Hello all,

...

I was wondering if there's a clean way within the Wiki codebase to generate a history entry for an article without actually modifying the content. Essentially, from within an extension, I'd like to treat the history as a logfile for specific events related to the article that don't actually modify the article.

See Revision::newNullRevision()

Perfect, thank you!

or maybe you can do something like

             $logEntry = new ManualLogEntry( 'something', 'somethingmaybeese' );
             $logEntry->setPerformer( $user );
             $logEntry->setTarget( $this->mTitle );
             $logEntry->setComment( $reason );
             $logid = $logEntry->insert();
             $logEntry->publish( $logid );

(from WikiPage.php line 2990)

Thanks, I'll have a look at that also.

Cheers, Rob.
