Peter Blaise responds:
GREAT! And so simple - doh! I can also include tables, images,
background colors, making a banner, or whatever now. PERFECT! The
Extension page has been updated with examples to share the wealth.
Thanks again, Thomas
Hi,
I've searched rather far and wide for an example configuration of a
single topic wiki with a number of languages, but haven't found
anything other than a few disparate suggestions of how to go about
implementing it using the existing version of mediawiki. The general
requirements are:
- Like wikipedia, language in indicated in the domain name (e.g.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/, http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/, etc).
- The user database is shared among all language wikis, but articles
are not. Images/media are shared.
- The code is not duplicated in multiple folders. Symbolic linking is okay.
I have a partially-working setup I've hacked together myself that uses
symbolic links, some mod_rewrite magic, multiple LocalSettings.php
files, and a separate database for each language with the user tables
(user, user_groups, user_newtalk, watchlist) federated to a single
database. However, I'm interested in seeing how other people have done
it. Would anyone care to share their configuration, or point to a
online reference I may have missed?
Thanks and Happy New Year,
Garth
Suppose I want to parse the text from the edit form and make it like
html output and insert into a table. i.e. what I want to insert into the
table is NOT wiki text. I can insert the wiki text with a function with
"ArticleSaveCOmplete" hook. But in my function first I want to process
the $text into something like the rendered output and then insert into a
table.
Can anyone plz tell me which function I can call for this?

Welcome to mediawiki-l. This mailing list exists for discussion and questions
about the MediaWiki software[0]. Important MediaWiki-related announcements
(such as new versions) are also posted to this list.
Other resources.
If you only wish to receive announcements, you should subscribe to
mediawiki-announce[1] instead.
MediaWiki development discussion, and all Wikimedia technical questions, should
be directed to the wikitech-l[2] mailing list.
Several other MediaWiki-related lists exist:
- mediawiki-api[5] for API discussions,
- mediawiki-enterprise[6] for discussion of MediaWiki in the enterprise,
- mediawiki-cvs[7] for notification of commits to the Subversion repository,
- mediawiki-i18n[8] for discussion of MediaWiki internationalisation support,
- wikibugs-l[9] for notification of changes to the bug tracker.

Posting to the list.
Before posting to this list, please read the MediaWiki FAQ[10]. Many common
questions are answered here. You may also search the list archives to see if
your question has been asked before.
Please try to ask your question in a way that enables people to answer you.
Provide all relevant details, explain your problem clearly, etc. You may
wish to read [13], which explains how to ask questions well.
To post to the list, send mail to <mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>. This is a
public list, so you should not include confidential information in mails you
send.
When replying to an existing thread, use the "Reply" or "Followup" feature of
your mail client, so that clients that understand threading can sort your
message properly. When quoting other messages, please use the "inline" quoting
style[11], for clarity.
When creating a new thread, do not reply to an existing message and change the
subject. This will confuse peoples' mail readers, and will result in fewer
people reading your mail. Instead, compose a new message for your post.
Messages posted to the list have the "Reply-To" header set to the mailing list,
which means that by default, replies will go to the entire list. If you are
posting a reply which is only interesting to the original poster, and not the
list in general, you should change the reply to only go to that person. This
avoids cluttering the list with irrelevant traffic.

I'm planning on doing a overview of the various Wiki Hosts which use
MediaWiki. Basically grouping types together, and pointing out
differences between the services (Scope, MediaWiki version and support,
what kind of extensions and services they provide).
The overview would probably be considered OR so since it's a MediaWiki
overview MediaWiki.org would probably be the best place for it.
I've grabbed a quick list from Wikipedia and memory, but if anyone knows
of another MediaWiki Host it would be helpful if they would post up a link.
Here's what I got so far:
* Wikimedia
* Wikia
* ScribbleWiki
* BluWiki
* editthis.info
* Gratis-Wiki.com
* Wiki-Site.com
* wiki-wiki.ru

Bonjour, C'est la première fois que je me sert de cette liste j'espère donc
ne pas le faire en dépit du bon sens.
J'ai beau avoir les droits administrateur... je n'arrive pas à supprimer des
pages.
Je sais, c'est complètement ridicule mais j'aurais aimé avoir un tant soit
peu la main mise sur ma création.
Wikipedia propose ce protocole à ces administrateurs :
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Processus_de_suppression_de_pag…
Mais dans mon cas l'item "oui, je confirme la supréssion" devient "Suivre
cette page".
Is there an extension that will reveal a list of broken links, bad
links, links to non-existent pages, etc?
Does anyone know of a "cool" {{Bad link}} template - I've seen one on a
wiki somewhere but can't remember where.
Thanks. And if you read this when I wrote it, get out and get with your
friends!
How does one insert an image link that shows the link text instead of
the image?
E.g., Entering something like [[Image:something.jpg|Something]] on a
wiki page would render as:
Entering something like _Something_ on a wiki page....
