Our small team of 3-4 developers uses a wiki for documentation and collaboration. I'm trying to put together a list of some solid extensions which would help make it better. We are using MediaWiki, but if you know of a good extension/plug-in for another platform I'd like to hear about that too. Thanks.

Here is my list so far:

  • Geshi for syntax highlighting.
  • FCKeditor
  • TagAsCategory

Promising Extensions that don't work w/ MediaWiki 1.15.0

  • CategoryEditor
  • IssueTracker

Two things come to mind:

  • Bug tracking tool integration
  • SCM tool integration

For MediaWiki there are already

Bugzilla integration:

SVN integration:

The whole list of extensions is here

Thanks, I have seen the list before, its just too many things to wade through though. Also, seems like whenever I find something that might be useful, its broken :(

Well, I think that a good starting point would be to check what we use at mediawiki.org, because this is a Development Wiki :)

My first choice would be CodeReview of course. It's not pretty, but it's very useful. See how we use it: it allows to integrate a SVN into the wiki, to add comments on code, tag commits, and put statuses on it. At MediaWiki, we use new/verified/ok chain, adding fixme/reverted/resolved/deferred when things go wrong; but you're free to use your own statuses here.

We are using VSTS for our source control.
