This extension add a SignWriting viewer to MediaWiki software. The code is a wrapper for the SignWriting Thin Viewer which utilizes the SignWriting Icon Server available on Wikimedia Labs. This is useful for wikis that wish to use sign language (for deaf contributors and readers). We're going to set up an instance on the Wikimedia incubator for testing.
