    Write your own MediaWiki extension describes the extension mechanism of MediaWiki.

    There is one extension that was coded specifically for Consumerium needs ready. It's at m:User:Juxo/Extensions/ListSubPages and does what the name implies, very plain, no fancy options (yet)

    See m:Category:Mediawiki Extensions for extensions coded by various people


    Needed extensions

    • Count_incoming_links
    • Sum
    • Divide
    • Subtract
    • Average
    • ...

    Moved from MediaWiki modifications

    Highest priority

    1. Introduction of {{numberofincominglinks:SomeNameSpace:SomePage}} This can be done with just one SQL query

    Lower priority

    1. GetWiki-like "leech" feature - mirror whole GFDL corpus dynamically
    2. XML-import for feeds from other GFDL sources
    3. Automatic coding for different user types: red==unintroduced, green==Verified User and blue==Normal User
    4. automatic stub generation

    Unfeasible

    1. Prohibit linking to Vote-pages from anywhere else then MyVotes or OurVotes pages (According to User:Brion this is difficult and prone to break stuff)
