Translations:Help:ChangeContentModel/6/en

Some generic content models include those meant for storing and presenting source code, but they can also be used to create customized editing interfaces. For example, instead of using a horrible mess of templates to structure content on a page, you could store the underlying data in a structured format such as JSON and then write a MediaWiki extension that builds a custom editing interface on top of this structured data. This approach is used by MassMessage to create delivery list pages and by CollaborationKit for creating WikiProjects. Although these extensions have their own workflows for creating pages, Special:ChangeContentModel can also be used.
