I had a quick chat with Rappy, it seems like all that's needed is a few small changes and page moves. The code itself is apparently a very small issue. If you continue what was started in it should be fine.

One issue I can see is the HTML strings you mentioned, and for the time being I think it's acceptable to bite the bullet and create them in JS. Once it's back up, you can start looking at refactoring it into something else, such as moving some of it to a template and simply calling action=parse on the template title (the vast majority of it is acceptable wikitext).

Another issue is requiring callbacks in a couple of places. I'd be inclined to use $.getScript to do this, but mimic the importArticles URL to satisfy and anxiety of reviewers. There's an example in w:c:rs:MediaWiki:Common.js (see the loadAssets function) if you need it.

I think you guys are fairly proficient judging by the mentions of jshint in various places, but let me know if you want any extra help :)
