Re: [Wikitech-l] Works on annotations
Hi Mathieu, hi James,
There is this GsoC proposal that plans to explore the integration of an
annotation system in Mediawiki:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Rjain/Proposal-Prototyping-inline-comments
The idea is to see how well and in which ways the OKFN Annotator could be
deployed:
http://okfnlabs.org/annotator/
If successful, it would be very useful for cases like the one you are
suggesting. It could be used to cite texts in Wikisource in a easier way
than now.

Sorry, just saw this; we have some vague plans to add an out-of-page
commenting tool to VisualEditor in the longer term, along the lines of
how Google Docs handles things, possibly using the Flow system if
that's appropriate, but these are not solid and certainly are not
planned for us to work on them in the near future. :-)
There's also the question of how to handle HTML comments (which are
sometimes used for editor-facing annotations) and whether this
replaces them or would sit alongside them.
Such a tool would also interact with the real-time collaboration and
chat work that we're planning to do next fiscal year (so, from July
2013 onwards), so it's worth properly discussing with interested
parties.
