I would have probably gone by the page_props route, passing the metadata from the wikitext to the tables via a parser function. Conceptually, revision table shouldn't link to file_props. file_props should be linked with image instead. I like the idea of an author manager, specially if it's done as a pseudo-namespace. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
