Web browser: --- Bug ID: 60758 Summary: mw.message.newRawMessage allowing unintended behaviors Product: MediaWiki extensions Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: Scribunto Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: jackmcbarn+w...@gmail.com CC: bjor...@wikimedia.org, tstarl...@wikimedia.org, vasi...@gmail.com Classification: Unclassified Mobile Platform: --- Using mw.message.newRawMessage allows performing several actions that are otherwise disabled because they break things, such as checking if a page exists without incrementing the expensive function count or adding a pagelink (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Lua#Ifexist_alternative for more), and for getting Wikidata properties of pages other than the current one, which also won't be updated properly (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Lua#.22Hacking.22_into_Wikidata_to_get_properties_of_miscellaneous_articles for more). Is there some way that newRawMessage could be tweaked to either not allow this type of thing at all, or to make it happen properly? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
