MediaWiki OAuth2 documentation: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OAuth/For_Developers

The following MediaWiki settings are available:

.. code-block:: python

SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS = {
    'mediawiki': {
        'REST_API': 'https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/rest.php',
        'USERPAGE_TEMPLATE': 'https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/{username}',
        # Identify your application with a descriptive user agent.
        # Format (generic template):
        #   <client>/<version> (<contact info>) [<extra lib>/<version> ...]
        # Contact info can be a user page URL, project URL, or email.
        # Example (bot):
        'USER_AGENT': 'CoolBot/1.2 (+https://example.org/coolbot/; [email protected]) django-allauth',
    }
}

REST_API: Base URL of the MediaWiki site's REST API. USERPAGE_TEMPLATE: Link template for linking to users. Must have a {username} format field. USER_AGENT: Custom User-Agent header sent with API requests. Wikimedia requires that automated clients send a descriptive User-Agent string with contact information. Generic defaults (e.g. python-requests/x) or absent headers may be blocked or heavily rate limited. The recommended pattern is::

    <client>/<version> (<contact>) [<library>/<version> ...]

where ``<contact>`` lets site operators reach you (URL or email). If you
run a bot, consider including the word ``bot`` (any case) so traffic can be
classified correctly. Do not spoof browser user agents.

If not set, a generic ``django-allauth`` value is used; you should override
this for production.

With the default settings, Wikimedia user identities (meta.wikimedia.org) will be used.
