Jeff's Wishlist

This is a wishlist from an older version --- some of this stuff has already been done, other stuff is dealt with elsewhere... some of it's novel, hopefully. ;)

  1. Full support for StructuredText (standard?) -- will come, I still owe Richard the adaption of his code

  2. true raw HTML (cf. HelpOnProcessingInstructions) -- if some1 gives me a reliable HTML filtering module (remove <script>, <object> and the like), no problem

    • - I spent a while searching for a good piece of code to do this and found this on sourceforge. I can't vouch for it's reliability but it looks like it'll do what's needed (and more which might need to be ripped out?). -- AdamShand

  3. Extend the ToC macro so that a ToC for one page can be embedded in another
  4. Transclusion would be nice, after all.
  5. edit code for Wiki implementation through the Wiki ;) -- use XSLT

  6. number clicks total, number clicks since last rev reported per-page
  7. WhoHasReadThis - read history per-page

  8. MyFavoritePages - an automatic personal most-visited list, for easier nav to common stuff

  9. embeddable diagram tools, [ATTACH]

  10. smart dynamic "macros" such as "list of 5 most recent changes like xxx..."
  11. More in-site administration / config: WikiDashboard?

  12. Visual Wiki! Check out VisualizeTheWiki. The mind boggles.

  13. More filters / views...
  14. Filters / sorts on RecentChanges:

    • there are four columns: Diff, WikiWord, EditTime, and Editor

    • should be able to sort by each...
    • size of Diff delta
    • alpha by WikiWord (title)

    • sort by time (default, the way it works now)
  15. More robust "RecentChanges" functionality:

    • NewPages

    • ChangedPages

    • MyRecentChanges

    • MyNewPages

    • MyChangedPages

  16. Blog-like way to post a link to a personal links page via a bookmark.
  17. Bookmark / feed page.
  18. Personal pages / views.
  19. Transitive search (i.e., content / history search).
  20. Eventually: dynamic history!
  21. Easy upload of real docs via WebDAV, interaction -w- external docs!!!
  22. Grammar checker? -- unlikely

-- JeffBone, <jbone AT jump.net>

Take this with a grain of salt: if you don't even take the time to weed out the done points, why should I care to implement the rest? And there is some pretty heavy stuff in there, even if it might not look like that. A good third is too sketchy to even get what you mean. -- JürgenHermann

This was more of a braindump than a series of requests, Jürgen. Given cycles, I'll be happy to come back and try to clarify and cleanup; but in the meantime, rather than keeping this locked in our Wiki, I thought I'd dump it up here. That way, if there's anything of value in it, somebody else can benefit. But to your question, you shouldn't care to implement anybody's requests, unless it just tickles your fancy. If any of the above does that, great, otherwise, that's fine too. :) -- JeffBone
