The MediaWiki Filter module (aka mediawiki_filter) provides an input format, compatible with MediaWiki markup. Opposed to older approaches, it does not emulate the MediaWiki parser, but wraps the original MediaWiki's library for parsing and rendering MediaWiki syntax.

Built-in features (no additional modules required):

  • 100% compatibility with MediaWiki markup;
  • Table support;
  • Distinction between internal and external links;
  • ToC. Table of content support;
  • Templates. A content type can be defined as Template. Usage: {{Name}}
  • Interwiki links are supported and can be specified by providing a mapping of interwiki targets and mapping URLs. A special interwiki target is given for linking to a drupal path.

Module status: To gain full project status, this sandbox project has been submitted to the Drupal.org Project applications queue on September 1, 2011.
