Help users to find passwords

I like the password policy of stanford university:
https://uit.stanford.edu/service/accounts/passwords/quickguide

The good thing is that they show everybody how to create a secure password. Mostly you must come up with new passwords (or change them) when you don't have time to figure out good new password or you don't even know what is secure.

Either put a question mark to the password field with more information or link to a reference in the documentation.

Lets create a page in our documentation and link it in the personal-page as a first step 😉

We should not point to sources we have no administrative control over 😁

Is it possible to set a minimum security level, so e.g. your password must have the complexity equivalent to a 10 characters password with mixed characters (upper+lower+special+numeric)?

Small caps passwords are much easier to handle on mobile devices (though I hope on the long term we can implement tokens and QR-codes but that's a different issue)
