wiki auth error

[Arran Cudbard-Bell]

I actually rewrote the omniauth integration as a Sinatra plugin, which returns a 401 error (unauthorized) with more friendly error messages, i've just been too tied up with other things to install it. It also fixes the button height issue which is a CSS error that doesn't appear under chrome, but does under Firefox.

If either UID, or Name are blank then authentication is not allowed this is to prevent spam. It's not something omniauth does by default, it's something I added explicitly.
