To increase awareness and recognition of contributions around MediaWiki extensions we should have a (at least) monthly blog post that discusses new, interesting, or recently updated extensions on MediaWiki.org.
A really hacky way to find new extensions is to check this frequently:
http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NewPages&hidebots=1&namespace=102
| Status | Subtype | Assigned | Task | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Open | None | T100224 Promote Available (Primary New) Extensions on MWStake (Ongoing) | |||
| Open | None | T209085 Propose a standard way to announce and publish new extensions and features |
I've posted the first of what I hope to me a monthly occurring on mwstake.org. It's a quick introduction to a few new(er) extensions on MediaWiki.org.

Feedback and criticism is welcome.
@Ckoerner: Hi! This task has been assigned to you a while ago. Could you maybe share an update? Do you still plan to work on this task, or do you need any help?
If this task has been resolved in the meantime: Please update the task status (via Add Action... → Change Status in the dropdown menu).
If this task is not resolved and only if you do not plan to work on this task anymore: Please consider removing yourself as assignee (via Add Action... → Assign / Claim in the dropdown menu): That would allow others to work on this (in theory), as others won't think that someone is already working on this. Thanks! :)
I have not worked on this in quite some time. I did for a short while, but due to other commitments am unable to continue.
