List of extensions used by Wikimedia without a Bugzilla maintainer:
- Cite The Cite special page and parser hook extensions.
I wrote it, it's high profile and seems to have been somewhat unloved since I left it.
I've looked at it a few times since then with the intent of fixing it up but I never got past the point of looking at Bugzilla and trying to determine what was actually needed for it and what was just the minority report of some user wanting some feature that him and 3 other people in the world are ever going to use.
Domas has also complained that it eats up resources. Is this something that can conceivably be fixed in it or is it just inherent in anything that calls the parser from an extension tag and will thus need parser fixups to get anywhere?
- Newuserlog The Newuserlog extension.
I can take it. It's not like it needs much maintenance.
- CrossNamespaceLinks The CrossNamespaceLinks special page extension.
Ditto.
- Desysop Desysop extension
Isn't this also covered by UserRights? (I don't know).
- Espionage The Espionage extension.
That's CheckUser, does that one have a maintainer?
- Eval The Eval special page extension.
I patched it up a bit. It's not like anyone other than me has actually ever used it. But sure, I'll take it.
- PageCSS The PageCSS parser hook extension.
I'll take it, not that anyone cares.

I'm pretty sure the problem there is the cite templates, not <ref>.

IIRC Domas was complaining about {{cite}} *templates* and their complexity. Their inefficiency was unrelated to the Cite extension AFAIK.

Thanks, Avar.
