Details

[edit]
  • $editor: EditPage instance (object)
  • $text: content of the revised article
  • &$error: error message to return (broken until MW 1.16alpha)
  • $summary: edit summary provided for edit

Notes

[edit]
  • As of MW 1.16alpha (r55681), you have the same two options for filtering edits as with the EditFilter hook:
    • Return false to halt editing. You'll need to handle error messages, etc. yourself.
    • Return true and modify $error (set to a value other than ''). This will cause the page to stay in edit mode and will cause the contents of $error to be displayed above the edit box. Note: $error should be wikitext.
  • In earlier versions, your only option is to return false to halt editing (handling error messages yourself). Setting $error will not force the page to stay in edit mode.
  • $text is the entire article, after incorporating the submitted text (the contents of the edit box) into the rest of the article; any sections of the article that the editor was not revising have been combined with the submitted text.
