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