Description Daniel Kinzler 2012-12-12 17:29:30 UTC
Special pages that are designed to modify the database should check edit permissions and read only mode before showing a form. If editing is not possible for some reason, an appropriate message should be shown instead of the input form.
Comment 1 Daniel Kinzler 2013-10-29 12:55:21 UTC
To clarify: at the moment, permissions are checked after the user submits the form. That is frustrating and confusing.
