Commit summary for MediaWiki.r96280: Add a new RequestContext::newExtraneousContext() to create a context filled with data not derived from the current session. Also modify setLang to accept a language code. Dantman's comment: "unnecessary" may not fit. But "irrelevant" as in "not relevant to the main request context" does fit. "external" has a bit of ambiguity to it as well. eg: RequestContext::newExternalContext() sounds kind of like it creates context for a request to something external to the entire current wiki. It's almost as bad as newForeignContext would be. newOutlyingContext? newIsolatedContext? This kind of sounds like one of those scenarios where nothing ever seams right. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
