Note bug 6163 comment 5.

I saw in that bug, that this extension will only be installed on smaller wikis.
Meta is larger than Incubator and has this extension already installed (see [[meta:Special:Version]]).

Reopening as blocker of bug 12423.

Tracking bugs don't work by resolving as duplicates - we mark them as blockers.

Retagging as site request rather than extension bug.

Developing wikinews projects without this extension is working in vain.

Larger projects have DPL installed - I imagine the servers can handle DPL running on Incubator. Some of these projects will get DPL when they move to their own wiki - they should have it while hosted at Incubator as well.

We are waiting for more that a year for this extention, I contacted Tim Starling on IRC today and there wasn't a reason to not install the extension but the communenty consensus was missing so here I will add the links. (please note that Incubator has a small group of users that really respond, normally users stay just inside there own project and only edit when the want to oppose.

The latest post about DPL is found here:

A older post is more than a year old:

Bug #11963

Incubator is used to start new project, There are several wikinews project on Incubator they need the DPL and the will get it when the have there own domain. But why should the used difficult work around ways when the extension can be activated on Incubator.

I hope that a developer will install it soon, we waited for more than a year and a half :)

Thank you,

Huib

It is now enabled. Everyone thank Huib for poking me to take ownership of this one ;]
