Description Platonides 2009-10-25 14:28:03 UTC
It is sometimes desirable to include wiki markup directly into the sidebar, as reported on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Sidebar#Allow_wiki_markup_.28PHP.29
MediaWiki should allow it without needing to change the code.

Proposal

Backwards compatible sidebar syntax expansion to allow wikitext for entries with the form {{text}}, taken from MediaWiki:text.
The parser usage is probably not correct, but shouldn't need half dozen lines, either.
Comment 2 Siebrand Mazeland 2010-01-09 18:57:54 UTC
Patch has conflicts on trunk. Please submit an updated patch.

Updated patch

Patch updated to trunk. What do you think, Siebrand?
Comment 4 Platonides 2010-05-27 16:58:07 UTC
Applied in r66974.
Comment 5 Brion Vibber 2010-10-16 23:26:46 UTC
This syntax seems pretty odd; {{text}} would seem to indicate template expansion of Template:Text, whereas this sounds a little more like it would look like {{int:text}}?
