Extra Features

WikiBot

The user:wikibot makes Special:Contributions/Wikibot edits the wiki automatically, making simple cleanups and doing link verification. It's running based of the Pywikibot software.

Lucene Search

The default search in mediawiki does exact matching, but doesn't to lexicographical searches. We have Lucene Search installed, along with indexing daemons that run hourly on the mediawiki server.

Visual Editor

The Visual Editor Is a feature Media Wiki has been working on for a while, but still isn't perfect. Most notably it breaks pretty hard on Equipment Pages.

We run a parsoid daemon in order to process mediawiki content into a form the Visual Editor can work with.

Technical

The wiki is running MediaWiki's wiki software, the same as WikiPedia, along with some 3rd party extensions.
