There are a few extensions I've added to this wiki, most obviously a {!ctf} one.

  • This helps wiki pages flow about better, link more efficiently and break up filter bubbles by putting;
    • What's Popular on the bottom of the main page
    • Personal Recommendations at the bottom of user pages
    • Related Pages at the bottom of other pages
    • the font size shows relevance, colour shows how recently it was last edited
    • with intros on, user pages (e.g. User:Gav) can appear in these sections too. That way like-minded users are sort of "introduced" to each other ...
  • simple included external images
  • html5 tag for videos, sound etc
  • a custom one for the specific use of iframes

But there are loads of other things you can integrate

  • calendars
  • comments
  • rating systems
  • RSVP's
  • maps
  • whatever you like

The point is, it's very adaptable and easy to code.
