Definitely check out the extensions released by Microsoft: https://github.com/microsoft/MediaWiki-Extensions

Some extensions that I may choose to install.

* https://www.~~mediawiki~~.~~org~~/~~wiki~~/Extension:WebChat used by the [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Version TranslateWiki.net community]

#{{Done}} [[:mw:Extension:CirrusSearch]] because the regular [http://www.searchtools.com/analysis/mediawiki-search/index-mediawiki-search-stinks.html MySQL search stinks]. See [[Search]]

* https:~~//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/~~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.

#[[:mw:Extension:SimpleBatchUpload]] is a super simplified upload extension by Stephan Gambke

#[[:mw:Extension:AdvancedSearch]] is a new interface to ElasticSearch

#[[:mw:Extension:Flow]] is a threaded discussion replacement for 'Talk' pages.

#{{Done}} [[:mw:Extension:WebChat]] used by the [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Version TranslateWiki.net community]

#[[: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.

#[[:mw:Extension:WikiLove]] or [[:mw:Extension:Thanks]] for community building

#[[:mw:Extension:Cargo]] Cargo instead of SMW

#[[:mw:Extension:DrawioEditor]] (https://github.com/mgeb/mediawiki-drawio-editor) https://Draw.io integration. But there are problems with the handling of SVG<ref>https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138783</ref> nb. there is also the [[:mw:Extension:Drawio]] project

#{{Done}} [[: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]]

#[[:mw:Extension:TimedMediaHandler]] Timed Media Handler for displaying video

#[[:mw:Extension:MultimediaViewer]] a better multimedia viewer? (it's listed as being used on [[commons:Main Page|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 [https://bitbucket.org/ciberandy/qiv/overview qiv] through the browser. There is a [[Gadgets|gadget]] in use on Commons called [[commons:Help:FastCCI|FastCCI]] for example, view this file [[File:Comparison_optical_telescope_primary_mirrors.svg|thumb|Current and Proposed Telescopes by size]]

#[[:mw:Extension:Wikidiff2]] <code>apt-get install php-wikidiff2</code> 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.

#{{Cancelled}} <strike>[[:mw:Extension:Math]] for math formulas. Add the [[:mw:Mathoid|Mathoid]] service</strike> We get better [[Math]] results with SimpleMathJax

#[[:mw:Extension:Page Schemas]] for easily generating the forms and data structures that you would use to effect semantic models.

#Cindy Cicalese's [[mw:Extension:PluggableAuth|Extension:PluggableAuth]] and [[mw:Extension:OpenID_Connect|Extension:OpenID_Connect]] (and SAML?). to provide '''Single Sign-On''' options.

#[[:mw:Extension:Realnames]] for using a person's real name throughout the UI instead of user names which may be less identifiable: e.g. 'boomshakalaka'

#[[mediawikiwiki:Extension:NearbyPages|Extension:NearbyPages]] for finding other pages (or users?) nearby using a geolocation api

==More Roadmap==

#like [[:mw:Extension:Page Schemas]], [https://www.npmjs.com/package/mobo mobo] (a node.js package) can be used to develop specific use case models for SMW and is considered a "Deploy Automation Framework" because it lives outside the wiki, but can inject into the wiki the data structures (and changes) that are needed to use the model in the organization.

#[[:mw:Extension:Matomo]] for integrating the '''Matomo''' [[analytics]] platform (which is local so you control your data)

#Add service for visualization of the wiki

#[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143350 Visual Diff] is coming

#https://collaborate.mitre.org/extensions/index.php/Hierarchy_Builder

==Distributions==

Compare [https://demo.qualitybox.us/wiki/Special:Version QualityBox extensions] with [[mediawikiwiki:BlueSpice|BlueSpice]], and integrate the compare tool to QualityBox importer

There is a category page that lists [[mediawikiwiki:Category:Extensions_included_in_BlueSpice|BlueSpice extensions]]
