Gerrit ETA
edit@Thomas-topway-it: It's been almost 6 weeks, has "The extension will be uploaded on Gerrit soon" happened yet and if not can you give an ETA? * Pppery * it has begun 20:52, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Pppery you are right. The fact is that it depended on an upgrade of PageProperties, however I have some code for the use with the current version of PageProperties, so given your follow-up I will publish the existing code in this week. Then I will update it at a later time Thomas-topway-it (talk) 07:57, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Pppery done! Thomas-topway-it (talk) 07:21, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
"The first 'wiki-app' ever"
editI don't know your exact definition of "wiki-app", but I would think an extension like SemanticActions also fits the description - it is (or was) a task manager application built on SMW, Page Forms, etc. For that matter, maybe some of the Page Exchange packages count as well, since they provide an application based around existing tools, even if they're not extensions themselves?

- hello Yaron, I was thinking indeed to Extension:Page Exchange as a way to import the articles provided by the extension.
- Regarding the statement "first wiki-app ever" I felt that it could have been controversial, so I have specified "CRUD operations and navigation with query parameters" as a way to (possibly) narrow a bit the definition.
- However you are right that the extension https://github.com/enterprisemediawiki/SemanticActions/ fits the idea of wiki-app as well (together with similar "wiki-apps", like for instance EiKolo) therefore I plan to reword that paragraph mentioning the background as well. (that has also to do with ContactManager since the first version was indeed based on Semantic Mediawiki, but there were some limitations related to the required complexity of forms that I have not been able to overcome).
