Include a 2nd stage of substitutions after the regular ones and after the check whether to save or not (because page content has changed due to substitutions) was already performed. This stage will not contain data from the source but metadata such as:

  • actual timestamp (generated by bot)
  • 'date' or 'Last-Modified' (from urllib)
  • more (e.g. source data size, ...)

essentially it should contain info that might change all the time but should not trigger a page update. The data should get inserted as very last step just before saving.


Version: unspecified
Severity: major

May be enhance concept in order to properly handle other things also:

  • error output
  • summary/edit-comment substitution

( both could/will profit of the new subst method that is needed by metadata subst - see comments in code point "5.)" )

All this (and more) done in r11022 upstream.

The summary subster thing has to be further discussed e.g. on http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer_Diskussion:HaeB#SubsterBot.2C_feeds_und_feature_request.
