Issues
- DjVu support not working in Proofread Page
- requested .htaccess added line:
AddType text/css .css - upload filesize limit set at 8MB in apache
- LaTex support?
Functions
Things that work here or at least should
Import sources
- Special:Import transwiki import| works from the following sources:
Most of these have been tested.
Namespaces
- Transwiki = NS 3010
- Author = NS 3100
- Index = NS 3200
- Page = NS 3210
- Meta namespace (NS 4) was called Doug's Wiki: and then dougswiki: but is now called Project:, dougswiki: remains a valid alias
- No other namespaces currently have aliases
I set the numbers for the custom namespaces really high to avoid any conflicts should I later decide to add Semantic MediaWiki or simply add namespaces that normally aren't used on the same wiki other places. Transwiki does not have a talk space declared.
User rights
- Sysops have extended rights here
- A special user group "Librarians" exists with general rights including delete, import, and upload_by_url
- Confirmed users have very limited editing rights
- Registered users have no rights to edit until they both confirm their e-mail address and send me an e-mail asking for confirmed status
- IPs have no editing rights
- Bots of Sysops, and probably of Librarians, are welcome
If you wonder why the editing restrictions are so tight, look at the name of the wiki - I do not have time to deal with vandals and spam, so I won't
Interwiki links and transclusion
- Scary transclusion is enabled for selected sites
- An interwiki table exists at Special:Interwiki, which also identifies the scary transclusion sites
- The table can be edited from the wiki interface by sysops
File types
Upload of the following file types, in addition to the standard types, is allowed (confirmed users):
- tif, tiff
- odt, ods (Open Office)
None of these have been tested, multipage formats will probably have the same problem as DjVu and Paged Tiff Handling and Pdf Handling have not been configured
- Sideloading is enabled in the Local Settings (Librarians and Sysops) but may not be allowed by the server
- Tested - works File:Sideloadtest.jpg, note that the sideload does not automatically populate with the source!
- Instant Commons is enabled but has not been tested
- Test:
-
-
- Works! - Some discussion at mw:Manual:$wgUseInstantCommons that this may have trouble with diacritics, not tested.
-
-
- Doesn't appear to work correctly with a DjVu, viz: File:Word_Book_for_Graded_German_Readers,_Booklets_1-10_(1936).djvu, but interestingly does bypass the server limits on uploads
Extensions
Syntax Highlighting is broken and bugzilla has been submitted
Other
- Page titles may be overridden completely using the magic word {{DISPLAYNAME}}
- Search highlighting is turned on
