Details
Limit to the number of accounts which may be created within a 24-hour period from a single IP address (whether by unregistered or registered user), 0 to disable.
Account creations from users with the noratelimit right aren't counted.
It is currently set to 6 on Wikimedia Foundation wikis.[1]
$wgMainCacheType must be set to a value other than CACHE_NONE for this setting to work.
When using a captcha, failed captcha attempts increment the number of account creation for the IP address. Have this in mind if you have a captcha implemented and you want to set the account creation limit too low. See <translate> task <tvar name=1>T233704</tvar></translate>
