--- Comment #2 from Santhosh Thottingal <[email protected]> --- Mark already explained it very well. The message parser(basically jqueryMsg) did not want to have responsibility of a server call and return asynchronously or do a callback execution once the server is responded. The easiest solution at that time was giving the responsibility of figuring out the gender to the user of message parser. For eg, An extension can do the async call to get user object based on user id and in the success callback, render the message using mw.msg. Just like https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/86172 Ideally mw.msg should not be bothered about collecting the data using apis, but only about parsing. Better ideas are welcome. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
