We're using Mediawiki at our company, but one gripe with it is that the Talk pages are separate. Ideally we would like to see a comments section at the bottom of the actual pages - with an add comment button. Nothing fancy just a list of comments with the username and date in there.
Does anyone know of any extenstion that does this or have any idea how easy it would be to write one?

You can add to each page where you want it:
[{{fullurl:{{TALKPAGENAME}}|action=edit}} Edit comments] [{{fullurl:{{TALKPAGENAME}}|action=edit|section=new}} New comment]
Or you can use the recently added __NEWSECTIONLINK__ magic word, if you run version 1.7. (See also http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4876)
(The possibility to modify MW to _always_ include the link is there, too – see the above-mentioned patch, the change would be trivial.)
