Some extensions that I may choose to install.

  1. Done Search mw:Extension:CirrusSearch because the regular MediaWiki search sucks
  2. mw:Extension:Flow is a threaded discussion replacement for 'Talk' pages.
  3. mw:Extension:WebChat used by the TranslateWiki.net community
  4. mw:Extension:Semantic_Maps (or plain maps) for use in displaying hikes, bike routes etc. However, need to discover the applicability of the solution to the problem.
  5. mw:Extension:WikiLove or mw:Extension:Thanks for community building
  6. mw:Extension:Cargo Cargo instead of SMW
  7. mw:Extension:UploadWizard A bulk uploader in JavaScript that not only would be useful here, but would also inform as to improvements for mw:Html2Wiki
  8. mw:Extension:TimedMediaHandler Timed Media Handler for displaying video
  9. mw:Extension:MultimediaViewer a better multimedia viewer? (it's listed as being used on Commons) Certainly want to maximize the user experience in relation to Category:Graphics. There should be a better and faster way to browse images that are available in the wiki. Something that both supports thumbs and paging, and also something that supports something similar to using qiv through the browser. There is a gadget in use on Commons called FastCCI for example, view this file
    Current and Proposed Telescopes by size
  10. mw:Extension:Wikidiff2 apt-get install php-wikidiff2 word-level (space-delimited) diffs on general text, and character-level diffs on text composed of characters from the Japanese and Thai alphabets and the unified han; it includes support for Thai segmentation for word-level diffs in that language. Japanese, Chinese and Thai do not use spaces to separate words.
  11. mw:Extension:Math for math formulas. Add the Mathoid service
