Extension:Comments/de

The Comments extension adds the parser hook tag to allow commenting on articles where the tag is present.

Comment actions are logged to, but by default they're hidden, just like  log entries. You can set  to show comments log entries in Special:RecentChanges (available in version 2.8+).

Majority of the code fixes were done by Misza and Jack Phoenix.
