Description

Per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:The_Wikipedia_Library#Can't_login, and my own brief test with a test account, it looks like new users cannot login to The Wikipedia Library.

Clicking Log in took me to Meta login, then OAuth approval, I clicked Approve, and then I got a Bad Request error. Once I was logged in on Meta, clicking Log in on the home page simply reloads the page.

It looks like we have to cast the self.wp_sub to int as well in the Editor.check_sub method.
