Extensions provide numerous ways to extend the core functionality of [[MediaWiki]] in ways that are more likely not to break on MediaWiki upgrades. Some types of extensions store their code inside the wiki which should be utterly avoided as then the MediaWiki team cannot assure to not break on upgrades. No guarantees are given but given a clean implementation of task X we've no need to reinvent the wheel.
It would seem that '''adding extensions is not the problematic part but removing them''' in a clean manner after they've been added at some point previously.
'''Key extensions'''
*[[#MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle]] takes care of our multilinguality.
*[[#Wikibase]] and [[#Wikibase Client]] are being developed as a part of the [[Wikidata]] project will be our structured data storage, retrieval and modification extension duo. It remains to be seen how [[#LinkedWiki]] extensions with similar functionality by the [[DBpedia]] people will develop from now on. Going to keep a close eyeon it
''' See also: '''
* [[Templates]] - they enable [[w:Transclusion|transcluding]] content. build whole page with transcluding many templates into it
* [[Categories]] - two-way hyperlinks. placing a link to a category includes an article in the [[w:set]] of articles in the category X
* [[MediaWiki/Widgets]]

Consumium will use both [[DBpedia]] and [[Wikidata]] to source information onto it's own [[mw:Extensions:Wikibase|Extensions:Wikibase]] installation.

[[#LanguageSelector]] will enable people to have the MediaWiki interface localized based on accept langs the browser sends and [[#LandingCheck]] enables to make and serve pages based on what locale ( lang + country ) is given. [[#Common Locale Data Repository]] mw:Extension:CLDR - The CLDR extension contains local language names for different languages, countries, and currencies extracted from [[w:Common Locale Data Repository]] data is obviously useful for the i18n effort.  
 
=== MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle ===
All languages will be served from single wiki utilizing [[mw:MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle]]. It contains the following extensions
#)[[Universal Language Selector]] - For selecting UI and content language
#)[[#Translate|Translate extension]] - For multilang support in single wiki
#)[[#LocalisationUpdate|Localisation Update extension]]
#)[[#CleanChanges|Clean Changes extension]] for a Recent Changes view without multilinguality induced clutter
#)[[#Babel|Babel extension]] - List languages and find other speakers of your languages onwiki

Will be implemented with [[#CentralAuth]] so that http://consumium.org/wiki/ and http://consuploads.consumium.org will share a single-login database over the two wikis.


== Data storage and use ==
== Data storage and use ==
[[#KeyValue]] is an extension that allows you to store one or more key/values as Category/Key/Value triplets on a mediawiki page by using the keyvalue function. The data is stored in textform and is not typed. This extension will likely form the back bone of '''setting data only once''' and then using it to '''create articles for all desired locales'''
 
=== Latest ===
Data will be stored in a [[w:Triplestore]] as [[w:RDF]] subject/predicate/object triplets which will be synced with from both [[Wikidata]] and [[DBpedia]]. Own Wikidata instance will be at wikidata.consumium.org and queried with [[w:SPARQL]] and used to fill in the facts for each and all languages.

| <tt>'''[[mw:Extension:Semantic Expressiveness]]'''</tt>
| Semantic Expressiveness is an enhancement for Semantic MediaWiki. Its main feature is to introduce a new syntax for inline short queries. The purpose of this simplest form of inline query is to provide a powerful tool for fighting redundancies within the wiki. Without Semantic Expressiveness it is customary to declare properties in one place but using the same information again all over the same article or on other pages as simple text representation. With Semantic Expressiveness it is possible to use simple references in form of a new syntax to place the same information in various places without writing redundant information. This way if the property changes, the information will update itself all over the wiki wherever the new syntax is in place.

Obviously does what it says. Enables per-namespace pre-loadable ( into the edit box ) texts for new articles i.e. we can have a skeleton for creating a new [[product]], [[brand]], [[company]], [[area]], [[country]] and [[NGO]] etc. no need to [[avoid copy-paste|copy-paste]]. Whether the template given for an article can be given if not all things are split into separate namespaces is possible is not know.
