1234 * SpecialMypage, SpecialMytalk and SpecialMycontributions special pages

1238 * users.
1242 * Superclass for any RedirectSpecialPage which redirects the user
1243 * to a particular article (as opposed to user contributions, logs, etc.).
1245 * For security reasons these special pages are restricted to pass on
1246 * the following subset of GET parameters to the target page while
1247 * removing all others:
1249 * - useskin, uselang, printable: to alter the appearance of the resulting page
1251 * - redirect: allows viewing one's user page or talk page even if it is a
1252 * redirect.
1254 * - rdfrom: allows redirecting to one's user page or talk page from an
1255 * external wiki with the "Redirect from..." notice.
1257 * - limit, offset: Useful for linking to history of one's own user page or
1258 * user talk page. For example, this would be a link to "the last edit to your
1259 * user talk page in the year 2010":
1260 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MyPage?offset=20110000000000&limit=1&action=history
1262 * - feed: would allow linking to the current user's RSS feed for their user
1263 * talk page:
1264 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:MyTalk&action=history&feed=rss
1266 * - preloadtitle: Can be used to provide a default section title for a
1267 * preloaded new comment on one's own talk page.
1269 * - summary : Can be used to provide a default edit summary for a preloaded
1270 * edit to one's own user page or talk page.
1272 * - preview: Allows showing/hiding preview on first edit regardless of user
1273 * preference, useful for preloaded edits where you know preview wouldn't be
1274 * useful.
1276 * - internaledit, externaledit, mode: Allows forcing the use of the
1277 * internal/external editor, e.g. to force the internal editor for
1278 * short/simple preloaded edits.
1280 * - redlink: Affects the message the user sees if their talk page/user talk
1281 * page does not currently exist. Avoids confusion for newbies with no user
1282 * pages over why they got a "permission error" following this link:
1283 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:MyPage&redlink=1
1285 * - debug: determines whether the debug parameter is passed to load.php,
1286 * which disables reformatting and allows scripts to be debugged. Useful
1287 * when debugging scripts that manipulate one's own user page or talk page.
1289 * @par Hook extension:
