That's great. However, these things need to be tested and approved by one of the developers who is authorised to do this (ie who has shell access). You can file a request on bugzilla <
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org> - but, like I say, it would be good to do as much homework in advance as possible, so that the developers don't need to spend so much time on it to get it up and running.
I've used tp://
simile.mit.edu/timeline/ as an inspiration for wikitimeline and compined it with my knowledge from my previous project,
http://www.wikitimescale.org
After mixing the best of those two projects I think I've created a very usefull tool for Wikiversity and any other MediaWiki wiki.
Just out of curiosity, did you specifically design this for Wikiversity? Are you active (or even simply registered) on Wikiversity? Do you have any Wikiversity pages in mind where you think it might be usefully deployed right now?
In any case, I'm very appreciative of someone thinking of specifically applying their extension to Wikiversity. I definitely think we need more people who can code and test extensions, so that we can cointinue to augment mediawiki functionality for educational purposes.
