Created attachment 6245 [details] An example of clean URL configurations in Drupal. MediaWiki could have something similar to that. I would like MediaWiki to include an "index.php eliminator" (i.e. one that replaces http://<wiki-location>/w/index.php/<article> with http://<wiki-location>/wiki/<article>). Drupal has one that eliminates the "?q=" from the url.
You can already change $wgArticlePath with the Configure extension (I think), but you'd still need to add an Alias or RewriteRule, which is something MediaWiki cannot do. Maybe Configure could be tweaked to make switching between a pretty and a non-pretty $wgArticlePath easier, but I don't think any more can be done.
Oops, didn't mean to close the bug.

Throwing this to Configure extension, probably a better place for it to be implemented.
