maybe this is OpenID terminology? On the other hand, OpenID itself is versioned, so perhaps scheme is a more sane word choice. Dunno.

Overall, this page looks fine. Thanks for putting it together.

But generally (Wikimedia-wide), we need to think about where we want global things to be. Things in this case refers to global user pages, JavaScript gadgets, Scribunto modules, wiki templates, CSS/JS user subpages, user watchlists, etc. Ideally each of these pieces wouldn't have its own wiki. We already have global wikis (Meta-Wiki, Commons, and now Wikidata). If these can be re-used, they absolutely should be, in my opinion. --MZMcBride (talk) 04:25, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
