Storyboard is an extension developed for the Wikimedia Foundations fundraising efforts.

The stories can be managed via a story review interface and be viewed and edited individually on a special story page. See mock ups.

Story review
Stories can be reviewed via the StoryReview special page. This special page consists out of a tabbed interface that divides the stories into categories based on their state, which can be either unreviewed, reviewed or hidden. Each tab contains an ajaxscroller that will load more stories as the user scrolls down, just like with the storyboard tag. Each story has a list of controls that allow you to publish, unpublish, hide, edit and delete it, as well as show/hide and delete the authors image if one is present.

The StoryReview interface only shows stories in the specified language, which defaults to $wgContLanguageCode and can be provided by adding a 'language' parameter in the url, for example

Special:Story
The Story special page allows you to view a single story, and thus to permalink to it. It also is the place where people with the storyreview permission can edit a stories text and author information.
