Hi, I'm using MediaWiki 1.8.x (mostly) and have three questions:
1) Does MediaWiki have the ability to check for bad links/link checker functionality? I saw/tested this extension http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LinkSearch but looks like it's more for "information" than has the additional utility I'm looking for. How do others handle the management of links going bad/dead links with MediaWiki?
2) Is upgrading from 1.8.x to 1.10.x okay to do OR do you recommend going from 1.8.x to 1.9.x to 1.10.x?
3) I have gotten my bulk import to work using an XML file and Special:Import page. Is there another way that you could bulk export ALL your records without have to do it manually using the Special:Export page? I suppose I could extract from MySQL table just the page titles... and then paste into the Special:Export page but just thought I'd check first on the listserv.
Thank you, Karen
