Detailed Description

Interface for objects representing user identity.

This represents the identity of a user in the context of page revisions and log entries.

Note

Starting MediaWiki 1.37, UserIdentity objects should no longer expose an actor ID. The actor ID is considered a storage layer optimization and should not be exposed to and used by application logic. Storage layer code should use ActorNormalization to get an actor ID for a UserIdentity.

Since

1.31
