Hi,
There are so many extensions useful to the enterprise but probably also so
many which are not useful at all or not maintained and if I wanted to start
a corporate wiki right now I would probably be very lost what to look at
and how people do things, so it seemed like a good idea to list the
extensions that ARE actually used. Also, I guess one team solved a certain
problem one way, while another solved it differenty, using a different
extension or set of extensions, so writing this out might help everybody
get new ideas/ avoid reinventing the wheel. But I guess I either asked on
the wrong list or there is not much interest at all.

thinking if everybody adds some information about extensions/pages they
find particularly useful in the enterprise world, it will help future

worthwhile?
IMHO there are so much useful extensions that I think it can be a little
much for that page.
For example if I edited that article I would put almost all extensions
from our distribution there... so I'm documenting them on
http://wiki.4intra.net/**Category:Mediawiki4Intranet_**extensions<http:/…)
The question is, how much they are stable and secure. MediaWiki is
high-quality
software that should not be impaired by low-quality extension.
Also, when extension is unmaintained, it's stability and security becomes
questional as well.
Also, I remember for major MW extensions scalability is the big problem.
Efficient SQL queries, using APC / Memcached cache, not invalidating parser
cache too often. For example my own Extension:QPoll is not well-scaling
requiring some major rewrites. That applies to many of another extensions
as well.
