//(Notes from Wikimania Hackathon.)// The pagelist creation process is difficult for new users, and not particularly fast for experienced users. Aspects of the required user interface (which is at `Special:Pagelist`): * A grid of thumbnails, e.g. 40 per page. * Some number per page, with pagination controls (to jump to last few pages, or middle few pages). * Under each thumbnail is a select list of common text labels and a text-input box for numbering. * The text labels are e.g. 'title', 'ToC', etc. as well as 'roman' for starting roman numbering (returning to arabic with 'arabic'). * The current calculated full page numbering (as seem on the index page) is shown under each thumbnail as well. * At any point, the pagelist can be saved (this is done without page-refresh) * Whenever the pagelist is saved, the calculated numbering is updated live in order that the user can see where is still incorrect. Extra features: * Each thumbnail can be zoomed into (but doing so crops the image when enlarging, rather than making it take up more space on the page).

//(Notes from Wikimania Hackathon.)// The pagelist creation process is difficult for new users, and not particularly fast for experienced users. This adds a new editing widget for it, so it can be more easily edited without resorting to external programmes etc. Aspects of the required user interface (which will appear in the normal Index page editing form as the 'Pages' field): * The normal pagelist view of an inline list of page numbers, colour-coded by proofreading status. * The default view is the same as the `<pagelist />` tag with no parameters, i.e. 1-n pages with normal numbering. * On clicking a number, a thumbnail pops up. * Under the thumbnail is a select list of common text labels and a text-input box for numbering. * The text labels are e.g. 'title', 'ToC', etc. as well as 'roman' for starting roman numbering (returning to Arabic with 'arabic'). * The numbering updates when the popup is closed (but it's not saved at this point).
