You could also amend your editor to do those deletions for
you, but I think there is a fundamental misunderstanding
here: MediaWiki is a collaborative project.  If you think in
categories like "author" and "my" or "your" code, you will
be disappointed.

MediaWiki uses a very spacey coding style, other PHP
projects do not.  Even though the syntax is /very/ similar,
most C, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, etc. projects use different
conventions.  So: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.  Every-
thing else does not work in practice.
