[Mediawiki-l] Comments sought: Fields in MediaWiki articles

[Gordon Mohr]

Hello,

I've placed a proposal for a flexible syntax for declaring and
using fields in MediaWiki articles on the meta-wiki at:

   http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Flexible_Fields_for_MediaWiki

I'd appreciate comments/improvements, especially with regard to:

  * how the syntax would interact with pre-existing variable
    and template behavior
  * how support could be implemented in the database (a topic
    currently not addressed at all by the proposal).

Thanks,

- Gordon @ Bitzi
