Description Martin 2009-05-10 08:34:50 UTC So now we have the magic words REVISIONUSER as well as REVISIONTIMESTAMP, etc. and these are really useful. I would like to request a similar magic words for the user who created a page and the time that it was created. They might be called CREATEUSER and CREATETIMESTAMP.
