Description

i want to define a rule in the filter that's being triggered, if somebody moves a page that contains "foo", but i cannot.

for example

moved_to_namespace == 2 && new_wikitext contains "foo"

will never be triggered.

"When action='move', only the summary, action, timestamp and user_* variables are available."

so, i propose to make the content of a page (that's being moved) available in the edit filter.

We may also consider other variables, like new_size, all_links, etc.
Similar to T173663: Add more standard variables to delete action.
