So this isn't too big of an issue, but I've realized that we have three extensions that do exactly the same thing:
Extension:Gist http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Gist Extension:Gists http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Gists Extension:GitHub http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GitHub
And by exactly the same thing, I mean the code is nearly identical. All three have the exact same effect of adding in a <script> tag when the <gist> tag is used in a page.
For the sake of making things easier on people who might actually want to use one of these three extensions, could we maybe pick one?
Who's we? WMF isn't using any for obvious reasons (arbitrary code injection).
If someone is interested (please make sure it's on a wiki with closed registration), I would recommend https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Gists since it's hosted on GitHub (pull requests beat edit conflicts any day).
