| + | * Write a parser tag to transclude the real output data from the pages. (This would be used on URL pages) | ||
| + | * Write a updated loader to include .css and .js files in all pages from MetaData (As a replacement for [[MediaWiki:Wiki Extension.js]] - for now please continue to use [[MediaWiki:Common.js]] and [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] | ||
| + | * New plugin to dynamically generate parser tags from configuration. This would probably underpin access to the upcoming Items DB V2 from the Wiki. | ||
