Help

MediaWiki Forums (unofficial, but the response seems to be positive)

Wish List

RSS/Atom feeds for:
- Specific pages only
- Watched pages only
- Other users' contributions only (maybe the ability to select which users to include, with "[x]new users" being an option -- then you'd check everyone except yourself, and new users would automatically get added to the list)
...and are there feed readers out there which can do this kind of filtering on their own, perhaps? They seem to be the exception, rather than the rule, and anyway as long as the feed itself contains Every Change To The Site, I can't use it as a source for a public aggregator page (e.g. the one at SluggySquad). Seems like filter parameters should be part of the URL, even, though I doubt that's the case.

Developer Documents

A number of documents are included with the MediaWiki package, found in the /docs directory. They are reproduced here for easier reference, annotation, and discussion. (The actual names are all lowercase.)

This page is in need of updating. These articles all reference old documentation; it's not clear whether it's worth keeping them up-to-date (are they found anywhere on mediawiki.org?). Also, the pages should be renamed to lowercase where appropriate and as subpages of this page, e.g. /deferred.doc.
