Subject: [Mediawiki-l] "include" mechanism in MW?
To: mediawiki-l(a)Wikimedia.org
Message-ID:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
I am interested in adding mechanically-generated content
(e.g., text, images) to MediaWiki pages, as discussed in
http://www.cfcl.com/~rdm/weblog/archives/001002.html
I think that the cleanest way to do this might be to let the
user put in an "include" request for some specified content.
A program could then note the request and generate a file,
which MW could fold into the page whenever it was displayed.
Problem is, I don't know what provision (if any) MW has for
including files, etc. I've looked over Help:Contents and
the extensions list, but I haven't recognized anything that
seems relevant. Any pointers would be appreciated.
