It doesn't work on 1.16

That's why the extension information says: MediaWiki: 1.15.3. It is incompatible with 1.16, only compatible with 1.15.3 - TBloemink 20:14, 15 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Extension does work on 1.16, look at the example, it's under 1.16, I tried on 1.15.3, it doesn't work as well, the developer probably made an error in the tag or something else.

It works edit

It still works (I tested it with MediaWiki 1.20.4). The possible problem is, however, the regexp for replacing links. For example, if your installation of MediaWiki is accessed via eg. http://localhost/~username/w/index.php/Article_name then you should replace the line in regexp for preg_replace_callback:

(\"\/index\.php\?title\=)       # start of link

with

(\"\/~username\/w\/index\.php\?title\=)       # start of link

I would also recommend adding "s" after "http" in URL in line

return '"http://'.$this->lang.'.wikipedia.org/wiki/'.$s.'" title="'.$tt.' (Wikipedia)"';

Hope that helps. BartłomiejB (talk) 20:39, 28 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
