'''GetWiki[http://getwiki.net/ .net]''' is the improved software that is a fork of [[MediaWiki]], in use at [[Wikinfo]]. ''It should probably be listed in the comparisons of [[wiki code]].'' == Technical Features == *Full support for [[wikitext standard]] * Auto-import of Wikipedia articles via [[XML]] using [[PHP programming language|PHP]]'s [[Expat]] Library * Improved use of [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] styles (colours, positioning) * Cleaner output to the browser, [[PHP programming language|PHP]] code underneath * Well-formed [[XHTML]], replacing deprecated [[HTML]] 4.0 versions * More integrated and effective use of [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS2]], beyond font colours * More intuitive User Preferences page * Clearer labeling and checkbox placements * Fixed user login retention and other fixes * Better use of [[license|licensing]] notices on pages * Image [[Wikinfo:Image use policy|thumbnail]] display == Further Improvements == * Better organization of [[function]]s and classes, filenames and [[variable]]s * More comprehensive [[sysop|administrator]] tools http://internet-encyclopedia.org/?title=Wikinfo:GetWiki == Serious Development Culture drawbacks == Anyone considering using '''GetWiki''' should review [http://recyclopedia.info/wiki/wiki.phtml?title=GetWiki:_critical_point_of_view the critical point of view of it taken at Recyclopedia]. It would appear that the primary developer, [[M.R.M._Parrott]], is a simple [[control freak]] with no capacity whatsoever to engage in a [[standards process]] or work within a [[deliberative democracy]]. He seems also to have a strongly [[commercial bias]] though he tellingly accuses others of having same. He seems further to have objected strongly to deletion of his own biography from [[Wikipedia]], but has no conscience about deleting necessary standards-related articles from [[Wikinfo]] to make it harder for [[mediawiki]] developers to find, and etc.. GetWiki is a [[fork]] of [[MediaWiki]] (like [[PhpWiki]] is a [[fork]] of [[UseModWiki]]) A better explaining [http://http://internet-encyclopedia.org/wiki.php?title=Fork_(software) external "fork" link] ---- <small> Technical features copied from http://wikinfo.org/?title=Wikinfo:GetWiki under the clauses of [[GFDL]] </small> [[Category:Software]]
