--- Comment #20 from Michael Daly <[email protected]> 2009-06-29 19:28:20 UTC --- Another use case - to see whether the wiki recognizes the 'require_once("...extensionName.php");' placed in LocalSettings.php worked at all. If you have been answering help requests on msusers.com for a long time, you'd recognize how often this is a useful thing. It's the fastest way to get the answer to the question "Are you sure the extension is installed?" As such, this use case is only required for admins. BTW - as far as differences with $wgSpecialVersionShowHooks: If other features are not handled by rights, that should not influence whether new features should be handled by rights. A global on/off and limited restrictions on actions are not the same thing. Whether $wgSpecialVersionShowHooks should have been restricted to sysops or not is another question. In general, if previous implementations of features have been handled incorrectly, that should be fixed, not used an as example of how to do things in the future. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
