Tables
Mediawiki can render tables
Example:
{|border=’1’ cellpadding=’10’ cellspacing=’0’
! First cell in the header
! Second cell in the header row
|-
| First cell in the second row
| Second cell in the second row
|-
| First cell in the third row
| Second cell in the third row
|}

Categories
Categories help to group pages
Example: [[Category:My favorite sites]]
A link to the category page which lists all the pages in that
category is added. The description page of the category can
be edited.

Namespaces
Namespaces group pages on a higher level
There are some default names spaces that have prefixes like
User:, File:, Talk:
The main namespace does not have any prefix
Namespaces can be added by modifying the configuration file
10. Recapitulation Tables Organizing content Templates ACL Extensions Licenses Link collections Sources
Subpages
Subpages offer a way to build hierarchies of pages
Example: [[People/Scientists/Albert Einstein]]
Per default this function is available in the User name space
but has to be enabled for the main namespace
11. Recapitulation Tables Organizing content Templates ACL Extensions Licenses Link collections Sources
Redirects
Redirects make it possible to generate aliases of pages
Example: The page “EMBL” of the English Wikipedia
redirects the user to the page “European Molecular Biology
Laboratory”
#REDIRECT [[European Molecular Biology Laboratory]]

Access control list
ACL: who can do what
who = a user or a group of users
what = read, write, create or delete pages; upload files
16. Recapitulation Tables Organizing content Templates ACL Extensions Licenses Link collections Sources
ACL functionality is missing in Mediawiki
Due to its open philosophy Mediawiki has only very limited
user rights management capabilities
It distinguishes between users, registered users, administrators,
bureaucrat and bots
This is why we use DokuWiki for the ACL demonstration
You can search WikiMatrix for wiki engines with ACL
