            Bug ID: 51324
           Summary: Provide a (reliable) way to test if a string is in a
                    array of strings (e.g. if a user recently edited a
                    page)

Example

It is unreliable to test if a user edited a page recently with the code
----------------------------------------
user_name in article_recent_contributors
----------------------------------------
because this will test if the sring in the left is part of the other string
(which seems to be a "\n" separated list of usernames, per bug 50107 comment
3).

E.g.: if [[user:example]] is the only one who edited a page, the code above
would detect both [[user:example]] and [[user:ample]] as editors of that page.
See the screenshot
