Bug #: 38537
Summary: Add "external links" section to MediaWiki's info
action
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
MediaWiki's info action should have a customizable "external links" section
(blank by default, I guess) where users can add links to outside services,
preferably with the ability to pass the page title in those links.
For example, with ?title=Barack_Obama&action=info, you might have an external
links section that includes:
* http://example.com/page_view_stats/enwiki/Barack_Obama
* http://example.com/wikiblame/enwiki/Barack_Obama
This can be implemented with $1 variables that can be substituted in a
MediaWiki message or perhaps with magic words such as {{PAGENAME}} or
{{FULLPAGENAMEE}} or whatever. I'm not sure if magic words currently work with
?action=info.
Adding an external links section would allow us to move certain links to
external services (such as "number of watchers") from ?action=history to
?action=info, where the links are much more logically suited.
