Overview

AddArticle is an extension to MediaWiki that creates a new special page, Special:AddArticle, that adds a wiki article via a web form. Further an additional special page Special:ReplaceArticle is made available which overwrites existing articles. It uses the same parameters as Special:AddArticle, but does not provide a user interface. If the wiki does not contain an article with this name it is added, otherwise the add operation is not performed.
