Summary: API should support &action=edit§ion=new regardless
of whether LiquidThreads is used on the page
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: LiquidThreads
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
For backwards-compatibility, the API should be able to use
&action=edit§ion=new regardless of whether the talk page uses
LiquidThreads. If it uses LiquidThreads, it should just add a thread. If not,
it should add a section (as it has historically).
The idea here is that script writers should not have their scripts broken by
the introduction of LiquidThreads to a wiki.
In addition, some wikis use LiquidThreads on a per-page basis arbitrarily
(using {{UseLiquidThreads:1}}. There must be a way to post a new section to the
page regardless of whether the page currently uses LiquidThreads. Again,
requiring script writers to write new and more complex code doesn't seem like
the nicest or most reasonable solution here. Something built in to the
extension seems best.
