As a bug and feature tracking tool we will use [http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira Jira]. This tool supports external references called trackbacks (specification at: http://www.movabletype.org/docs/mttrackback.html). Does Wikimedia support this functionality? In Jira trackbacks are used as described at: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/v3.0/trackback.html?clicked=jirahelp.
MediaWiki doesn't support trackback support actually. It might be an interesting feature :o) Switching to enhancement.
implemented in 1.5.
Trackback support removed in r104051 (1.19alpha). Is this a feature that would be still be desired in an extension?
