Requests for admins

I'd like to request that several extensions are installed:

Several other extensions that came up on #swc-holocron:

<Xanyarr> http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EasyTimeline - could be useful as well with all that historic research going on ;)
<@Veynom> and another one I want as well: rating http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Rating
I think http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Rating is a bit over the top and will disrupt the flow of any article if http://dev.openbig.net/index.php/Dev.openbig.net:Ratings is anything to go by (comments especially can be abused and would need policing)...
I would prefer - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AjaxRatingScript / http://masugadesign.com/the-lab/scripts/unobtrusive-ajax-star-rating-bar/ (some installation help is offered @ http://www.leerwiki.nl/How_to_get_rating_script_work and http://www.leerwiki.nl/How_to_port_Unobtrusive_AJAX_Star_Rating_Bar_to_MediaWiki).
Nothing personal Vey... it just looks much better and would require little to no maintenance... ;) --Xanyarr Chyakk 10:53, 3 April 2011 (GMT)
A reference/citation extension would be very helpful. -- Rupert Havok 22:56, 3 April 2011 (GMT)
Another one I'll need: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ToFeed Horthon Gorthy 04:05, 14 April 2011 (GMT)
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DataTransclusion would also be a good Idea, so we can use data directly from the database --Abyhsen Squeegor 14:06, 7 November 2011 (GMT)

internal wiki name & namespace

I think the two cola (or colons if you will) before the internal wiki name (and after it) {{NS:4}} as defined by $wgMetaNamespace in one of the PHP files cause some issues. For example when you edit a page look just beneath the edit box, you have there "Please note that all contributions to" and then abruptly new line as if tag :: was used to indent a paragraph twice. Same thing in the third line where it not only breaks a line to start new paragraph, but also breaks a link to copyrights page...
Could we remove the cola, or replace them with something else? --Xanyarr Chyakk 10:53, 3 April 2011 (GMT)

actually why don't we just make it simply Holocron, thus making all http://holocron.swcombine.com/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=Holocron&namespace=0 fall into the usual/default namespace of a wiki?
and since we're already talking about namespaces, could we add GNS as a namespace, for all the GNS articles that have been imported lately, and will continue to be imported... --Xanyarr Chyakk 11:57, 3 April 2011 (GMT)

Races

Why don't we put all Race information's into the category for the race and redirect from the race pages to the categories ? --Abyhsen Squeegor 10:53, 7 November 2011 (GMT)

What about linking all Rules page about ships, races, items... to the corresponding Holocron page (if it exist) for additional information ? It could be really easy to do code wise (1-2 lines of code). Would yo ulike this ? Veynom 17:27, 6 February 2012 (GMT)
Yes, we would :P Jake Azzameen 18:34, 6 February 2012 (GMT)
I second that! :P Also, as suggested before, possibly add a link to each faction page!? :) --Qatar Shendo 19:21, 6 February 2012 (GMT)
I third that! Would be a real great addition! --Abyhsen Squeegor 23:16, 6 February 2012 (GMT)
Ok then propose me a nice wording or idea about how you want to see the link. Should it be an icon, a picture link, some text like link "Holocron::YT-1300" ... where to put it exactly, both on the rules page showing the detailed specs of entities and ont he faction page. :) Veynom 08:20, 7 February 2012 (GMT)
I'm for an icon/picture kind of thing, that will probably get more people's attention. Does the Holocron have an icon/something similar? If not it would be awesome if someone could design something like that, that catches the flair of an archive (think Jedi Archives) you connect to for Information and the such. I suppose something like "For more in-depth Information you can proceed to the Holocron page of this Article: link". --Qatar Shendo 20:44, 7 February 2012 (GMT)
