Editing Login

A '''login''' is an assumed individual [[identity]], consisting of a string that [[refer]]s to either a pseudonym used by [[no body]] or a [[real name]] used by [[some body]], often without any clue as to which.

A [[single login]] has been proposed and is being added to [[MediaWiki]].  This may be a first step to an [[interwiki identity standard]], equivalent to real-world [[w:passport]] security features that make it hard to pretend to be someone else, e.g. a political opponent, which would be a good thing since interwiki identity standard would almost eliminate the [[identity theft]] [[vandalism]], which can be very nasty

[[Trolls]] assert that this will be used mostly to support the [[sysop power structure]] in their attempts to assign [[alleged and collective identity]] to others, those who they typically label "[[trolls]]".  In effect, the primary use of this feature will be [[outing]] of those who choose not to use it:

The [[Lowest Troll]] asserts that this will be used for identity consistency between [[Development Wiki]], [[Research Wiki]] and [[Publish Wiki]] which is a good thing for identifying those users who consistently submit high-quality well researched, concise and well referred information from the seedy characters that may be [[paid troll]]s or other malicious or careless users that aim to or accidentally lower the [[grown trust]] (or credibility in language that the majority of [[Consumerium:We|us]] understand). 

One side effect of this [[outing]] effort might be some useful functionality or reliable identification of [[social network]]s across [[large public wiki]]s.
