Hello, community members. Alex95, a tech support member of the wiki, recently suggested technical ideas for the wiki:
- The wiki is currently at version 1.31. Would you guys like it updated to 1.33 or 1.34?
- Trello card system for keeping track of what needs done (it will be grouped with our own list).
- Templates being replaced with Lua coding: https://www.lua.org/.
- Help:Contents page or something similar. (He stated that this one is required.)
- Discord notifications, if you have a Discord to send them to.
- Echo extension, for notifications like your edit being undone, sending thanks, etc.: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Echo (for example, this system exists on Inkipedia).
- Google Rich Cards (those box results that show in Google when you search for something)
