  5. Write your wiki pages in Markdown!

    We've released Native Markdown, a new #OpenSource #MediaWiki extension. The entire page is stored as Markdown rather than embedded within wikitext via a tag.

    You get functioning links, categories, search, table of contents, and even templates and parser functions.

    Add it to existing wikis without breaking anything: existing pages stay wikitext, and new pages default to #Markdown.

  7. @firefoxwebdevs I believe this would reach its full potential if supported and implemented also for headers in @mediawiki transcluded pages/templates, and in situations with no front-end JavaScript, for example when computing the heading level inside @11ty includes.

  9. När ledare i projekt som drivs i form av tusentals frivilliga och ett fåtal anställda hämtas från storföretagen innebär det att det som är bra med dessa projekt och ger dem trovärdighet utsätts för risken att bli förstört och korrumperat. VI har sett tendenser till detta i Mozilla Foundation som leder utvecklingen av Firefox med mera.

  20. Behold: a MediaWiki registry for the MoribundMurdoch Tumblr archipelago, assembled before the blogs drift into the fog like poorly catalogued ephemera [temporary whatnot, maybe worth preserving, because I’m going to die & unless I set up a Doctor Who situation for my stuff, I guess it’s gone] whatnot.

    Dreams, watch-history commentary, eudaimonia [human flourishing], noctivagant [night-wandering] corridors, & other mullock [nonsense].

  28. @macandi Ich kann nur sagen man kommt sehr weit. Ich arbeite komplett auf eigenen Plattformen und realisiere das auch für Kunden. Installationen von Software mit #homebrew auf #macos Adressbücher und Kalender z.B. von #owncloud oder #nextcloud ebenso wie Cloudspeicher – kann ohne Installationen z.B. auch über @hetzner bezogen werden und ist so #dsgvo Konform und mit dem Standort in Deutschland beheimatet.
    Einzig der Wille ist entscheidend – ich gehe an der Stelle sogar noch weiter, denn meine Installationen basieren fast ausschließlich auf #opensource Plattformen wie #ucs #proxmox #truenas #vaultwarden und #mediawiki trotz der Tatsache, daß ich meistens #apple Geräte als Frontend benutze.
    Also ein ganz klares JA es geht… wenn man nur will.

  30. WikiApiary is back online after having been down and overloaded for a long time.

    Bawolff brought it back and did a ton of full stack performance work to optimise the whole system. Adding HTTP caching, tuning InnoDB, and more!

    I followed the installation guidelines for #MediaWiki , although I used some additional extensions for the interactive map.

    (The interactive map was one of the main reasons why I went with MediaWiki, and not the much simpler #DokuWiki or something similar.)
