My #MediaWiki medium heat take on #LuaModules is that we don't make them magic ✨️ enough because most modules are converted from wikitext.
With substitution, Lua allows us to transform any user input into any output we want! So more templates should just accept more types of inputs.
For instance, my https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Шаблон:Годы_жизни needs Wikidata item ID to work but it accepts 1) plain old page titles, 2) wikitext with links, 3) interwiki links, and 4) pasted URLs to Wikidata, and just transforms them.

Wissensmanagement im Nexus: MediaWiki, Discourse & Confluence out of the Box
In modernen Organisationen ist Wissen die entscheidende Ressource. Ob als kollaboratives Nachschlagewerk, als strukturierte Projektdokumentation oder als lebendige Community-Diskussion: ohne ein gut eingebundenes Wiki- oder Wissenssystem verlieren Teams wertvolle Zeit.Das Infinito.Nexus stellt deshalb drei etablierte Systeme out of the box bereit: MediaWiki, Discourse und Confluence. Alle drei sind nahtlos über LDAP und OpenID Connect (OIDC) in den eigenen Mikrokosmos eingebunden – entweder über das vom Nexus bereitgestellte OpenLDAP oder über eine direkte Active-Directory-Integration, falls bereits eine Microsoft-Infrastruktur vorhanden ist. Damit wird Infinito.Nexus zu einer echten Alternative zu Microsoft SharePoint: leistungsfähig, flexibel, anpassbar und voll OnPremise kontrollierbar. […] -
Random thought for those that are wondering what to switch to now that #Wordpress has apparently gone rogue and can't be trusted any more.
Depending on your needs does #Mediawiki fit? MW markdown but it is forms driven.
I've seen some sites with custom themes that look unlike Mediawiki. Sorry, examples escape, maybe I'll try to find some when back in front of the computer.
FWIW been running MW for archiving personal data for ~15 years. Been solid as a rock short of stupid human tricks.

#Highlight after highlight 🤩
Where do you start to #document #companyknowledge? Which knowledge is relevant at all? @SilviaSchorta talked about this at the last #BlueSpice #ProductDays.
