Thanks very much for your help. The chunk of wiki text is actually over
several lines - is this solution only for inserting single lines?

It may be hard without any programming knowledge...
The extra buttons at wikipedia are controlled by javascript in the
page Mediawiki:Common.js. I've made this a bit easier to read on our
wiki:
http://ecoliwiki.net/colipedia/index.php/
MediaWiki:Common.js#Extra_toolbar_options
What you need to do is define another button handler for your desired
text.
mwCustomEditButtons[mwCustomEditButtons.length] = {
"imageFile": "url of the button image",
"speedTip": "Custom text",
"tagOpen": "",
"tagClose": "",
"sampleText": "insert custom text here"};
I think that will work. Haven't tried it, though.

Hi
I'd like users of my wiki (
www.chainsofreason.org) to be able to add a
particular chunk of wikitext to a page by simply clicking on a
button in the
edit page toolbar, but have been unable to find a suitable
extension. Is
there some relatively easy way to achieve this? I don't have any
programming
knowledge.
