[by Jonathan Ballet] Can't login using OAuth on "Wikidata - The Game"

[moved from https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/MAGNUS-421 ]

Hi,

I tried to "play" Wikidata Game from http://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-game/

I clicked on the "Log in here" link, which redirects me to https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:OAuth/authorize with two special OAuth tokens. I'm already logged in on this website and it proposes me to allow "Widar" to do some stuff on www.wikidata.org, which I allow by clicking the "Allow" button.

I'm then redirected to http://tools.wmflabs.org/widar/index.php? with two OAuth tokens as well, where I get the following message:

You have not authorized Widar to perform edits on Wikidata on your behalf. Authorize WiDaR now.

If I click on "Authorize WiDaR now", the whole process described above repeats itself, and ends up with the same "not authorized Widar bla bla" message.

In the end, I can't "play" Wikidata Game

Oh, and there several other people who observed the same behavior (as reported, in French, at http://linuxfr.org/users/nicolas_raoul/journaux/wikidata-the-game)

Does WiDaR show up when you go here: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:OAuthManageMyGrants ?

[Jonathan Ballet]

It shows up, yes, with the following informations:

Application name: Widar [1.3]
Publisher: Magnus Manske
Application description: Wikidata remote editor
Allowed on project: www.wikidata.org
Applicable grants allowed:
    Basic rights
    High-volume editing 
    Edit existing pages 
    Create, edit, and move pages    
    Rollback changes to pages   
    Delete pages, revisions, and log entries

And when you go back to the game, does it still ask you to authorize?

(I can't press the "after you authorized"-butt, to update the page using an iPad mini, nothing happens. And if I manually update the page, it still ask me to Login with WiDaR. So, the game is "un-playable" for me on iOS.)

[Jonathan Ballet]

[sorry for the late reply, I somehow didn't get notified you answered me] Yes, it still asked me to authorize.

But actually, I just tried again (I wanted to give you the exact message), and it seems I'm now logged in. I don't know if you changed something in the meanwhile...

have the same problem on my smartphone (but ok on the tablet), using the same navigator : Chrome... :(
