What is it?

This wiki is powered by MediaWiki. You can see that logo on the bottom right of the screen. This is the framework that spun off from Wikipedia.

Extensions

Base MediaWiki is very feature rich. What I usually add is citation, breadcrumbs and syntax highlighting.

Hidden

Unlisted would probably be a better name, but I implemented a way for pages to not show up in searches. These pages are not inaccessible but can only be accessible with a direct link. To do so, you can create a page with the namespace hidden in front of it. Easiest way to do so is go to your user page and add to your page Hidden:Page_Name replacing Page_Name with the name of your page, and save it.

Code added to the LocalSettings.php was the following:

define("NS_HIDDEN",3000);
define("NS_HIDDEN_TALK",3001);
$wgExtraNamespaces[NS_HIDDEN] = "Hidden";
$wgExtraNamespaces[NS_HIDDEN_TALK] = "Hidden_talk";
$wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault[NS_HIDDEN] = false;
$wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault[NS_HIDDEN] = false;
