Do you think there's a chance it could be installed on this wiki? Unless there's already something similar available that I don't know of yet? --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 05:05, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

== Extensions ==

Hi Tyler! I'd like to request a few extensions:

* [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:Purge|Extension:Purge]]. This one is useful when you've working on a template or a Lua module and test your changes on some page. Using a purge button instead of making a null edit saves both clicks and page load time.

* [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:TemplateStyles|Extension:TemplateStyles]]. This one is useful when you need some custom CSS rules which can't be put into <code>style="..."</code> but aren't important enough to go into the global [[MediaWiki:Common.css]].

* [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:Gadgets|Extension:Gadgets]]. This one is useful for organising JS things like my WIP [[User:Plumtree/Sound|in-browser sound generation project]].

* [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:Semantic MediaWiki|Extension:Semantic MediaWiki]]. This one is a powerful upgrade of the category system. With SMW, you can assign properties to pages, query complex conditions based on those properties and categories and output the result in a highly customisable way. But it might be a bit more tricky to install.

* [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:NativeSvgHandler|Extension:NativeSvgHandler]]. This one serves SVGs as SVGs without server-side rendering into PNGs with horrible resolution.

Additionally, most interval pages link to [[xen-calc]] and ConfirmEdit triggers when such a link is added by a template. Could you [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:ConfirmEdit#URL_and_IP_whitelists|add it to exceptions]] or [[Special:Interwiki|configure an interwiki]]?

== Extensions (2024) ==

I'd like to request the tabber extension to be added: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TabberNeue

Such an extension would allow for multiple sections' worth of similar information to be condensed into a single section. More to the point, pages such as this ([[5L 2s]]) have multiple tuning subsections that can be further condensed into one section, thus saving space and better organizing page information. (For an outside example, consider this RS Wiki page and its use of the tabber extension: https://runescape.wiki/w/Arch-Glacor/Strategies)

Thank you for your consideration.

== Google ranking ==

It seems like in the past few weeks, the wiki has not been showing up in revelant Google searches. Other search engines seem unaffected.

It's unclear what has caused this, but if I had to guess, we are likely being flagged by some automatic system on their end.

I'm not sure what the proper course of action is, since Google's algorithms are (intentionally) opaque.

However, there are some tools in the [https://search.google.com/search-console/welcome|Google Search Console] that may reveal issues.

To use these tools you need to prove you are the domain owner though, so I think you are the only one who can access them.

It would be nice to know if there are some actions we can take improve the situation.
