Wikipedia plots and tables?
I've not done any of this, but you might look at (a variation of) one of the following tool chains: knitr markdown --pandoc--> mediawiki brew --pander--> mediawiki pander is at http://rapporter.github.com/pander/ Best, Ista On Sat, Feb 23, 2013 at 4:59 PM, Spencer Graves

Hello, All:
What facilities exist for plots and tables of data in the standard
MediaWiki software beyond the obvious standards?
The standard MediaWiki tables and graphics capabilities seem to me to
be rather clumsy, and I wonder if I'm missing some available extensions?
The standard MediaWiki tables are described in a Wikipedia article on
"Help:Table". Wikimedia Foundation projects ask users to upload photos and
graphics Wikimedia Commons -- preferably in scalable vector graphics (*.svg)
format.
For additions I'm making to Wikimedia projects, I'm adding two things
to the Ecdat package, now on R-Forge:
(1) Economics data sets with documentation describing how to
produce a *.svg file, which I then upload to Wikimedia Commons and use in
Wikimedia projects such as Wikipedia, Wikiversity, and Wikinews. The
description of the contribution refers to Ecdat for details.
(2) Functions to facilitate creating and updating data objects
being added.
Are there better ways of producing quality graphics and maybe
interfacing R with MediaWiki projects?
Thanks,
Spencer Graves
