Bug ID: 45512
Summary: Request support for retrieving raw wikitext with Lua
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Scribunto

Presently, Lua allows one to import preprocessed templates / pages using
frame.preprocess. This is useful for many applications.
However, there does not appear to be any way to get at a page's raw wikitext
without processing.
There are a number of meta tasks and tools that might operate more logically
and faster on the raw wikitext rather than the already parsed and expanded
code. So it would be nice to add a method of allowing Lua to access the
unparsed wikitext of a page.
