page is saved. A wiki page is deleted. Often there are two events
associated with a single action: one before the code is run to make the
event happen, and one after. Each event has a name, preferably in

A clump of code and data that should be run when an event happens. This can
The extra data is useful if we want to use the same function or object for
different purposes. For example:
- $wgHooks['ArticleSaveComplete'][] = array( 'ircNotify', 'TimStarling' );
- $wgHooks['ArticleSaveComplete'][] = array( 'ircNotify', 'brion' );
+ $wgHooks['PageContentSaveComplete'][] = array( 'ircNotify', 'TimStarling' );
+ $wgHooks['PageContentSaveComplete'][] = array( 'ircNotify', 'brion' );
This code would result in ircNotify being run twice when an article is saved:
once for 'TimStarling', and once for 'brion'.
'BaseTemplateAfterPortlet': After output of portlets, allow injecting
custom HTML after the section. Any uses of the hook need to handle escaping.
