Module:ATA

-- The purpose of this module ("Articles To Avoid") is to allow people -- who want to avoid editing specific articles to add the following in their signature:

-- Script error

-- The Lua script will go to the first anon parameter and import its content. -- This is a list of articles you don't want to edit -- (say, because you're topic banned, or you're worried Putin is out to get you), -- does a frame.preprocess on it to ensure (???) any transclusions are done, -- gets the current page you are editing, and sees if currentpage is in the list. -- If so, it returns the link to Encyclopedia Dramatica -- (eventually, a proposal should be made to add an error message added to the blacklist -- that explains the program that is doing it and what you need to do to your signature to undo it). -- Note that the signature preferences are not directly accessible to very many people, -- maintaining a certain sort of privacy -- (if you elect to make a call to an existing blacklist posted by someone else, for example, or -- if you opt out of the blacklist hoping you'll get away with it) -- but of course, right now anyone can see what articles you've edited. -- starting below from a straight copy of my Module:TrainingPages: local p = {} function anonymize(name) return mw.ustring.gsub(name,"^"..mw.site.siteName,"Project") or name end function p.block(frame) local debuglog="" local parent=frame.getParent(frame) local currentpage,indexmodule,defaultpage,noerr args in the #invoke itself trump args in the parent frame currentpage = frame.args.page -- this is only useful for testing! debugout = frame.args.debug indexmodule = frame.args[1] or frame.args.index noerr=frame.args.noerr anonymizereturn = frame.args.anonymize whitelist = frame.args.allow args in the parent frame come next if parent then currentpage=currentpage or parent.args.page indexmodule=indexmodule or parent.args[1] or parent.args.index -- index here is NOT generally a module, unlike TrainingPages, -- because it needs to be accessible to newbies and possibly support transclusions noerr=noerr or parent.args.noerr debugout = debugout or parent.args.debug anonymizereturn = anonymizereturn or parent.args.anonymize whitelist = whitelist or parent.args.allow end default values if parameters aren't provided whitelist = whitelist or "" if not(indexmodule) then if noerr then return "" else return "Module:ATA error:no index parameter specified" end end if not(currentpage) then local pp=mw.title.getCurrentTitle if not pp then if noerr then return "" else return "Module:ATA error:failed to access getCurrentTitle" -- this shouldn't happen anyway, I don't think.... end end currentpage=pp.fullText end -- process parameters whiteitem = {} for i in string.gmatch(whitelist, "%[%[(.-)%]%]") do       debuglog = debuglog ..
