Description Mark James 2008-09-01 16:37:35 UTC
Add a mode that allows a hierarchical pair of wiki streams to be displayed side-by-side.

This mode can be used for interactive development and browsing of cases for and against particular proposals, in the manner of the cases displayed on makethecase.net.

I believe this would be a great democratic tool, as argued here: http://makethecase.net/why.html .

Refiling as extension request.  This doesn't belong in core software, it's not useful to most wikis.
Comment 2 Mark James 2008-09-15 18:06:29 UTC
Implemented in the Debate extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Debate
