Template:Extension changes
Hi - I believe you may have messed up Template:Extension because pages in the namespace Extension just don't look ok anymore. I am using FF v2.0.0.6. Jean-Lou Dupont 17:56, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Template Extension Sample
Hmm, I was trying to figure out this edit and why the speedy was added to a page which is used as a  on the Extension#Create_a_new_extension_article page. It seems like that page is needed or the preload will fail. Thanks, still trying to figure this stuff out. &mdash; MrDolomite &bull; Talk 00:43, 10 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Heh, no problem. At least now I think I have the path of how that Extension:Inputbox stuff works right in my head.  That's too bad that the   and   parameter pages do not actually show up as real links.  1) it would prevent any kind of accidental deletion and B) it would make it a lot easier to figure this stuff out. :) &mdash; MrDolomite &bull; Talk 16:04, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Extension:NukeDPL type
Are you sure that type should have been changed to "page action" from "special"? It's a special-page which allows you to select a list of articles based on a DPL query and then delete them along with their histories. --Nad 00:47, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

New "SMW extensions" category
Hi,

Thanks for creating the new "SemanticMediaWiki extensions" category - it's already useful, and will be more so in the future. However, you should probably rename it to "Semantic MediaWiki extensions", since the original extension has that space in its name. Yaron Koren 15:24, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Wiki configuration
Greetings, thank you for your comments on the support desk. I tried a few different versions of the wikipedia software and all yield the same result with munged tables as a result of included gt lt at various points. Still havent figured it out. For example I looked at Navbox and dug into it and the documentation states it relies upon Template:Qif which is deprecated by ParserFunctions.

I was pondering this and am wondering if there might be some magic within the php.ini or LocalSettings.php and am hoping you could send me yours so I could emulate your configuration and pinpoint what may be the problem. I feel there must be something I dont understand that Ive missed.

Many thanks. Nick

Re: How is search a page action?
From the taxonomy in Template_talk:Extension I think nearest match is special page, since LuceneSearch redefines the default mysql search on Special:Search. "Page action" is a bit misleading, because it implies that it's search within a page and not whole wiki. I guess that search is a core function of any wiki, and is different from other special pages, so there is some argument to single it out, especially if there are other implementations that would fall into this type... --Rainman 20:32, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
