Extension:Knowledgebase
 | This extension stores its source code on a editable wiki page rather than in a code repository. As a result, this code may be maliciously altered. It may contain security vulnerabilities, and will not receive localisation updates from translatewiki.net. Developers are strongly encouraged to host their code in a code repository rather than a wiki page so that the extension can be properly maintained, reviewed, and kept secure. |

This simple extension adds a special page called Special:Knowledgebase that redirects to the next-higher integer article number in the namespace 'KB'. Handy if you want to maintain a set of numbered knowledge base articles in your wiki eg KB:00013.
- Get SpecialKB.php - instructions are in the file.
After you install the extension go to Special Pages on your wiki. At the top you should see "Add Knowledge Base Article". Click on that and it will take you to a new empty page.
