ArticleCreationWorkflow helps users create new pages, intercepting article creation for new users and giving them the wiki-configurable options such as using the Article wizard, creating a draft as a user subpage.

Installation

• If using VagrantMediaWiki-Vagrant, install with vagrant roles enable articlecreationworkflow --provision

Manual installation

• Download and place the file(s) in a directory called ArticleCreationWorkflow in your extensions/ folder.

• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:

  wfLoadExtension( 'ArticleCreationWorkflow' );
  

• Y Done - Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Configuration settings

• $wgArticleCreationLandingPage: the name of the wiki page to which users should be redirected if intercepted.
• $wgArticleCreationWorkflows: lists conditions when attempts to create a page should be redirected to Special:CreatePage. Any condition matching is enough to redirect.

Format:

[
	condition 1,
	condition 2,
	. . .
]

Condition format:

[
	'namespaces' => [ namespace 1, namespace 2, ... ],
	'excludeRight' => 'some right',
]

• 'namespaces' (required) - namespaces you want to redirect from.
• 'excludeRight' (optional) - don't redirect users with this right.

Example configuration:

$wgArticleCreationWorkflows = [
	[
		'namespaces' => [ NS_MAIN ],
		'excludeRight' => 'autoconfirmed',
	],
];
