Allow collaboration through MediaWiki
How would that look?
Are there no external tools that sync between Markdown files (because that's what QOwnNotes creates) and MediaWiki?
Hmmm not exactly: https://gramps.discourse.group/t/converting-github-markdown-to-mediawiki-articles/2477/5
I've been searching for a desktop MediaWiki editor for a long time now, there are some initiatives but most of them are unusable or Wikipedia specific.
So what do you think QOwnNotes could do and why?
I think this offering can combine the power and stability of MediaWiki as a collaboration platform with the power, stability and usability of QOwnNotes.
It's about creating a new value, MediaWiki can't work offline efficiently while it's a well known strength for QOwnNotes.
There are several scenarios:
This way the user can manage personal notes and notebooks which are in fact Wiki articles (either public on Wikipedia or private in a MediaWiki instance).
Thank you and sorry for the late reply.
I don't think that would work at all, the Syntax of MediaWiki is completely different from Markdown. 🤔
So what about GitHub Wiki?
QOwnNotes is using Markdown only. But you can build a static webpage from Markdown files pretty easily. https://www.qownnotes.org/ is built from Markdown files. You could even build it using the GitHub CI and host it on GitHub pages.
GitHub Wiki is using markdown as well: https://docs.github.com/en/communities/documenting-your-project-with-wikis
GitHub Pages is a great idea, thank you :)
