As I have been talking to third-party MW users quite a
lot recently, I
notice that one of the major issues they are facing is the lack of
visibility on
MW.org.
Proposals welcome.
I have seen some previous work like that has been
reverted because WMF does not want to endorse any external parties on
mw.org.
[citation needed] :)
It would be useful to know about these reverts in order to understand
the reasons and how we all can do better next itme.
However, at the same time I see some pages featuring
such users such as
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_testimonials and
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_with_BitNami. So my question here
is how much is acceptable?
Totally acceptable?
The only limitations I can think of are the usual: unmaintained, broken
or unsecure software, misleading use of trademarks or ownership... Other
than that this is a free software project interested in promoting the
activities of the community and remarkable uses done by third parties.
