1193 * SpecialMypage, SpecialMytalk and SpecialMycontributions special pages

1197 * users.
1201 * Superclass for any RedirectSpecialPage which redirects the user
1202 * to a particular article (as opposed to user contributions, logs, etc.).
1204 * For security reasons these special pages are restricted to pass on
1205 * the following subset of GET parameters to the target page while
1206 * removing all others:
1208 * - useskin, uselang, printable: to alter the appearance of the resulting page
1210 * - redirect: allows viewing one's user page or talk page even if it is a
1211 * redirect.
1213 * - rdfrom: allows redirecting to one's user page or talk page from an
1214 * external wiki with the "Redirect from..." notice.
1216 * - limit, offset: Useful for linking to history of one's own user page or
1217 * user talk page. For example, this would be a link to "the last edit to your
1218 * user talk page in the year 2010":
1219 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:MyPage&offset=20110000000000&limit=1&action=history
1221 * - feed: would allow linking to the current user's RSS feed for their user
1222 * talk page:
1223 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:MyTalk&action=history&feed=rss
1225 * - preloadtitle: Can be used to provide a default section title for a
1226 * preloaded new comment on one's own talk page.
1228 * - summary : Can be used to provide a default edit summary for a preloaded
1229 * edit to one's own user page or talk page.
1231 * - preview: Allows showing/hiding preview on first edit regardless of user
1232 * preference, useful for preloaded edits where you know preview wouldn't be
1233 * useful.
1235 * - internaledit, externaledit, mode: Allows forcing the use of the
1236 * internal/external editor, e.g. to force the internal editor for
1237 * short/simple preloaded edits.
1239 * - redlink: Affects the message the user sees if their talk page/user talk
1240 * page does not currently exist. Avoids confusion for newbies with no user
1241 * pages over why they got a "permission error" following this link:
1242 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:MyPage&redlink=1
1244 * - debug: determines whether the debug parameter is passed to load.php,
1245 * which disables reformatting and allows scripts to be debugged. Useful
1246 * when debugging scripts that manipulate one's own user page or talk page.
1248 * @par Hook extension:
1249 * Extensions can add to the redirect parameters list by using the hook
1250 * RedirectSpecialArticleRedirectParams
