The ToDoList extension provides a simple checklist functionality. Checklists are stored on wikipages, so each check/uncheck produces a page edit.

Checklists can form a list using standard MediaWiki functionality:

Installation

To install the extension:

Clone the repository to your extensions/ subfolder: git clone https://github.com/Griboedow/ToDoList.git
Load the extension in your LocalSettings.php: wfLoadExtension( 'ToDoList' );

To create a checklist:

Insert checkboxes via "<todo/>" parser function or via "Insert->Checkbox" in Visual editor:
Save the page
In "read" mode you can check and uncheck your checkboxes. Each state change produces a page edit:

It is an experimental extension, so it has many serious limitations:

The extension parses wikitext in JS to modify corresponding checkbox state. That means it does not work well with transclusion or <nowiki> tag.
The extension does not detect edits done by another user. For example, if someone else modifies a page, you will override their changes with your own. For that reason, it is highly recommended to update your wiki page after you've checked/unchecked everything you wanted to verify the actual state of a page.
