Comment (by hexmode):

> Minor, we should add a link to sign up for LDAP if needed, in the
statement.

Which statement? I assume you mean this one:
https://dev.wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Wikitoldap-introduction

Those messages should be edited on-wiki to adjust them to point to
id.osgeo.org.

> Now the confusing part is what happened after, upon trying to login
again the username was filled in 'Wiki-', which didn't work. Changing it
to my LDAP username works but then I get a prompt to 'Merge old wiki
accounts with LDAP accounts' which isn't well explained and doesn't work.

Could you clarify "didn't work"? strk and others have tested this
multiple times before we got to the point of posting about it here, so I
know that, in some sense, it works.

What did you do? What did not work?
