| |
| − | Wiki is the Hawaiian word for quick, and Ward Cunningham - the inventor of the wiki - named his project after the wiki wiki shuttle. A backcronym that is probably equally apropos is WIKI stands for "What I Know Is..." MediaWiki is the free software (GPL) that runs Wikipedia under the auspices of the [http://www.wikimedia.org/ Wikimedia Foundation].

| | + | I'm Greg Rundlett, a free software advocate who lives in Newburyport, MA with my wife and two sons. I'm here to show you a lot of things about the wiki system called MediaWiki and hope that you'll take away a lot from this presentation. The great thing about sharing knowledge; like sharing free software; is that you can take away as much as you possibly can and I may take away an even greater knowledge than I started with just from our sharing. |

Well, back in 1999 when I was a web developer at RagingBull, we used a wiki system as a content creation and management backend to our website front-end. Starting in 2005, I used MediaWiki as the platform to organize operations, development and technology services at OASIS. Most recently, I've been deploying MediaWiki in my new role at the IIC at Harvard. I'm here to share some of that experience with you.

| + | == Using it == |
| − | -->
| + | I'm not going into a detailed comparison of various wikis, trying to argue which is best. But I'll point out a few reasons why you should care about MediaWiki in case you don't know. |
| − | == Using it - Why? == | |
| − | Wikis are immensely popular and come in many flavors. It was late 2006 to early 2007 when 'wiki' reached it's zenith as a buzzword in the news.<ref>[http://www.google.com/trends?q=wiki Google Trends for keyword wiki]</ref> But wikis have not faded into the sunset like last years fashion. I'll point out a few reasons why you should choose MediaWiki as your wiki platform.
| |
| | | | |
| − | It's the most popular wiki software in the world; both in terms of hosting the largest single wiki [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page WikiPedia] as well as deployments by all sort of individuals, groups and corporations. In practical terms that means people you hire will know MediaWiki. | + | It's the most popular wiki in the world. In practical terms that means people you hire will know mediawiki. |

| − | WikiPedia now has over ten million articles across 250 languages!

| − | Does your wiki have [http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Home a foundation] to keep it going?

| | | | |

| − | === Syntax ===
| + | I do want to point out that MediaWiki does not use <ref>CamelCase</ref> words in order to make a link. This means a lot to all the Irish people of the world, and also the marketers who seem pretty convinced of the coolness of McWords like ThinkPad, etc. |

| |
| − | In 2007 it was announced that a WYSIWYG editor would be built for MediaWiki. Wikia (Jimmy Wales' for-profit venture) started work on it. It still isn't ready for prime time. Note that I had to patch a minor bug to get it to work and even then, it did funny things with my article (wanted to collapse a line-break between template tag and next line resulting in a space being inserted prior to the next line, resulting in preformatted text rendering for that line.

| |
| − | OpenOffice (since v. 2.3) has had a built-in "Export to MediaWiki" menu option. So, you can write an article in OpenOffice Writer (or StarOffice Writer) and export the file to wiki markup. This could be useful particularly if you want to convert large collections of Word documents. One drawback to "export" is that you would still have to copy and paste that output into the wiki. http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/wikipublisher is the extra hook that allows you to save your page in the wiki (essentially registering your user data in the instance of OpenOffice

| − | One good practice is to have some sort of text version or other backup of your wiki in case the machine, webserver, or database that the system depends on is down. As an administrator, you can use the dumpBackup.php script found in the <code>maintenance</code> directory of you MediaWiki installation. Something like the following in a system [[cron]] would be good:
| |
| − | <source lang="bash">
| |
| − | /usr/bin/php /var/www/phase3/maintenance/dumpBackup.php --current --output=file:/var/backups/example.com/`date +%F`-wiki.text.export.txt

| |
| − | | |
| − | Another useful tool to the Administrator is the bulk image importer. To import all the screenshots that I used at the start of this presentation, I did the following:
| |
| − | <source lang="bash">
| |
| − | php importImages.php --user=Freephile --comment='Set of screenshots of sites using MediaWiki ' ~/Desktop/mediawiki/snaps/
| |
