== About REVISIONUSER ==<br />
<br />
<nowiki>{{REVISIONUSER}}</nowiki> is a "[[Help:Magic words#Variables|magic word]]" that returns the last person to change an article. On November 14, 2013, this feature was expanded to include <nowiki>{{REVISIONUSER:(article-name)}}</nowiki>, which makes it possible to query who edited any of a number of other articles. This template '''does not''' need to be used in place of the magic word normally, but is provided so that a [[BTW:Lua]] module can use ''frame:expandTemplate'' to access this function. (There may well be some other better way to do this).<br />
<br />
Example: <nowiki>{{REVISIONUSER|Astronomy}}</nowiki> -> {{REVISIONUSER|Astronomy}}. (i.e. [[User:{{REVISIONUSER|Astronomy}}]])<br />
<br />
But you can get this straight from the parser function by typing <nowiki>{{REVISIONUSER:Astronomy}}</nowiki>.<br />
<br />
==Limitations==<br />
<br />
* '''Note: Use of [[:mw:Help:Magic_words#REVISIONUSER:|REVISIONUSER]] with a parameter appears to be counted as an [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgExpensiveParserFunctionLimit expensive parser function] against the page limit.''' This can be confirmed using [[Module:Preview expense]].<br />
* There is a '''Bug''' in the <code><nowiki>{{REVISIONUSER}}</nowiki></code> magic word ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T14974 tracked in Phabricator as Task T166946]) which prevents it from working properly if the user name starts with certain wiki-markup characters such as a * and possible other characters. The work-around is to wrap the call to the magic word with the '''nowiki''' function of [[Module:String2]]:<br />
