Thread:Project:Support desk/Turn MediaWiki into something like Wikinews?/reply

Hi. Basically Wikinews has a bunch of extensions installed. Their is a full list at n:special:version. The most noticable of these are probably extension:Intersection (DPL), extension:ParserFunctions and extension:GoogleNewsSitemap (used for RSS feeds). Various other extensions are also used, but are more in the background. Additionally Wikinews uses some custom javascript to modify the interface. There's a [possibly outdated] overview at n:Wikinews:Javascript (For example, Easy peer review, WN:MAKELEAD are all in JS). The javascript is rather poorly written (or at least the parts I wrote are ;) and sometimes can involve effort to move to a different site.

If there is any specific Wikinews feature I missed let me know.
