-==============
-Authentication
-==============
-
-GNU MediaGoblin uses OAuth1 to authenticate requests to the API. There are many
-libraries out there for OAuth1, you're likely not going to have to do much. There
-is a library for the GNU MediaGoblin called `PyPump <https://github.com/xray7224/PyPump>`_.
-We are not using OAuth2 as we want to stay completely compatable with GNU MediaGoblin.
-
-
-We use :doc:`client_register` to get the client ID and secret.
-
-Endpoints
----------
-
-These are the endpoints you need to use for the oauth requests:
-
-`/oauth/request_token` is for getting the request token.
-
-`/oauth/authorize` is to send the user to to authorize your application.
-
-`/oauth/access_token` is for getting the access token to use in requests.
