[Extension:MassEditRegex] Remove the usage of global variable $wgUser, $wgLang, $wgOut
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Problem: Now we are replacing the global variable by getting the context. The Classes which extends SpecialPage can directly access the context by $this.

Solution:
Replace

  1. $wgUser with $this->getUser()
  2. $wgLang with $this->getLanguage()
  3. $wgOut with $this->getOutput()

in MassEditRegex.special.php. If there are multiple usage then use variable to store context instead of calling $this again and again.
