This page is for tracking ideas related to improving TransitWiki's technical infrastructure: features and services. For content ideas, see Content Ideas.

Requested

  1. Make TransitWiki namespace searchable. see MediaWiki manual 20:06, 18 October 2016 (MDT)
  2. Create system of templates for highlighting, flagging, and otherwise marking pages. For example: templates would be useful to identify in-progress pages, out-of-date content, content that violates TransitWiki policies, or asking specific questions. Appropedia provides an excellent example of a template system in use. I have attempted to begin and use a template system on TransitWiki (Category:Templates). --Aaronantrim (talk) 00:07, 15 December 2015 (MST)
  3. Change URL structure for TransitWiki articles so the URLs are shorter and more readable. e.g. http://www.appropedia.org/General_Transit_Feed_Specification instead of http://www.transitwiki.org/TransitWiki/index.php?title=General_Transit_Feed_Specification 13:18, 23 January 2016 (MST)
  4. Add section for interwiki links. e.g. there are several transportation wikis. here is one: http://tfresource.org Aaronantrim (talk) 20:06, 18 October 2016 (MDT)
  5. Create TransitWiki tasks category, similar to Appropedia tasks Aaronantrim (talk) 10:10, 19 October 2016 (MDT)
  6. Add the ImageMap extension that would allow linking of areas of the Transit Stack image to relevant pages

Completed

  1. Enable the User email feature (e.g. Special:EmailUser/Bertrand ) --Aaronantrim (talk) 08:50, 3 May 2016 (MDT) completed by Juan Matute, TransitWiki Manager (talk) 15:31, 21 October 2016 (MDT)
  2. Add contribution credits feature on pages Aaronantrim (talk) 10:10, 19 October 2016 (MDT) partially completed by Juan Matute, TransitWiki Manager (talk) 15:31, 21 October 2016 (MDT)
  3. I added a stub Guide for Contributors page that needs more work. A primary purpose was to add guidelines for vendors. --Aaronantrim (talk) 18:41, 13 November 2016 (MST)
  4. Install Parser Functions Extension https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ParserFunctions to allow for conditional parser functions that offer adaptable templates for infoboxes. [[User:Leeor|Leeor] 19:18, 11 January 2017 (PST) completed by Juan Matute, TransitWiki Manager (talk) 14:25, 12 January 2017 (MST)
  5. Consider adding functionality for Semantic MediaWiki Aaronantrim (talk) 10:10, 19 October 2016 (MDT)
