Hi Spencer,

Thanks for the quick reply. Iiuc, what you are describing is the ability to 
document R code in MediaWiki pages with R specific syntax highlighting. This is 
provided by MediWiki's "SyntaxHighlight" extension, which provides that 
language specific syntax highlighting for many different programing languages, 
including R.

What I'm looking for, and info on anything people might still be using to do 
what the MediaWiki R Extension did way back when it was available. 
Specifically, it actually processed R code when the page is saved and delivered 
a limited type of output (presumably a single plot output) back to the wiki for 
viewing.

/Rich

Hi, Rich:


I have NOT used that, but I have R Markdown code in appendices to article on 
Wikiversity under "Category:R Markdown vignettes".[1] In addition to ending 
with "[[Category:R Markdown vignettes]]", I set all code from vignettes between 
"<syntaxhighlight lang="text">" and "</syntaxhighlight>".


I do not know if this is of interest to you or anyone else.


Best Wishes, Spencer Graves


p.s. I am actively developing "MaddisonData" and "WID" packages on GitHub,[2] 
which facilitate analysis of data from the Maddison Data Project and the World 
Inequality Database. I am NOT and economist and could use collaborators who 
could help get articles using these packages published in appropriate refereed 
academic journals, in exchange for joint authorship, of course.

I'm especially interested in collaborators for "MaddisonData":
