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

			\| Wikibase Client is an extension that acts as a client to the Wikibase extension. Its development is part of the Wikidata project. Wikibase Client obtains [[interlanguage]] links from a Wikibase repository via a shared changes database table and polling maintenance script, and displays them on the client wiki. Links are sorted by the client's preferred sorting.
