Turn RevisionJumper/RevisionSlider into an extension [AOI]
Closed, DuplicatePublic
Actions

Description

Create an extension that adds the functionality of the RevisionJumper gadget to any wiki.

Acceptance criteria:

  • Build an extension that has the same functionality as RevisionJumper
  • The extension should be localizable to any language
  • Improve the text of the select list options (use {{PLURAL}} switch instead of "revision(s)", make "prompt revision(s)" more clear, etc.)

This task does not include deploying the extension to any wikis. That should be filed as separate tasks afterwards based on the local consensus of specific wikis (talk to Community Liaisons to handle this part).

You may want to use https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:BoilerPlate as a starting point (although not sure how up to date that is).

• Fhocutt subscribed.Aug 29 2015, 1:19 AM

Some combination of Extension:BoilerPlate and Extension:Example are reasonably up to date.

Per @DannyH, we're going to hold off on this one for now since he has some ideas for improving the interface, and we'll need to run those ideas by the existing users first before we move forward with any of them.

RevisionSlider looks really neat! Is this the best task for tracking work on this?

Thanks! Yes, and T114172: User test the slider prototype for RevisionJumper [AOI] is the best task for providing (and tracking) feedback.
