| Extensions are of four types: |
| * Core: they come with Mediawiki core and are updated with it |
| * Contrib, available through ExtensionDistributor [1]: updated manually when Mediawiki is updated |
| * Contrib, not available through ExtensionDistributor: not updated, stored in SVN for convenience |
| * Custom: GoogleCoop and OOoIDLtags, stored in SVN |

| == Using tags for syntax coloring: == |
| mwiki uses Syntaxhighlight extension for coloring of source code. |
| In older versions (before MediaWiki 1.16), the extension used the tag <source>. |
| This is still supported, but is deprecated. <syntaxhighlight> should be used instead. |
