MediaWiki modifications

Revision as of 19:58, 26 August 2005 by Jukeboksi (talk | contribs) (modified the article to reflect the introduction of MediaWiki extensions, so we don't need to hack MediaWiki proper)

See MediaWiki extensions page about the extensions that are needed. Making modifications to the MediaWiki itself is no longer necessary as the extension system has been introduced. This is great news to us since we don't have to worry about keeping a modified MediaWiki current with the mediawiki proper development tree

Highest priority

  1. Finish the needed MediaWiki extensions

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)
