experience with blog extension

by dzieciou :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

We host description of our research work in form of Wiki, using
MediaWiki. I would like to start a blog inside of our Wiki, not on one
of publicly available blog hosting services, becuase we want to have
more control over the storage of data and uniform access to them
(through MediaWiki).

Can you suggest me any extension to MediaWiki which allows for having a
blog as one of Wiki pages ? What are your experience with existing
extensions ?

By blog I mean a single Wiki page, where:
* Entries are sorted by date of publication
* Under each entry there is a list of comments or a link to the
   separate page with only commented entry and detailed list of
   comments made to it

Thank you for your time,
Maciej

I asked myself that question some time ago. There is this extension:

        http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:My_blog

But it wasn't exactly what I expected. I didn't like the "one user <->
one blog" relationship. I wanted blogs to have their own names, and to
be part of the wiki as a whole, following the wiki philosophy, like
"many users <-> many blogs".

So, I started this extension:

        http://svn.juliano.info/svn/mediawiki/extensions/Blog/trunk/

There are a lot of features missing for a blog, I never had time to
finish it, but it does what I expected:

- Blogs are part of the wiki, not user's pages.

- It follows wiki philosophy as far as possible: any user can post to
any blog, as long as it has edit permissions to the "Blog:" namespace;
if a user makes an inappropriate post, you just move or delete that
post's page; many users may collaborate to a single blog post.

- Blogs (and posts) in different languages are linked through language
interwiki links.

- Wiki categories are user for blog categories also.

If you want to see it in action:

        http://juliano.info/en/Blog:Memory_Leak

Among the features that are currently missing for a basic blog is the
generation of RSS feeds (other than the builtin MediaWiki RSS feeds,
that are not exactly what is expected for a blog).

Feel free to use it if you want. It is open source, so if you (or anyone
here) want to contribute the missing features, it will be highly
appreciated. If there is enough interest in it, I may ask MediaWiki devs
to host it in MW's Subversion repository.

Best regards,
Juliano.

My blog[1] is based on MediaWiki.  It is accomplished through page
transclusion and bulit on two extensions I created explicitly for this
purpose: WikiArticleFeeds[2] and ArticleComments[3].

It's by no means polished - but it does the job well enough for me.

Jim,

Ok. Thanks. I like your extension ArticleComments for its simplicity.

I have a question related to it. How can I put talks page (already made
comments) on the same page, under the article which is commented ?

Similary as you've done at

http://jimbojw.com/wiki/index.php?title=ArticleComments_Test_Page

Best,
Maciej

In the article page, put {{:Talk:{{PAGENAME}}. That tells MediaWiki to
"transclude" the talk page into this page.

Make sure that in the Talk page you put <noinclude></noinclude> around
anything you don't want to show in the main article.

Actually, you should probably be using {{ :{{TALKPAGENAME}} }} so that
it works correctly in things other than the main namespace as well.
