URLs and Permalinks
How do we make the URLs for individual pages shorter/prettier? - Toni Sant (talk)
Can we activate redirection for non-CasE-sENsiTive titles? This is available on wikipedia - so, is it a configuration option in MediaWiki? - Toni Sant (talk)
How do we handle disambiguation, such as with Sworn Independent which is both the name of an newspaper article by Michael Bugeja and the name of a single by the band The Myth? - Toni Sant (talk)
Making it look good
We need to add a list of special characters (esp. Maltese letters) in the edit page. - Toni Sant (talk)

User Group Rights
On Tuesday 31 August 2010 Toni Sant (talk) locked unregistered user access to:
- Create discussion pages (createtalk)
- Create pages (which are not discussion pages) (createpage)
- Edit pages (edit)
- Use of the write API (writeapi)
See Special:ListGroupRights for current rights. Amendment made to includes/DefaultSettings.php --Toni Sant (talk) 11:05, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
The 'upload file' link in the toolbox has been disabled. Are we going to allow users to upload media in the near future? Or are we going to decide on this after the 25 September launch? Alex Grech (talk)
Facebook integration
We need to add a FB like box to the main page and/or to the landing page but first we must install this widget to enable the inclusion of the iframe. Width, height and connection number may need to be adjusted too. Here's the code for the M3P FB like box:
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?id=151613981521442&width=570&connections=10&stream=false&header=false&height=165" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:570px; height:165px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
Integrating FB ID login on the wiki is (as per Ds' suggestion) via the FBConnect extension is probably also a good idea. --Toni Sant (talk) 10:33, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
And the rest...
Removed these three links from the Getting Started section on the Main Page because they may be confusing to people visiting the site for the very first time.
We probably need to keep these handy somewhere eventually, but I thought I'd just dump them here for now.--Toni Sant (talk) 11:05, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
