Re: [Mediawiki-l] Annotating a protected document on a per-user, per-section basis

I've posted an existing document to a MediaWiki and broken it up into sections (not pages). I want registered users to comment on each section as follows: * Users can add/edit/delete their own comments section * Users (except admins) can't edit/delete other people's sections * Users (except admins) can't edit the original document at all: it's protected * Users' comments will be fairly long: multiple lines, not a single line * At the bottom of the page, users can add general comments, not specific to a given section What's the best way to do this? Using the inputbox extension (thanks for letting me know about this, Lonny!)? Or something else? What I have now is ugly and doesn't do some of the things above: http://wiki.lspace.org/index.php?title=Sandbox&oldid=10855 [pretend this page is protected and named APF-the-light-fantastic] Bad things about this: * Each "comment block" is a new page, which may confuse users-- they want to add a comment and end up on a blank page. I realize I can use "Preload" (or even inputbox) to pre-load a template when a new page is created, but that still seems ugly. * Once a "comment block" page is created, the search engine may return it as a result, confusing users (they want to see the document with annotations, not a single annotation). The comment block pages are "subpages" of the original, but that's still not great * Since the "comment block" is just a regular MediaWiki page, users can edit/delete each other's comments (this part actually doesn't bug me too much-- it's important that the original document be uneditable, but it may be OK if users can edit/delete each other's comments) * Overall, I sense my approach is kludgey and incorrect. I'm sure there's a more standardized/"correct" way of doing this.
