hard code image to wiki_url?
This is great Ted!! Can it be done for the image?
- You're talking about the image linking to the wiki url instead of to the wikiindex image page? That doesn't seem to be within the control of the template, but rather a mediawiki feature, hard-coded under the hood somewhere. John would be your man on this one, I'm afraid.

Parameters
How about an ontolgy of this metadata - expressed in RDF it could be harvested from the wikis so people don't always have to update the pages at WikiIndex?
- wiki_logo
- URL of an image
- wiki_URL
- URL
- wiki_recentchanges_URL
- URL
- wiki_wikinode_URL
- URL
- wiki_status
- tag (Category:Wiki Status) - selected set
- wiki_language
- tag/ISO-code (Category:Wiki Language) - selected set
- wiki_editmode
- tag (Category:Wiki Edit Mode) - selected set
- wiki_engine
- tag (Category:Wiki Engine) - relatively open set
- wiki_maintopic
- tag (Category:Wiki Topic) - open
In MediaWiki it could be expored this way but also RDFa is possible. -- Nichtich 09:31, 22 August 2006 (EDT)
link to about instead of RC?
...wouldn't a link to an about page and an author page be WAY more handier than a recent changes? --Smiddle 18:41, 26 August 2006 (EDT)
actually no, a link to RecentChanges shows someone immediately what is happening at the wiki. MarkDilley
boilerplate
Hi Smiddle. Great idea to have the boilerplate info closer at hand when looking at this template. I linked to our actual boilerplate as an alternative to what you did so that way things will always be up to date (no duplication that can become unsynchronized).
