Potential bugs for hacking sessions

 * 44205 - rename userrights to usergroups
 * 42964 - Add support for more types of Flickr URLs to UploadWizard
 * 27087 - Rename curid and wgArticleId to pageid and wgPageId
 * 10268 - Watchlist RSS feed should include diffs (like page history RSS does. See also: 471 - Basic XML Feed support for watchlist)
 * Does the RC feed omit diffs for pages in the MediaWiki namespace?
 * 7908 - Footnotes content should appear in a tooltip | 5231 - Mouseover explanations for interlanguage links in native languages
 * 14901 - Email notification mistakes log action for new page creation (don't send emails saying a page was created when it was deleted, protected, etc. See also Extension:Email notification/to-do. Also, there was a post in the planet wikimedia about simplifying the email text, but I can't find it... Account Creation Improvement Project/Testing content?). Meta-bug for email notification issues: 1932
 * Special:UserList and Special:ActiveUsers: Add option to filter out blocked users. (see 33545)
 * Special:UserList: Contributions filter should only consider non-deleted contributions.
 * Add checkbox to Patrol log to allow hiding automatic patrols
 * Undeleting a page should show a checkbox to undelete the corresponding subject/talk dual
 * Investigate illegal title issues (see gmail chat log w/ Robin, Manual:$wgIllegalFileChars, Manual:$wgLegalTitleChars, docs/title.txt, and includes/Title.php's )
 * Try uploading a file and setting its target filename to include a /
 * "Associated namespace" checkbox in Special:RecentChanges should work also when namespace filter is inverted
 * Auto-generated icons for sidebar items: lowercase everything; replace periods (and possibly other special characters) with dashes
 * Why is  a virtual namespace rather than a parser function?
 * CLI  + sqlite bugs: 40966 (using a zero for the SQLite database name —as in 0.sqlite— breaks installation without warnings) and 28512 (SQLite installation via CLI fails to expand ~ in path)
 * Both could probably be fixed with something like
 * Other core sqlite bugs
 * 65451: Better use of space in gallery layouts
 * Make a new tool to display a graphical timeline of the user's status & activity across wikimedia wikis, as a mix of meta:User:Waldir and https://github.com/waldyrious/learning-holography/graphs/contributors.
 * Sorting possibly based on most active overall (most cumulative edits) or most active recently. To be tested.
 * Alternatively to a smooth plot (both for individual projects and cumulative), investigate if it would work better to display as bars, à lá github / ohloh / supercount
 * Potentially some ideas at Bug 700 - Code quality issues (tracking)
 * Visual Editor
 * It should be possible to see the diff or the preview in one click, rather than going to the "Publish changes" dialog first
 * In the diff view, pressing "publish changes" should return to the edit summary box, otherwise the edit is saved without a summary!
 * In the edit summary, the Enter key should be usable to submit (edit summaries can't be multiline anyway)
 * List items should have a space after the  or
 * Code editing should have syntax highlighting
 * Is it possible to change the URL when following a redirect? What are the drawbacks? Cache invalidation? Reload (new HTTP request)?
 * It is possible client-side, see 143852, 35045 and 39328. I wonder if there are other reasons not to change the URL...
 * Would it be possible to enable transclusion of Special:Random?
 * 140975
 * Allow  parameter to   so wikitext can be passed directly in the url (and thus customized, while a preload file can't take parameters). See Manual:Creating pages with preloaded text and Manual:Parameters to index.php
 * Allow filtering popular pages by namespace (e.g. Special:PopularPages/talk). Also allow transcluding it and adding a limit (Special:PopularPages/10 or Special:PopularPages?limit=10). This would enable making a box similar to the common "popular posts" feature in various blogging platforms.
 * Toolforge tools:
 * Resurrect User:Nickj's link suggester (Can We Link It?) Notes on Workflowy.
 * See my archived userpage on Toolserver for more old ideas.
