Hello all,

one early question we are currently debating is how to store Wikitext documentation alongside with the structured data?

So, the label of the page and aliases and the actual content object are stored as JSON, but then we would like to have the documentation be more or less normal wikitext.

So in this mockup

The text "en:Multiplication is a mathematical operation that...", that's just wikitext. And it is different per language. Obviously, it would be great to represent that as abstract content, but we are not there yet. Until we get to that level of inception, the question is - where and how do we store that text and how is it combined with the structured data about the object on the page.

James wrote up a task with an overview of the options.

That's a question that would benefit from input.

Thank you,
Denny
