Syntax Highlighter
When will the GeSHi SyntaxHighlighter be added. It was requested months ago and nothings going on with it!--אורי הולנדר(שיחה) 13:22, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Categorytree + show/hide
By default seems that all mediawiki projects use the standard list categories in 3 columns style. It's kinda bad when the pages have long names, which are much better to read in a single line.

Found a solution with categorytree + show n hide. With categorytree I can list all pages from a certain category. What I did was nest categorytree in show/hide, then the categorytree can stay expanded, while the show/hide keeps it collapsed and can display whatever long title is needed. Maybe it's ligther than dynamic list pages. Exerciciosresolvidos 16:29, September 6, 2009 (UTC)

I requested Variables but they said is not possible, so why this extension is here ? Dianakc (talk) 02:24, May 15, 2015 (UTC)

Requesting Extensions
The section, how to request an extension, does not actually tell you how to do do this. I think you have to put in a request to someone but I don't know who, yet.

Poll extensions missing listing
According to Special:Version on Starter wiki, there are two poll tag extensions not in help: Polldaddy Tag Extension and PollSnack Tag Extension. Some help pages for those extensions would be nice too. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 24 Jul 2017 12:39 PM Pacific

These extensions are terrible
These extensions are terrible. Why can't we just have the ones on mediawiki.org instead? Those are much better. Why can't we have AdminLinks rather than Admin Dashboard? We don't need the achievements extension - besides, it promotes vandalism. When I go to Special:Version on my wiki, almost all extensions are by "Wikia". FANDOM staff don't even install the extensions on mediawiki.org that aren't on Help:Extensions under request, which is a reason why I dislike them. Joey P. (Talk) 05:08, July 22, 2018 (UTC)
