* Made ExternalEdit use a context
* Updated DifferenceEngine to use ExternalEdit to send the diff stuff to reduce code duplication
* Introduced ExternalEdit::useExternalEngine() to check whether to use the external edit or diff (except for the action, section and oldid which are still checked in Wiki.php) to remove code duplication; external diff can now also be controlled with externaledit or internaledit URL parameters
* Use $wgContLang to get the name of the "Special" namespace instead of user's language
* Modified the line breaks in the comment on the top of the control file so that the URL is on its own line
* Updated extension to call EditPage::edit() instead of EditPage::submit(), the latter will just call the former
* Updated extension to let core handle itself the ExternalEdit mode instead of doing this themself
* (bug 26020) Setting $wgEmailConfirmToEdit to true no longer removes diffs from recent changes feeds
* Added second parameter to Title::userCan() and Title::quickUserCan() to allow callers to pass the User object to use for checks; this changes Title::userCan()'s second parameter from "do expensive queries" flag to User, but all callers should have been updated in r102183
* Updated callers that might throw a PermissionsError to use getUserPermissionsErrors() instead and pass the error array to the exception
* Refactored duplicate code in missingPermissionError()
* Moved Title::isNamespaceProtected() a bit upper and Title::userCanRead() near Title::userCan() to have related functions in the same location
* Some minor refactoring in permission-related functions in Title
* This replaces OuputPage::loginToUse() functionnality, made it simply throw a PermissionsEror exception and updated all calls in core
* Same for the check in SpecialUpload::execute(), EditPage::userNotLoggedInPage() and EditPage::noCreatePermission()
* Throw the same exception in EditPage::attemptSave() whether the user is logged in or not and let OuputPage::showPermissionsErrorPage() decide which message to display
* Replaced call to deprecated OutputPage::blockedPage() in SpecialUpload
* Displayed messages are the same as now, except the title is always "loginreqtitle"
* 'nocreatetitle' and 'uploadnologin' messages are still used by extensions, so I kept them, but the message 'whitelistedittitle' is not used anymore and has been removed
* Use local context instead of global variables
* Removed obsolete aliases PageHistory and PageHistoryPager; no longer used
* Made Action::getContext() and related methods public for the call in HistoryPager's constructor and also for consistency with other classes
* Left RawPage with back compat code for extensions that use it
* Removed calls to Skin for gen=(css|js). Calling action=raw&gen=(css|js) will now unconditionally return empty content
* Removed Skin::generateUserJs() and Skin::generateUserStylesheet() since they were only used in RawPage
* Rewrote class and split into three classes: a base class, and html cache and a more generic cache to be used later.
* The new classes now use RequestContext.
* Renamed fetchPageText() -> fetchText().
* Split out new saveText() function from saveToFileCache().
* Various other cleanups and fixes.
Also fixed backwards setting of $wgDisableCounters in rebuildFileCache.php.
$wgDeferredUpdateList[] = new HTMLCacheUpdate( $title, "sometable" );
I kept b/c with $wgDeferredUpdateList for now, but seeing as only 3 exts in svn use it (FileSearch, FlaggedRevs and WikiScripts), I'd like to deprecate it pretty soon :)
* Removed obsolete aliases PageHistory and PageHistoryPager; unused
* Maintained backward compatibility with HistoryPage; extensions using it will still work
* Use local context instead of global variables
* Removed calls to OutputPage::setPageTitleActionText() and OutputPage::setSyndicated(), the first one does nothing and the second one is overriden by the setFeedAppendQuery() call just below
* Call Linker methods statically
* Fixed bug where feedEmpty() was not called on empty history since casting a ResultWrapper object to boolean always returns true even when there's no row
* Added WikiPage::getActionOverrides() to be able to execute different actions depending on the namespace (obviously needed for action=revert). This is only used when the value of $wgActions for the corresponding action is true; so extension can still override this.
* Added Action::getDescription() to ease the change of the page header and the <title> element
* WikiPage functions/fields are "magically" part of Article when accessed for b/c. Magic is kind of ugly but there are too many callers to make breaking changes atm. Some functions are just wrappers for WikiPage ones (were magic won't work).
* Added newFromID() to each WikiPage subclass (works around pre-existing inheritance problem).
* Added Page class for convenient type hinting and changed hints from Article -> Page. This lets things use WikiPage objects without getting type errors.
* Updated FlaggedPage to extend WikiPage. Worked around getOldIdFromRequest().
* Added setTimestamp() to WikiPage and moved some timestamp setting code from ParserCache to Article.
* Removed ampersands from $dbw arguments.
* @TODO: dependency inject user objects for WikiPage
The idea is to migrate things to use WikiPage, as the run-of-the-mill "new Article()" call doesn't care about $oldid and $wgRequest. After that, Article, ImagePage, and CategoryPage can be rewritten as an Action class or something sane (a Viewer class of sorts).
** Tweaked addAutopromoteOnceGroups() calls for performance
** Some doc tweaks and fixes
* Added NS_SPECIAL short-circuit on $wgTitle for file cache and removed unnecessary "is null" check
* Pushed "$action != 'raw'" check into HTMLFileCache
* Removed useless return value from performRequest()
* Added type hint to performAction()
* Removed clunky autopromoteOnceHook function and added $wgAutopromoteOnce. It currently supports edit or view based triggering. This makes configuration much simpler.
* Added short-circuit to addAutopromoteOnceGroups() by checking if $criteria is empty
* Spacing tweaks and typo fixes.
When calling remote functions, MW was outputting the result followed by page HTML. This was caused by calling the cleanup function, which also output the HTML, even after an AJAX request. Fixed by moving the call after AJAX is all safely handled.
