[17:32:12] Reedy wondering if you could review https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/extensions/CentralAuth/+/593766/ please? :) [17:35:48] paladox: How exactly are those functions called to pass in the false? [17:35:58] As it's a no-op in the CA repo as is [17:36:32] From what i see, it does https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-CentralAuth/blob/f29b2e03bbc33981f71cde0b2f4d6603c068765c/includes/specials/SpecialGlobalRenameQueue.php#L535 which then calls https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-CentralAuth/blob/f29b2e03bbc33981f71cde0b2f4d6603c068765c/includes/specials/SpecialGlobalRenameQueue.php#L548 [17:36:48] We will be setting all that in a custom script (we just need the ability to disable the logger) [17:37:42] That's what I was meaning... The CA code isn't calling that with any other value [17:38:00] Though, I have to wonder if a config variable makes more sense [17:38:07] Do you really need to enable/disable it on a user by user basis? [17:38:20] apparently so [17:38:41] Since usernames are PII, so we will have to rename users to randomly generated usernames. [17:39:14] Sure [17:39:20] But do you only need this feature for "some" users? [17:39:34] oh, yeh [17:39:45] The other option is to have some sort of private log hidden behind a userright etc [17:39:48] ones that request info being delete [17:43:39] oh, actually. I think we could just hack up a class that extends GlobalRenameUser to override the rename method and remove log() [17:44:19] one thing i wonder is where does it log locally? [17:50:05] oh [17:50:08] found it, RenameuserSQL [18:01:31] appears that extending the class won't work as i thought it would (at least a nightmare).
