Extension:PageInfo

What can this extension do?
This extension displays an information box near to the table of contents about creation and editing.

Overall features:
 * Displaying creator, creation date, other authors, last edit date, edit rights needed to edit this page (currently only the info "all" or "admin" supported), page views and edit state: you define the number of min/mid/max days since last edit and this extension remind you to update the article.
 * Displays also other authors and the number of watchers and edits. (so, the extension replaces/includes the siteinfo query).
 * When the table of content is present, it will be placed right of it (JS needed); otherwise before article content.
 * You can save the state (hide or show) with cookies enabled on.

Usage
This extension just displays some information on every wiki content page. No interactive elements.
