Revision as of 14:02, 10 May 2012 by Jukeboksi (talk | contribs) (Adding headings for the clearly most useful extensions + tweaking tweaking)

Extensions currently installed on this development wiki. Also applicable to the implementation wiki.

Listing extensions that could be useful for the implementation wiki

A

ArticleFeedback ( stars of maximum stars ) for reviews

ArticleFeedbackv5 could be used to collect feedback to a company

  • http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AutoLanguage - Displays a page in the language specified in a user preference. Looks very old and maybe not up-to-date but the source should be interesting reading for anyone looking to implement many languages in one wiki.

B

BADI Pages Created Links ( automatically color outgoing links with colors for "exists" and "doesn't exist

Back Links Functions ( constructing the voting machinery probably can use at least functions from this

C

Common Locale Data Repository

Useable to fetch proper localized string for countries, areas, languages and currencies

Call - ablility to pass variables to pages

CategoryCloud and CategoryTagCloud ( 2 competing w:tag cloud implementations )


CategoryIndex ( Using keys ( external to articles ) to make category associations )

Perhaps this could be utilized to enter datas for many pages in single pages and also propagated to all languages

CategoryIntersection - where are the other set operations ?

CategoryOnUpload

They on Extension:CategoryOnUpload:

Dropdown menu when uploading images to add the image to a category

Us on Extension:CategoryOnUpload:

Makes it easier and faster to categorize a file you are uploading

N

NewArticleTemplates

They on NewArticleTemplates:

...

Us on NewArticleTemplates:

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 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.
