what's the proper hook to append content within the main body?

i'm trying to add content to the body of my wiki documents. the requirements
are the following:

1. do not display content in edit window
2. cache content as normal

so far the closest hook to this seems like ParserAfterTidy, but the content
seems to disappear on edits and remains gone until the cache is flushed.

what technique should I use?

thanks in advance

That depends on where your data should appear. There is a hook called
SkinAfterContent which allows you to add data below the article text and
metadata. See docs/hooks.txt for documentation on the usage of that
hook.

For disabling it on the edit page you would probably use a case
differentiation based on action != edit.

Anyway, you should learn German. It's no more difficult than regex. (Richard Quinn)

I use ArticleViewHeader for adding a header.
