Are there any experts on MediaWiki here?

 

I have some non-technical/conceptual question if someone with a lot of MediaWiki experience would be willing to answer them?

 

Thank you all in advance!

Why don't you ask and then we'll see if we can answer?

Hello, I've been trying to investigate a solution to a project I've been working on: http://www.ourmed.org. Our goal is to create a Medically-oriented Wiki with the following features:

 

-WYSIWYG editing (fully compatible with Wiki syntax as utilized on Wikipedia, specifically the medicine portal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Medicine)

-Editor (back-end) article rating system

-User article rating system

-Semantic MW Data sorting features (IE Search population for countries (wikipedia), data values on right hand side should be linked and data should be able to be manipulated on separate page)

 

To give you a bit of background on the project: Non-profit 501c3, open-content, open-source, very similar to Wikipedia model.

 

Background on myself (for those who care): I used to work for Wikipedia (Wikimedia Foundation) as the Head of the Business Development and am now trying to get this medical project up and running. If anyone is interested in helping out with this project, please contact me at vishal.patel@ourmed.org.

 

 

 

Cheers,
