Lets try to figure out how we can best integrate a community configuration for the backlink marker symbols.
There's currently a WIP where we played with the genral idea and looks of such a setting. The challenges are, that we'll have a long list of alphabets and users could have different approaches on what keyword they would want to filter this to get to their results.
See {T377575}
[x] Put WIP in patchdemo --> https://6067b5f1bb.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Special:CiteConfiguration
[] Discuss the idea with Martin ( Urbanecm ) and see what's his advice
[] Plan further implementation
# Options to implement backlink marker settings
## 1) Add to community configuration extension
Description: We can use the existing extension community configuration (see epic).
- Pro: Central place for users
- Pro: Easy to integrate
- Con: No preview possible
## 2) Create own special page for cite configs
Description: We can create a new special page for this and other settings for Cite.
- Pro: Full control of the interface
- Con: Would need to manage the integration
## 3) JS module loaded in community configuration
Description: We can add to the community configuration extension.
- Pro: Add features we need to the default settings page
- Pro: Preview in community config
- Con: Would need a hook
- Is it acceptable? We will talk to the extension maintainers.
