Welcome to the MediaWiki extension matrix. This listing is updated each night by a bot based on the entries in Category:Extensions. You have full control over the style and content of this page by editing Template:ExtensionMatrixHeader and Template:ExtensionMatrix. The source code for this bot is available at User:Alterego/ExtensionMatrix/Source code. Don't edit the source code of this page directly - it will be overwritten. Instead edit the source code of the extension page.

Name Description MediaWiki Version Updated Page Edited Talk Page Edited Created Author
UniversalSuggester23 Jun 2011 Adds an extra icon to the edit form bar which simplifies the insertion of markup for page (and sections) links, categories, templates, images and media files. The user starts typing in the input box, the database is queried in the background and a list of matches is returned. The main difference to other link/category/... suggesters is the possibility to easily switch between different suggesters. Therefore only this extension is necessary to query multiple types of MediaWiki document types. 1.13 23 Jun 2011 1 Oct 2013 4 Oct 2012 24 Jun 2011 Thomas Klein
