[Bug 23999] Provide method to store API/DB information for interwiki sites
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23999 --- Comment #3 from tisane2...@gmail.com 2010-06-16 13:38:34 UTC --- On second thought, might it not be better to, instead of adding a bunch of fields to the interwiki table, just add a field that contains an integer that is the primary key of another table of data about remote wikis? I see a couple advantages to that: (1) Some wikis will have more than one interwiki prefix, so this avoids the need to have the same remote wiki data in more than one row of the interwiki table. (2) Especially for other interwiki integration purposes besides interwiki transclusion, a primary key is a better unique identifier than a database name because there may be more than one wiki on the same wiki farm using the same database, and prefixing tables using $wgDBprefix.

What we need is to expand the Interwiki class to give us information about other wikis API urls (or potentially DB info, if they're in a farm like Wikimedia). We can store this information in the interwiki table (for most people) and the interwiki cache (for Wikimedia). Configuring this stuff in LocalSettings is a Bad Idea because we already store interwiki data somewhere, so it makes sense to put it where that already is. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.
