#1: different types of documents
There a several kinds of documents: specifications, install- and usage guides,
projekt plans, checklists and such.
Q: Is there a way to have a template per doctype?
Use a different namespace for each document type and install the
Preloader extension. End blatant self-advertisement. :)
#2: Own tags and influence on the search
capabilities?
If i decide to use a 'homegrown' tag-scheme to markup different document types
(e.g. an extension that makes docbook - markup usable inside wiki-code), how
does this influence the search?
Is the <something> </somthing>- tag ignored but the content inside the tag
still made aviable to fulltext search?
It *should* be.
#3:View/Search permissions by category?
Q:If i want to seperate techie and user information - would having seperate
namespaces for both and a common one (for general information concerning
both) solve that problem?
It's one solution.
If an user starts a search it should only search the
'user' and 'common'
namespace, not the 'techie' one.
Edit the default preferences and change the default namespaces-to-search.
#4: Templates
Q: I`ve found very few templates/template examples for use in corporate wikis
- and zero information about 'default' templates already builtin in
mediawiki.
Perhaps i`ve been looking in the wrong places - any hints to template
examples/copy-pastable sets would be VERY great.
There are no built-in templates. You can pinch templates from, e.g.
the English Wikipedia using Special:Export, or just copy-pasting the
source markup into your own wiki.
