Wiki Wrapper
Is there a way to pull a website into one of Wiki's window? More clearly, I'd like to use Wiki to overlay onto a webpage, kind of like Joomla or Mambo does with it's "wrappers". I want to keep the navigation of Wiki, but pull up an external website into one of Wiki's frames. Does this make sense? Is it possible?

Enabling "all" Mode in CategoryTree
Is there any drawback to enabling "all" mode in CategoryTree for this site as described here Extension:CategoryTree? It would allow pages to show up as leaves in a category tree as well as subcategories which would help with browsing large categories like Category:Extensions by hook usage. --Cneubauer 20:46, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Looks like you can already do this at Special:CategoryTree. --Cneubauer 16:50, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Brief description of $wgNamespaceAliases
Hi. Recently I posted a question about accuracy of the description, which caused confusion in translation. What do you think about this? Mulukhiyya 10:31, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

MediaWiki: edits request
Could some sysop please make the following changes?


 * Change MediaWiki:Phpdoc/cs containing currently “Dokumenatce kódu” to “Dokumentace kódu” (just a typo).
 * Create MediaWiki:Site/cs containing “Tento web”
 * Create MediaWiki:Mailing lists/cs containing “E-mailové konference”.
 * Create MediaWiki:Bug tracker/cs containing “Sledování chyb”.
 * Fix MediaWiki:Sidebar so that “Download from SVN” is localizable, then change the corresponding MediaWiki: pages for /cs translation so that the link reads “Stažení ze SVN” and links to Download from SVN/cs.
 * Fix the sidebar once again, so that “Support desk” is localizable, then change the corresponding /cs translation page to “Žádost o podporu”.

Thanks, --Mormegil 10:44, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Done (captions only). --Kaganer 21:45, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Special:Popularpages
I notice that MW.org doesn't have a Special:Popularpages page. Is this because the administrators specifically removed it for this wiki, or because it is removed from the software in 1.13? Smaug 00:52, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It is disabled in all Wikimedia wikis, like all the features of the built-in hits counter. – rotemliss – Talk 17:12, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Delete history
Hello! Is there a way to delete the history of an article in my wiki? So often I change an article so longer will be the list of the versions. Isn't it space on my disc, if there are so many versions to an article in my wiki? So I want to delete the history time to time, but how? Thank you for your replies, Doc Taxon 05:20, 26 March 2008 (UTC)


 * You should ask this question in the Support Desk; this page is not the place to ask about the software. I think what you want is possible, though I do not know how either. Smaug  21:51, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
