ParserFunctions allows for more versatile wiki templates, amongst other
functionality, and is shipped with MediaWiki since version 1.18. [1]
Included string functionality remains disabled, as is done on wikimedia
projects. [2]

Related bug report: FS#46699 [1]
Enabling userscripts allows the users to use many existing scripts from
Wikipedia [2], which can greatly improve the experience of reading,
editing and maintaining the wiki. It will also allow us to make some
ArchWiki-specific scripts like Wiki Monkey [3] more portable (currently
it depends on browser extensions like Greasemonkey to work).
Enabling user-stylesheets lets the users customize the default Arch skin
on the wiki according to their preference, and more importantly, it
makes it easier for users to test modifications and prepare patches for
the main skin. This is probably the main blocker of FS#46697 [4].

There is little wrong in letting the users configure these settings, but
setting "Mark all edits as minor by default" to true or "Prompt me when
entering a blank edit summary" to false has bad impact on the quality of
the wiki edits, because such users tend to ignore the fundamental rules
[1] and there is nothing to remind it to them. Disabling these user
preferences and forcing the default values according to this patch will
decrease the effort of the Maintenance Team spent on guiding the editors
and also generally increase the quality of user contributions.
This will solve FS#46190 [2].

The default value for the main namespace is `false`, because Wikipedia
does not use subpages for categorization anymore. That is not the case
on ArchWiki, so there is no reason why the main namespace should behave
differently. The most visible changes are relative links using the
normal double square brackets notation and automatic breadcrumb links
appearing at the top of the subpage, linking to each parent page that
exists.
See [1] for discussion and [2] for upstream documentation of this
setting. Also see the related FS#39668 [3], which will be solved by this
patch.

The instructions for interlanguage links were generalized to include all
interwiki links as a preparation for merging the
maintenance/arch-interwiki.sql script. The API queries were improved to
use the limit=max shortcut, for continuation of queries it is better to
just link to upstream because the previously described method is being
deprecated.
|
|
The apropos search does not work, but searching by names of the manual
might still be useful.
|
|
|
|
The entries have been separated into other block in the SQL script for
readability, this does not matter with respect to the database. Old
entries were removed or replaced with the new site's URL and more
meaningful prefix. There are also couple of convenient aliases for the
most frequently used entries.
|
|
The acronymfinder.com site is a search engine, exact search is
unsupported due to many ambiguities, so it cannot be used as
disambiguation of the acronym, which makes it useless for use in the
interwiki map.
|

These sites are not relevant to ArchWiki as a documentation resource for
a Linux distribution.
lugkr Linux User Group Krefeld
meatball a "discussion forum" for the MeatBall community
pythoninfo tutorials and documentation for the Python language
shoutwiki a wiki hosting service
squeak an IDE for the smalltalk language
twiki about its own product (like mediawiki.org)
unreal a game engine
usemod about its own product (like mediawiki.org)

The interwiki map is intended to simplify frequent linking to the same
sites, but I doubt there will be need to link to these sites from
ArchWiki. An annotated list of the target audience for the removed sites
is presented for reference:
advogato community blogging site
c2find "content creation wiki"
dictionary a dictionary...
docbook XML/SGML vocabulary about hardware and software
(last change in 2013, vastly incomplete)
dwjwiki about a specific person
elibre universal free encyclopedia in Spanish
foxwiki no idea...
gej Esperanto in Deutschland
hammondwiki about the Hammond organ (a musical instrument)
hrwiki Homestar Runner Wiki, about a cartoon
imdb movies database
jargonfile subset of metawiki
memoryalpha Star Trek
metawiki a search engine "with sauce"
oeis the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences
ppr same as c2find
senseislibrary about the game of Go
sourcewatch corporate campaigns
tejo no idea...
tmbw for the fans of They Might Be Giants
tmnet off-topic, last change around 2006
theopedia an encyclopedia of Biblical Christianity
uea wiki of the Universal Esperanto Association
uncyclopedia useless, ArchWiki is a serious resource
webseitzwiki no idea...
wiki same as c2find
wikif1 about motorsport
wikihow off-topic, too general
wikinfo universal open content reference resource, but
unlike Wikipedia, its articles are subjective
|
|
|
|
Fixed the URL and simplified the prefix (of course it is a wiki...)
|
|
These interwiki prefixes have never worked properly, because spaces are
not supported in interwiki links -- they are always replaced with an
underscore (same for `%20`) so anything longer than one word fails. I
have no idea why they have been considered in the default interwiki map.
|
|
The interwiki table is cleared first and then the entries are inserted.
For now the entries duplicate the maintenance/interwiki.sql script, the
map will be revised in the following commits.
