There's a very rough draft diagram of MediaWiki

Oooh, that would look great on the wall of my office. :)
Very high chance of errors / omissions / stuff-ups, so
comments and
corrections and suggestions welcome.
Quick questions:
* Can the validate table be safely deleted? (I'm assuming it's cruft left over
after schema updates)
Yes, kill it. :)
* Can the ipblocks_old table be safely deleted?
(I'm assuming it's cruft left over after schema updates)
Yep.
* A one line description of the trackbacks table?
(e.g. "Stores trackbacks from external sites which link to the wiki")
Yeah, sounds about right. ;)
It's an optional feature, not sure how great it is; disabled by default.
I think it should be made an extension. :D
You might also link the langlinks table to interwiki... I don't think
they're ever joined, currently, but it might make sense. Either way.
