Bug ID: 48036
Summary: Add option for all visitors to toggle Math modes
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master

OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal

Peter Krautzberger of the MathJax team suggested a way for all visitors
(included anonymous ones) to enable or disable MathJax. He said:
"I believe this has some advantages.
* All users can get better math rendering but are not forced to have it
* Wikipedia would become accessible to all math-capable screen readers
(I've heard complaints that user registration is not not very accessible).
* Users get to vote with their feet -- usage data could indicate if MathJax
rendering quality is worth it."
This could be a intermediate step, exploring whether it makes sense to enable
it by default (bug 36496).
See http://news.gmane.org/gmane.science.linguistics.wikipedia.technical/ for
the full post.
However, there are some issues we'd probably want to resolve first, including
i18n (bug 35038).
I also don't think the minified files in the source tree are ideal (some of
which overlap), but apparently it's because MathJax has its own loading system
that clashes with ResourceLoader.
