Hi,
On my wiki I've seen a lot of users trying to change their username by
renaming their user page. What would be the "best" way to hide the
"Rename" tab on user pages ?
Thank you for any advice.

CSS I guess.. Using CSS:
body.ns-2 #siteSub { display:none; }
Add it CSS file and it will remove the move tab. Tested in monobook

Hello,
is there a simple trick to completely "write protect" a wiki?
My actual solution: Redirect via webserver to a page with "under
construction" info. But preventing page creation and file upload
during maintenance looks like a more elegant way.
Greetings,

When I look at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki, I see collapsing
sidebar elements.
I can't figure out how to do that on my own mw installation.
Can some kind soul point me in the right direction?
Much obliged.

Well, new-ish extension: it was released last week, but version 0.2 was just
released, and now it appears to be fairly stable. Approved Revs is meant to
be a lightweight alternative to FlaggedRevs, for small- to medium-scale
wikis. It lets administrators mark a single revision of a page as approved,
and the approved revision is what's shown to users, even when the page is
transcluded.
You can read more, and download the extension, here:

Hi folks,
I saw there was some agitation on IRC about Subversion to Git conversion.
I'll put in a +1 for it....for what little MediaWiki development I've done,
I've found that it would have been made much much simpler if the main repo
was Git/Hg/whatever.
A good primer for the Subversion adherents is "Subversion Re-education" from
Joel Spolsky:
http://hginit.com/00.html
Don't pay any attention to the fact that it's talking about Mercurial and is
pimping his Mercurial-based product. The same DVCS virtues he extols apply
to Git or Bazaar or probably even Darcs.
Now, as to *which* DVCS to switch to, here's a pretty persuasive case for
Git:
http://blog.extracheese.org/2010/05/why-i-switched-to-git-from-mercurial.ht…
(...and I say this as someone who has been using Mercurial for the past
couple of years)
Anyway, I've put all of this in the tracking bug for this:

Hi there,
this question sure was posted a 1000 times before, but...
How do i get all Templates and Extensions from e.g Wikipedia into my own
Wiki? Since I needed a copy of some of Wikipedia's articles as a
presentation for my own wiki, I need those templates and extensions as
well. Do I have to copy them all seperately? Or might there be an easy
way?
Cheers,
Mathias
Hi List,
this is my first posting into this mailinglist, so please excuse me if I am doing sth wrong. I am maintaining an company-wide, internaly used mediawiki installation (Version 1.12). Now, the users of this list have asked me how to link into localy saved documents, stored on a server-system. I know, this is not the normal way of doing things, but my colleagues asked me to do so as they don't want to turn the documents into html or anything, just linking them so they open (Rules for Firefox / Internet Explorer apply). Additionaly I can't force them into typing wiki-code itself, so we're using the TinyMCE Plugin to edit content.
Problem: all the links to be made will contain "space" characters, so a path will look like this: file:\\srv1\Resources & Databases\WIKI development\used\*.odt. There is no way to replace the backspace characters on the server itself...
I tried the extensions I found on this topic, (for example http://www.easy-coding.de/mediawiki-filelinkextension-t1475.html), but they did not work.
Are there any other extensions recommended, any hints? Otherwise I am stuck in this mediawiki project unfortunatly.
Kind Regards,
Michael
