I have a boiler tag I want to placing atop "admin container categories" which I
wanted to include a final bullet statement:
* This category was created by {{#if:{{{newcat|}}}|~~~
on
~.|{{subst:PAGECREATOR}}.}}
Also the {{db}} template series which says at the bottom:
Please consider placing the template:
{{subst:db-reason-notice|Template:Db|header=1|no reason given}}
on the talk page of the author.
which requires the additional step of determining who authored the page would
more efficiently read better as:
Please consider placing the template:
{{subst:db-reason-notice|Template:Db|header=1|no reason given}}
on the talk page of {{{PAGECREATOR}}}.
In my opinion. Other usefulness exists.

I'm surprised this bug isn't a duplicate. I searched and found a number of bugs
requesting similar features (such as a magic word for the latest editor or a
magic word for the currently logged in user), but I wasn't able to find any
pre-existing bugs about a magic word for the page creator.

Useful how? Can you describe how you might use this magic word?

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44494 --- Comment #3 from Bawolff (Brian Wolff) --- Yeah. The other big is more aboit people wanting to do stats on the page creator. Just to create a new magic word probably doesnt need any db change. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. You are the assignee for the bug.
