Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: p858snake (p858snake) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Support the use of Assert Edit
Initial Comment: It would be nice if the use of the Assert Edit[1] extension was supported by the framework, Because for the wikis it is depolyed on (All WMF wikis) it would prevent bots from editing unlogged inif they choose to have it assert its edits.

Message: Time? all the asserting does is add something like "&assert=bot" to the end of the address and it returns to the bot interface if it has the right or not, and it should check every edit.
