Summary: more agressive norm()
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: AbuseFilter
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]

norm() currently behaves as rmwhitespace(rmspecials(rmdoubles(ccnorm(arg1))))
this has the drawback that whitespace is removed last. With fairly common
vandalism edits, we have stuff like
"G G G G GAY!". If doubles are removed before repetition is removed, the
list of G's are unrecognised. I propose to either change
$s = $this->ccnorm( $s );
$s = $this->rmdoubles( $s );
$s = $this->rmspecials( $s );
$s = $this->rmwhitespace( $s );
to
$s = $this->ccnorm( $s );
$s = $this->rmspecials( $s );
$s = $this->rmwhitespace( $s );
$s = $this->rmdoubles( $s );
or to make a new function agrNorm() (for agressive norm) that mimics the
behaviour of norm, but with the second operation order, not to break backwards
compatibility.
