Extension:Surl

The Surl extension provides a special page that helps create shortened URLs for wiki pages. The short link is added to a semantic property 'Surl' of BASEPAGEs manually. 'Surl's for the SUBPAGEs can be added automatically. The extension adds the short and long links of the page to a separate Yourls database. Primarily developed for use in WikiTranslate.org. Surl stands for Short URL.
