This document contains details about event handlers (also known as Hooks) provided by Semantic MediaWiki to enable users to extent and integrate custom specific solutions.

Implementing a hook should be made in consideration of the expected performance impact for the front-end (additional DB read/write transactions etc.) and/or the back-end (prolonged job backlog etc.) process.
