Description Emufarmers 2009-07-11 00:25:43 UTC
As it is, the CAPTCHA doesn't appear until you try saving your edit.  If the CAPTCHA will definitely be displayed for an edit (because $wgCaptchaTriggers['edit'] or $wgCaptchaTriggersOnNamespace[NS_FOO]['edit'] is set), we should show it on the edit page before the user presses "Save page."
