Define the database name for thebot_passwords table for use with the newbot authentication system.To use a database with a table prefix, set this variable to "{$database}-{$prefix}".If set to "false", the regular database will be used.Note that$wgEnableBotPasswords must be set to "true" (which is the default) for this to work.
The goal of this variable is to support cross-wiki sharing of bot passwords: thebot_passwords table references users by theircentral IDs so only one instance of the table should exist in the whole wikifarm.
This configuration parameter was introduced inGerrit change 259066 (T121113).
