--- Comment #28 from Matthew Flaschen <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #19) > Might I be so bold as to suggest such a feature for core, rather than an > extension. The see alsos suggest that. It's definitely possible that this will end up in core at some point. > We should keep detailed discussion there, but we're leaning toward an > extension, because not all wikis are going to want a Draft namespace right > away, necessarily. However, Chad is right that that doesn't necessarily require an extension. The namespace part can be done in wmf-config (that doesn't mean we necessarily will), and core variables can be gated. (In reply to comment #23) > Moving to core is always harder than just developing in core to begin with. > Case in point: Vector extension. You can look at that both ways. On the plus side, it enabled quicker experimentation (both in the code sense and the analytics sense). It successfully resulted in some good functionality that was moved to core. Other stuff was done in core in a significantly different way, after learning lessons from the extension implementation. I think it also kept some rejected functionality out of core. On the downside, there was definitely Vector functionality that should have been moved to core sooner. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
