Many contributors to tests at incubator complain
because of the
prefixes in the title.
This problem consists, of course, of two parts: creating pages &
linking to pages
A solution for creating pages I am developing, is a (special) page
where you have to select the language and project, give page title,
and it will take care of the prefix, possibly with cookies
Now, where should I make that page? I have atm 3 possibilities:
* On my toolserver account:
http://toolserver.org/~robin/?tool=createpage
<http://toolserver.org/%7Erobin/?tool=createpage> -- working (but
without cookies)
** Good, but outside incubator itself
* Manipulated page with javascript:
http://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CreatePage -- interface
ready but does not do anything (yet)
** Easy, directly on incubator but javascript is bad for these things...
* MediaWiki extension -- nothing (yet)
** Best solution, but I don't have commit access
Please give ideas, comments, ...
Otherwise I am almost the only person posting on this mailing list
(well, sorry for all my spam then :p)
PS: The Incubator logo has been added to the logo at the main page; a
step closer to get incubator known :)
Greetings, Robin
For creating the pages a simple form on the wiki could be useful.
By
using the {{int:Lang}} meachanism used on Commons, it would be easy to
prefill the form with the language code. It's not so easy to obtain the
project code, but that can be solved by giving five text fields and
buttons - one for each project. The user would have to add the pagename
and hit the "create page" button.
This would of course only work, if the language is selectable in the
preferences. This isn't the case for most tests on the Incubator as I
just saw. But as it is useful anyway to be able to choose the language,
you want to work on, in the preferences, that should be changed.
The easiest way to make it work for linking would be a gadget, I guess.
Just a little Javascript, that adds the prefixes on save.
