Description MZMcBride 2013-07-17 02:59:16 UTC 
ResourceLoader's load.php is nice, but it minifies (and to an extent, obfuscates) JavaScript and CSS. This harms an open Web.

load.php comes with a debug parameter, but this isn't obvious. An HTML comment explaining load.php or pointing to more information about load.php would be good to have in the page source.
Comment 1 Krinkle 2013-08-29 16:06:18 UTC 
Removing "easy" keyword for now until we know whether and if, what, this comment should say and point to.
Comment 2 Krinkle 2014-08-29 02:08:11 UTC 
Content or scripts can also contain urls to index.php and api.php, where are their parameters documented?

At least api.php has a help page when requested without any parameters. Perhaps we should point to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ResourceLoader/Features or https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ResourceLoader/Features#Debug_mode from load.php, as it currently only says "no modules were requested. Max made me put this here"
