MathJax enabled on mediawiki.org

[Erik Moeller-4]

MathJax is now enabled as an experimental math rendering mode on
MediaWiki.org (thanks, Aaron).

To enable it, select it in your preferences under "Appearance".

I've set up a page here to report & track issues:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Math/MathJax_testing

While it's probably too slow to make it the default, it's a nice
alternative rendering mode which we should make available everywhere
if there are no remaining major issues. Thanks to Brion and everyone
else involved in getting it to this point.

Erik

Awesome -- this confirms that it does work, including the web fonts, in our
production environment. :D

If no major issues crop up, it'd be great to turn this on for all wikis so
people can test "in place" on en.wikipedia.org etc.

Big thanks to Nageh who did a lot of the early work at MathJax integration
as a user script, and Davide Cervone of MathJax who helped us with updates
to MathJax 2.0 and related fixes.

There'll still be some custom commands that need to be added, but most
equations should render nicely. Please give a shout if anything looks
wrong/suspicious, and file bugs in bugzilla. We'll either fix the custom
commands or pass problems on to the MathJax folks. :D

Can we not use wiki pages for bug reporting… Bugzilla is so much
better for that ;)

Listing bugs after they have been filed sure, but just plain reporting
it gets messy and its so much easier if its in Bz.
