No, everything will be evaluated. Note that the problem with rule 48 was that added_links triggers a complete parse of the pre-edit page text.

No amount of clever shortcut evaluation would have made it fast. -- Tim Starling _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
