https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50329 Quim Gil changed: What|Removed |Added CC||gpaum...@wikimedia.org --- Comment #1 from Quim Gil --- What would this central repository need, apart from deciding where will it be? I mean, mediawiki.org only misses a category for Lua based templates and another one for Scribunto modules (very easy) and just a bit of love putting together the documentation and support channels. The rest (e.g. announcing new templates, review processes...) will come or not based on the community activity. All this is kind of happening at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Lua but that is really not the right place, so other Wikimedia projects are starting their own Lua corners, and just wait when MediaWiki 3rd party admins start adding to the mix. We could just tell all these people that mediawiki.org is the right place, their commons place, just like it is for extensions, and the rest would come. PS: I know it's not that simple, but it's not that complicated either. The more time we let this pass the more difficult it will be to undo changes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50329 --- Comment #2 from Brad Jorsch --- (In reply to comment #1) > What would this central repository need, apart from deciding where will it > be? Support in software so that it would work something like Commons does for media. The idea is that the code would exist in one place and be available to all without it having to be copied and pasted to each one. Note that Commons itself will not be the place for this; the Commons community doesn't want it, and various others wouldn't want it there either. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Maybe MediaWiki.org? Meta? If we are looking at the grand scheme of things, I would really like it if there were a 'special' place for this, and all modules in this 'special' space would be injected in the mw table. This way, when such modules turn out to be much used and generally useful, they could possibly in time be 'adopted' into the Scribunto core mw tables without breaking existing usage. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

You're aware of the interwiki transclusion GSoC project and its outcome? You also seem to have not researched current requests for comment (linked in comment 5) before filing this bug. Large, abstract, and technically complex projects such as implementing a central code repository are terrible for inexperienced users, in my opinion.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50329 --- Comment #18 from Rical --- The modules to centralize must speak any language. To support this evolution, the Module:ControlArgs can: * adapt any calling module for international use i18n in argument names, error messages, wikitext and categories. * provide to many small wikis the same modules as the main wikis, only by adding translations tables in the sub modules .../I18N. * help users, when he/she edit any page, by a documentation panel, like Mediawiki do this for modules. See Bug 51660. * help administrators to support wikis in other languages, by translating error messages. See Bug 66051.
