Hi!
Nice extension!
Why do these tabs are dependent on namespaces? Is it possible to create tabs by tag extension, like this: <createtab name="bla" href="http://ex.org" />
If so, it would be nice to insert such pieces of code into the templates and customize the parts of the wiki dependent of the content.
Cheers, Yury Katkov, WikiVote

Hi, guys.
I've recently written an extension[1] which allows to easily inject custom tabs into the standard Subject-Talk scheme (with some fancy toys like tabs re-arranging). This is the feature that is currently implemented on some Wikinews and Wiktionary projects via JavaScript.
Prior discussion took place at Bugzilla and evolved into the RfC[2] (look for Bugzilla link there). The coding is quite done (see [1]), but one change is on review in Gerrit[3] (introduces same namespace tabs for Wiktionary + code redesign); it lacks attention so it hasn't been merged yet. People at Wikinews and Wiktionary are commonly not against the new extension.[5][6]
I sent an e-mail to Howie Fung, as it is suggested in "Writing an extension for deployment" manual on MediaWiki.org,[4] but I haven't received any response yet.
I don't know what should I add here, so please could you take care of it? I'll be glad to answer your questions!
