Need a way to sign name in page that's easier to type than "--\[[Joey]]"
|
|
and that includes the date.
|
|
|
|
What syntax do other wikis use for this? I'm considering "\[[--]]"
|
|
as it has a nice nmemonic.
|
|
|
|
OTOH, adding additional syntax for this would be counter to one of the
|
|
design goals for ikiwiki: keeping as much markup as possible out of the
|
|
wiki and not adding nonstandard markup. And it's not significantly hard to
|
|
type "--\[[Joey]]", and as to the date, we do have page history.
|
|
|
|
I'm also unsure how to possibly implement this. Seems ikiwiki would need to
|
|
expand the rune to the user's name when a page is saved, but that leaves
|
|
out svn commits.
|
|
|

|
Or, just make a sig plugin that expands `~~~~` and `~~~` as wikipedia does.
|
|
The plugin could be an editcontent hook, so it would take effect only when a
|
|
page was edited via the web.
|
|
|
|
I tried implementing this, but to make the link to the user, I wanted to
|
|
use `userlink()`, which generates html. But the right thing to generate is
|
|
really a wikilink. Except for openid, when the best thing to generate is a
|
|
markdown link. Except when the page isn't formatted in markdown..
