This 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[edit | edit source]

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[1]. Remove DCSNuke.
