Changes

<li>We are the developers of the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Html2Wiki|Html2Wiki] extension which lets you import HTML web pages into your wiki.<li>[[mw:Extension:QuickLink|Extension:QuickLink]] should be updated. It provides an easy way to link to other articles while editing.<li>[[mw:Extension:TitleKey|Extension:TitleKey]] ([https://git.wikimedia.org/summary/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FTitleKey.git|git] ) is written by Brion Vibber and offers interesting capability that is used on some/all? MW sites. Also, since it interacts with the MW internal search, it's a good example of how to create an extension that hooks into the search functionality. The TitleKey extension provides a case-insensitive title prefix search. It uses a separate table for the keys, so if it works cleanly it can be deployed without an expensive rebuild of core tables, and dumped when Wikimedia gets a nicer backend through Extension:LuceneSearch (pre 1.13) or Extension:MWSearch (1.13+). Note that MediaWiki has stopped using LuceneSearch and is now using [[mw:Extension:CirrusSearch]] which interfaces to [[wp:Elasticsearch]] (which is based on Lucene) on the backend.

The Interwiki Extension has been added which makes it easy to manipulate the interwiki table. http://mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SpecialInterwiki But what is the Interwiki table you say? The Interwiki table sets up internal namespaces making it convenient for authors to create links to other wikis. For example, you can link to a '''Wikipedia''' article with the following syntax: '''  <nowiki>[[WikiPedia:Thomas_Jefferson]]</nowiki> '''.
