Hello,

I would like to add a new page to the Function Reference on the Codex about WordPress Global Variables. There are a few lists around the web, but no full list in the Codex documentation.

I explain some of my reasoning in a rough draft [1]. Mainly I want to have a single location to point to from the Codex Function Reference pages for each global variable.

The Source Code Documentation Parser (The Parser) will automatically add links to the appropriate sections of this page to most global declarations.

Hopefully, this will allow programmers to add notes in the source code about a particular global variable usage while allowing the Codex to automatically refer to more detailed information about that variable.

The Parser adds globals that are not defined by the Inline Documentation (probably because the programmer didn't think them important), but that are included in the function to the Codex Function Reference Page. So, there is a need for a good definition in the Codex.


    Is anyone else working on this?

    Can you see any room for improvement?


    The new page would reside at:
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/Global_Variables.
