There's a lot to be said for Mediawiki's battle-harened-ness. What makes this so much better, particularly when both could be spun up with just docker container

There's a lot to be said for Mediawiki's battle-harened-ness. What makes this so much better, particularly when both could be spun up with just docker containers?
- kube-system 5y agoMediaWiki is good if you have a public wiki. If you need to delegate permission or use an identity provider, it’s a pretty bad choice.
- eddieroger 5y agoIf your identity provider supports LDAP, not really. I was partially responsible for an enterprise wide installation of MediaWiki that talked to LDAP just fine, and this was over ten years ago.
- kube-system 5y agoI mean, it has basic support for a private wiki and delegated auth. Just not very robust support. There are a lot of dead ends for common enterprise use cases. It’s just not really designed for this use case, and there other options that do these things better out of the box.
