Automatically add new accounts to a user group in MediaWiki

I want to set a default user group for new accounts created on a private MediaWiki installation.

So when I create an account it will automatically be added to the user group "The-User-Group-I-Specify".

You can do this by using the LocalUserCreated hook in your LocalSettings.php file:

$wgHooks['LocalUserCreated'][] = function ( User $user, $autocreated ) {
    $user->addGroup( 'The-User-Group-I-Specify' );
};
