::::A disadvantage is that it could get pretty complex if we want to save a history of all the changes made to that data. We already have a system in place that saves old revisions of pages. This is pretty much the conondrum any time it's proposed to store more data in a wiki (see, e.g., [https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59665 bug 59665]). Sometimes you can do a mix of both; e.g. [[mw:Extension:BedellPenDragon]] enables the saving of a new revision to change data in the [[mw:Manual:Page_props table|page props table]].

Before going down the Scribunto route, you guys need to get [[User:DennouNeko]] to weigh in on this conversation (for his Lua experience). And I would specifically ask what implications this would have on server loading. Don't forget that WikiIndex is basically personally funded by [[RayKing]] – whereas many of the MediaWiki extensions are designed for mega-bucks server infrastructure of Wikimedia Foundation and/or Wikia. | Before going down the Scribunto route, you guys need to get [[User:DennouNeko]] to weigh in on this conversation (for his Lua experience).
