Willipedia:Extensions

Willipedia uses MediaWiki, the same software that powers the free and famous Wikipedia. In addition, Willipedia uses the following MediaWiki Extensions, which let you insert cool components into an article page using only the textbox.

  • MailObfuscator: if you put an email address in between <email> tags, then spam robots won't be able to see it. But people will. See, it looks normal:
    • <email>wiki@wso.williams.edu</email>
