Activate Collection Extension for generating PDF on all Wikisources
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Please activate the new collection extension for generating of PDF also on de.wikisource. We think this would be a great enhancement for our users. We would pregenerate PDFs for Books, Collections of poems etc. and give the user a link to this pregenerated PDF.

Thanks

Michail

I support this wish. It would be more than helpfull to have this extension aktiveted. Wie have a lot of books anf collections where we need it.

Since Collection is enabled on all Wikibooks projects, please enable it also on all Wikisource projects. This new feature don't need to reach consensus on every wiki to get enabled, since it does not change the MediaWiki usage, only adds a feature that give to the end-user the option to use it or to ignore it.

The extension itself is very helpful for all Wikisources since a large work is usually split into dozens of wiki-pages.

Because this feature really don't need to have consensus on every single book-like wiki to get enabled, please enable this also for all other Wikisources and Wikipedias (at least); as for now this is only live on dewiki and dewikisource, sadly.

As announced and as I can see this extension works on Wikisources already, but it does not work on the multilingual Oldwikisource. Is there any reason for or will it be enabled as well? Thx, -jkb-

yes yes yes... Raymond from de.wiki mentioned it and now I see it - that's fine and thanks, -jkb-
