Nice! This is interesting. Back at the Switzerland hackathon Dan Andrescu knocked up a Visualisation namespace and I guess this is based on that?
I'm concerned by the use of the graph tag however, and I'm not sure we should be promoting its usage. Wikitext is already rather complicated and every template or bunch of data that gets added makes it harder for non-technical people to edit. Rather than having a graph tag containing data which will not make sense to technical users could we imagine something is there any plan to support something like <graph title="Visualisation:Stock markets"></graph>? Separating this into another namespace also allows us to create useful graph editors. Also how does this fit into https://github.com/jdlrobson/WikiMaps? It would be great to have a one fit all generic extension that handles all these use cases. A generic Visualisation namespace would be awesome. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Yuri Astrakhan <[email protected]> Date: Fri, Aug 15, 2014 at 11:41 AM Subject: [Wikitech-l] Graphs demo To: Wikimedia developers <[email protected]> Graph extension <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Graph> is now live on http://graphtest.wmflabs.org/wiki/Main_Page Hopefully the main page will stay somewhat presentable :) _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
