Extension:CentralAuth/GlobalVanishRequest
GlobalVanishRequest is a special page that allows registered users to request that their account be vanished, making any contributions the user has made no longer associated with their user name.
Configuration
[edit]At minimum the following settings need to be present in the wiki configuration for this page to be available.
$wgCentralAuthEnableGlobalRenameRequest = true;
$wgCentralAuthAutomaticVanishPerformer = 'Admin';
$wgCentralAuthAutomaticVanishPerformer in-particular is needed for the automatic vanishing feature to work.
This is a feature that automatically approves a vanish request instead of sending it to the queue to be approved by a renamer in the bureaucrat group.
To be eligible the user must have zero edits, blocks and public logs on any wikis the user is attached to.
Notes
[edit]- When users are automatically vanished their user page is not moved and redirects are suppressed by default.
- Users that are not eligible for automatic vanishing can have either of these options adjusted by the renamers when their request is being processed from the queue.
