Using the "by email" button (to the right of the "Create new account" button), the wiki creates the new account and sets a random/temporary password and mails that to the user. I think that's the easiest way to go about setting up the new accounts (less extra email by humans).
Do we need to indicate somewhere (here?) when we've created a new user [once we have the prospective users' emails going to all the admins] so the second or third person to have time to get to the email doesn't create the user again?
- Actually, it seems like the wiki prevents you from duplicating user names, so we should be OK--as long as the new user hasn't chosen a username already in use :-)
We (jake) need to get a link to New User on Special:Userlogin so that everyone finds New User and the instructions. After the novel is done, I guess :D
