In the Wiki:Technical Meeting Agenda 28 December 2010, there was some concern expressed about MediaWiki or the wiki.familysearch.org default to make public and display the username rather the display name for example https://wiki.familysearch.org/en/Special:ListUsers. After talking with the engineers over the Wiki, they said that it was the default code that MediaWIki came with and if it could be changed it would require a "Core Change" to change it. I submitted an enhancement request and maybe that change will be made. [[User:JonesWD|Warren]] 13:15, 4 January 2011 (MST)
