Our internal wiki is supposed to be read only for anonymous, and the users are authenticating with our AD through SAML, so $wgCreateUserPage_OnLogin is set to false.

When I enable the extension on the wiki, existing user pages are created but also pages with the name : User:10.XXX.XXX.XXX (10.XXX.XXX.XXX is the IP address). I think they come from our enterprise search which is using the mediawiki API to get results.

How can I prevent the extension from creating such pages ?

Thank you for reporting that error. It is now fixed.
