Extension inventory

UNUSEDThis page serves to inventory and assess the mix of extensions that are in use for the DCS wiki. Code for "regular" extensions are hosted on Gerrit at the WMF (which is also mirrored to GitHub) with documentation at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki. Code for the DCS extensions is in the private Debt Compliance GitHub repo; and the Organic Design extensions are in the 'MediaWiki' tree of the Organic Design GitHub repo.

"Regular" Extensions

Extension	Used by WMF projects?	What does it do?	Maintenance / Last release	Used by Meza	Used by QualityBox	Alternative Extension
CirrusSearch	YES	Extends the core search for MediaWiki to be able to use Elasticsearch	Continuous	Yes	Yes
Cite	Bundled	Provides <references /> and <ref></ref> tags	Continuous	Yes	Yes
CiteThisPage	Bundled	Provides Cite This Page Special Page. Distributed by QualityBox (not Meza)	Continuous	No	Yes	UNUSED
ConfirmEdit	Bundled	Adds CAPTCHAs for page saves and other user actions to protect against spam and password-guessing	Continuous	No	Yes	UNUSED
Elastica	YES	Base Elasticsearch functionality by providing the Elastica library; required by CirrusSearch.	Continuous	Yes	Yes
Gadgets	Bundled	Provides a way for users to pick JavaScript or CSS based "gadgets" that other wiki users provide.	Continuous	No	Yes	UNUSED
ImageMap	Bundled	The ImageMap extension allows clickable image maps.	Continuous	Yes	Yes	UNUSED
InputBox	Bundled	The InputBox extension adds already created HTML forms to wiki pages.	Continuous	Yes	Yes	UNUSED
Interwiki	Bundled	The Interwiki extension adds the "Special:Interwiki" page to MediaWiki, to view and edit the interwiki table, and a log of any actions made with it.	Continuous	Yes	Yes	UNUSED
LocalisationUpdate	Bundled	allows to update the localizations for MediaWiki messages at any time, without needing to upgrade the MediaWiki software.	Continuous	No	No	UNUSED
Nuke	Bundled	The Nuke extension makes it possible for sysops to mass delete pages.	Continuous	No	Yes	For whatever reason, the DCSNuke extension intercepts page requests for the Nuke special page. DCSNuke has no added functionality. I thought that potentially the reason to use a cloned extension was to totally customize the interface language strings, but that's not the case. Remove DCSNuke.
