Thank you for this thorough & helpful run-through - and I'm sorry that it's taken me so long to get back to you! I've been thinking about this issue & beginning to reach out the developer for potential technical solutions, hence the delay. Okay, about transclusion: From a technical standpoint, this simplifies the issue, and I love that it eliminates the duplication of text. However, like you wrote, transclusion complicates the process from a user perspective, and it eliminates the ability for users to edit *any* page. This has made me think through what we need from the pages, regardless of cost. Ultimately, I think we need to create the ability for users to edit content that is page-specific OR broadly applicable to all relevant city and country pages (which would require a common editor to automatically update all relevant pages). There may be some extensions that *may* be able to help with this requirement, but from my understanding, this will require quite a bit of technical work. My budget doesn't allow for this kind of work, so I'll probably need to begin thinking about potential fundraisers or other ways to generate these funds. Do you think it's a worthy issue for a crowdfunding/fundraising campaign of some sort? I would like to include this technical improvement along with other technical updates (like updating the MediaWiki version too - thanks for pointing that out!) in the big technical push. Let me know your thoughts, if you get the chance! [[User:Lani314|Lani314]] ([[User talk:Lani314|talk]]) | |||
