Hi, going through the list of mediawiki extensions, I found some that might be useful for our new wiki, and that I would like to try out:
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VideoFlash allows us to embed videos from our youtube channel, and helps to move tube.o.o into the wiki
We're already moving tube into youtube/blip. No need to put it into the wiki. But as general possibility it sounds cool.
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi gives us syntax highlighting for included example code snippets
Nice!
- http://blog.bemoko.com/2008/06/28/bugzilla-reports-for-mediawiki/ Can include some Bugzilla data into wiki pages
Looks nice but for what would we actually use it? I just skimmed over the usual suspect pages for bugzilla links and it seems to me that links are just fine. The only real benefit i see would be to integrate this into Template:Bug so one can use {{Bug|12345}} and gets the output but for most use cases this seems to be a bit much output. Did you have any specific use case in mind?
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QPoll http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SecurePoll Do we want to be able to do polls in the wiki?
No. We use connect/users for polls.
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Add_HTML_Meta_and_Title Can improve our pages for search engines
Sounds good.
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryWatch You can add a complete category to your watchlist, that might be useful when we have people taking responsibility for a category, for example 'Applications'
Also cool.
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ShareThis Can notify social bookmarking sites about wiki pages
I don't know. Sounds unnecessary to me. I never ever wanted to report a wiki page and most of the social bookmarking pages have nice browser extension.
- FATE connect (to be written) Could include feature title, state and product by writing for example <fate>23567</fate> in the wiki markup or dynamically include search results for features.
Same as with the bugzilla extension i think. Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE. Everybody has a plan, until they get hit. - Mike Tyson -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org
