Change Details

Wikibase (and Wikibase extensions) maintain high- and mid-level documentation in the `docs` folder. To expose this documentation on the web, it would be useful to automatically copy the latest version of these files to a canonical location, when a change is merged. The following scheme could be used: Files from an extension's `docs` folder get copied to mediawiki.org as subpages of the extension's homepage. For instance, `docs/options.wiki` in the Wikibase repo would be copied to `Extension:Wikibase/docs/master/options.wiki`. To make documentation of (snapshot) releases easily accessible, the documentation should be copied (for now, manually) when a new release is made. The path for a release could looks something like `Extension:Wikibase/docs/REL1_28/options.wiki`. Documentation in plain text (and in markdown?) should be wrapped in <pre> tags when copying.
