Talk:MediaWiki FAQ

Licence in Talk-pages

Are the Talk-pages also non-GFDL since they are not included in the distribution ? // Rogper 20:59, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

Talk pages are GFDL. MediaWiki is GPL though. I don't think this is related to them not being included. Accorded to Brion's latest edit, the reason help pages are not included is just because there is no clean, generic, internationalized help page set. Angela 06:18, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Offline Version of Wiki?

I happen to be in a situation where Internet access is very limited. Are there any current or future projects in the works to create DVD versions of the Wiki? If so, where and how can they be purchased. jpaisley@gmail.com

Re-arranging headings

I've split the "Customization" heading into "Configuration" and "More complex customization", because it was disproportionately large, and mixed issues of built-in customization facilities with issues of actually changing core pieces of the code. Of course, people asking questions won't necessarily know which is which, but I figure people answering can always move the section. However, if you disagree, feel free to revert the change but make sure you include the answer regarding LocalSettings.php/$wgSitename which was introduced in the same edit. - IMSoP 22:27, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)

File URLs

Here is an addendum to the "Is it somehow possible to use a FILE URI-Qualifier for local intranets e.g. [file://localhost/C: C-Drive] ?" question. I can get UNC file URLs to work with both IE 6 and Firefox if the UNC starts with: file:/%5C%5C. For example, file:/%5C%5CWindowsServer/share/documents/testcases.doc.

Note: MediaWiki requires modifications to get file: URI-Qualifiers to work.
