RE: Non-anonymous and Non-pseudonymous Wikipedia and GitHub

Credentials Community Group,

I started the Wikipedia article, Account Verification, at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Account_verification . I welcome you all, as interested, to participate.


Best regards,
Adam

Subject: Non-anonymous and Non-pseudonymous Wikipedia and GitHub

Credentials Community Group,

I wonder how close the state of the art is to providing non-anonymous, non-pseudonymous Wikipedia and GitHub? In my opinion, Wikipedia would be better if users had to login using verified accounts. Similarly, some GitHub projects could be advantaged by verified accounts.

The technologies being created here or similar technologies could be of use for scenarios aforementioned. I’m interested in your thoughts on these topics.


Best regards,

P.S.: Perhaps we could create a new Wikipedia article on these topics, e.g. Account Verification, which describes comparative technologies and techniques?
