Note that this will interfere with any kind of HTML caching, such as Squid or file cache, and with the parser cache as well. It won't work correctly in most well-configured MediaWiki installs unless you make sure to fragment the parser cache appropriately, at a minimum. > The patch is made on the 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu1 mediawiki package (from Ubuntu > 9.04), and only modifies Monobook.php and Modern.php.

Well, that's okay for a first stab at the implementation, if we want to include this at all (hard to say without seeing the patch). Not your fault our skin system is a complete mess. There are likely to be some merge conflicts, though -- 1.13 is very old. It's best to submit patches based on trunk. > Is there a better way to make MathML work in MW?

Under "Math" in preferences on Wikipedia, there's already a "MathML if possible (experimental)" option. I'm not sure if it actually does anything, though . . . if not, I guess it should be removed. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
