FeatureRequests

Please place feature requests for the Ubuntu Wiki on this page. Use the /talk sub-page to discuss these features. Also see the FeaturesRequest page in the Moin project wiki.


  1. RSS feeds
  2. Include RSS feed url in RecentChanges page, so users can know the URL and subscribe to it

  3. Pressing the Enter key after typing your password should log you in.
  4. Login should leave you at the page you were on
  5. A "Remove Highlighting" link.
  6. Hotkeys for editing
  7. Turn page trails off by default -- they clutter the layout and are not that useful.

  8. A direct link to the talk-subpages in the interface -- Talk pages are a handy feature, so it would be nice to link to the talk page of a given page directly from the interface. It would encourage people to start using them.

  9. The ability to restrict searches and Recent Changes to a category or a wiki sub-page area.
  10. Merge the 'Show Changes' and 'Get Info' buttons into one 'History' button (link actually). -- 'Get Info' basically gets renamed to 'History'
  11. The Page Rename dialogue should warn that it will break links, links are not automatically updates (unlike the previous wiki)
  12. Page deletion to be deactivated by normal users?
  13. Reducing the default length of the recent changes list to 2 days to make it load faster on slow connections. (MatthewEast)

  14. A search function that works (RobertStoffers)

  15. An index of wiki pages broken up into categories that is easily accessable to new users, maybe under the Support Tab->Documentation. Also better, more obvious links to any other documentation on this page too. (RobertStoffers)

  16. An easy way to sign an edit, similar to the tilde markup in MediaWiki (~~~ = user name, ~~~~ = user name plus date)

  17. Keep the same theme for wiki.ubuntu.com and ubuntu.com
  18. Remove the "Planet" button from the top bar. Already it has one in ubuntu.com/community
  19. Add a Kurdish translation of the wiki software. It is found in Rosetta. (ErdalRonahi)
