It is documented in the block for message.text() and message.parse(), with
mw.msg() being a shortcut for message.text(). Could be improved to mention
there directly as well!

Hey Bawolff,

Including mediawiki.jqueryMsg fixed the issue. Thanks a bunch!

I concur this is rather peculiar design. It'd be helpful to have some
indication of this in the method docs of the mw.msg() code.

Cheers

I think you need to load mediawiki.jqueryMsg module otherwise these
interfaces do totally different things.

Personally im not really a fan of this as i dont like the idea that methods
randomly change meaning based on what modules are loaded, but it is what it
is.

[Wikitech-l] PLURAL in mw.msg

[Jeroen De Dauw]

Hey,

I have this message: Removed $1 {{PLURAL:$1|shape|shapes}}

This message is used in JavaScript via mw.msg() to create an edit summary.
Unfortunately this summary is showing up without the PLURAL function being
rendered:
https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/146040/65845180-6cd43b80-e339-11e9-9fb3-12642a835aa0.png

The docs state that PLURAL is supported in JS:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Messages_API#Feature_support_in_JavaScript.
I've also tried mw.message('my-key').parse() and some variants of that,
though these all gave me the same result.

Why is this not working and how can I fix it?

Cheers
