Building a new site
Need to figure out the best use of namespace and if there is a way to utilize a namespace feed to promote entries by date in descending order to emulate a blog in that regard. Other than that, this Wiki will be a wiki by use.
Click here to browse what I've worked on most recently.
Top on my list to look at next
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:News
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList
- http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:MediaWiki_extensions
- Research more Skin options (or continue and alter the current)
Low on my list
- What to do about the Galleria?
- Not overly keen on harvesting out my pictures on Photobucket
- Look into archiving the existing pictures (mostly the kid pics) and dumping various pictures
- Investigate the upload issue (perms?)
- Investigate whether or not the Wiki upload feature is good enough (I don't mass upload anymore really).
- Mull over forcing a new window for external links
To Do
- Pay for the domains in May
- Investigate utilizing the Blog namespace and how to sort by date (also see New above)
- Migrate from the old site
- Clean up old articles in the Category:Cleanup area
- Settle on a Skin
- Decide about registration (hinging on by Request only)
- Create the wiki.rabbibob.com DNS namespace (possibly)
