Help:Extension:ParserFunctions
Hello, imho, we should import meta:Help:ParserFunctions and merge it with Extension:ParserFunctions rather than creating one new page which seems to be a duplicate of the page currently on meta. i Alex  16:34, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The page on meta shouldn't be there; all help content should be here at mediawiki.org. Once we've found a place for the content here, we can soft-redirect the help pages at meta and the various wikimedia wikis to that content and have it centralised in one place.  I've posted on Project:Forum about maybe making another help namespace for content related to extensions. Also, we can't just "import" content from meta if we want it to be freely-distributable help content, as there are license issues.  Similarly, help content can't go in the Extension: namespace.

 * Extension: namespace is fine for help about extensions, and there's already a lot of help in extensions pages (such as Extension:InputBox). It would be a pain for extensions writers to have to split documentation in two different pages (one in Help: and the other one in Extension:). i Alex  17:06, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
