Hmm, that looks interesting, thanks for the pointer. I'd need to automatically generate the sections around diff areas, and then talk to the extension from php, I think. I'll look at the source to see how they deal with the format nesting and whatnot.

Hi, is there an existing way (or an extension) to generate a short well-formatted snipped around changes on a wiki page, or even just to take the top part of a page cleanly, kind of like "Today's featured article" does on wikipedia? That looks like it's edited by hand from the original article, which is understandable for its placement on the front page, but is there a way to do an automated version of that sort of thing without a human in the loop?
Would this help: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Labeled_Section_Transclusion
