Hi, By popular demand, mediawiki/ cloaks are now available for all developers with access to commit to svn. There will probably be future exceptions made if we have lots of artists and translators who want to get cloaks too but initially we're using this as an indicator of contributions.
To get such a cloak, make an edit somewhere on mediawiki.org saying "I am [[User:Xyz]] and my nick on IRC is xyz". Your userpage is a good choice. You can then revert this edit and then send a link to the diff to one of the IRC Group Contacts when you request your cloak. This is anyone of seanw, Rjd0060, kibble or dungodung on IRC. Please check idle times and contact one who is active. Once they have confirmed your access and identity (you'll need to state your on-wiki username on IRC too and be identified to NickServ) you'll be cloaked with mediawiki/On-Wiki-Username or MediaWiki/On-Wiki-Username (your choice). The reason this has taken so long to come through is because we were waiting on our developer to add features to verify this sort of cloak automatically to the cloak request system. Unfortunately we seem to have lost touch with him so are switching to doing all cloaks manually.
