further even if it violates some general philosophy of the Mediawiki software. 
I am fine with having this cache purge feature reverted, but you have to 
propose another solution. At this point, having stable page banners and ToC is 
very important for us, while anything related to the cache is of minor 
relevance to the project.
  
  
  That JS hack, if I'm reading it correctly, effectively sends us a purge on 
every pageview?  That's horrendous and abusive of our infrastructure, and the 
problem could grow if people start copying it to other wikis to work around 
other perceived problems.
