Summary[edit]
DescriptionEvolving wikitext- embracing incrementalism.webm |
English: On the parsing team, one of our mission has been to advance wikitext as a language -- making it easier to write, faster to parse, and less error-prone. However, this goal has turned out to be pretty challenging. There is a huge corpus of wikitext and templates on the various Wikimedia wikis that has to continue being usable. Editors have workflows that are based on wikitext, and wikitext diffs. Together, this means that any changes we want to make to wikitext has to be done fairly conservatively. In this presentation, we'll try to elaborate on some of these challenges and how we have had to embrace incrementalist approaches. We will also try to brainstorm on ideas / strategies for what might enable non-incrementalist approaches to evolving wikitext and templating.
