[edit] What can this extension do?
This is a wiki extention which integrates WordPress comments anywhere on any mediawiki page.
- On mediawiki sites which require registration, Extension:WordPress Comments allows visitors to comment on certain pages without logging in.
[edit] Purpose
This extension is an attempt of melding some of the great aspects of MediaWiki and WordPress together. Most internet users are not familiar with MediaWiki's talk page format. In some cases it is worthwhile to get transitory information from viewers in a blog format which most users are familiar with. WordPress excels at providing one of the best interfaces to do this. Wordpress has an administrative section which allows the site owner to moderate comments posted by viewers. Now the wiki site owner can moderate comments, possibly getting information or direction from comments of the viewers.
[edit] Usage
Wherever you want to add WordPress blog comments to a wiki page.
