Thread:Extension talk:NamespaceHTML/Testing as a tag function/reply (10)

Just a thought. The only reason, I think, it would be faster and easier to use then Widgets is it would allow users to just grab the embed code from most sites and by a minor modification allow a wikitext variable. No screwing around with smarty templates, etc., -- just the embed code from whatever site and a minor change to setting mediawiki variable. Of course with greater freedom there is a greater chance for security issues to arise. But it still seems it would encourage more "widget" creation -- my bet is that the library of possible widgets with this extension would exceed the Widget website within a month.

Anyways that's my half cent opinion. Once again all the best to you. Thanks
