[Wikitech-l] Re: Wikipedia Personal Views

Hi all, I have implemented the following feature in MediaWiki, which maybe some might find interesting/useful -- "Personal Views". Basically, any article page has a "Personal Views" page attached to it; on subpages of the personal views page, User's can record their personal views of the topic of the article. So, for example, User:Foo can record their personal viewpoint on Microsoft on the page Personal_Views:Microsoft/Foo, a page which only User:Foo can edit. And by going to "Personal_Views:Microsoft", we can see everyone's personal views on Microsoft. Some questions: 1. Any comments on how I implemented this? Anything in adding a new namespace I forget to do? 2. Can I add this to the CVS? Also, since my changes are relatively small, it might serve as an example of how to add a new namespace to WikiMedia. (Maybe I can turn it into a tutorial...)
