+== Extra Features ==
+=== WikiBot ==
+The [[user:wikibot]] makes [[Special:Contributions/Wikibot edits]] the wiki automatically, making simple cleanups and doing link verification.  It's running based of the Pywikibot software.
+=== Sphinx Search ===
+The default search in mediawiki does exact matching, but doesn't to lexicographical searches.  We have [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SphinxSearch Sphinx Search]  installed, along with indexing daemons that run hourly and nightly on the mediawiki server.
+=== Visual Editor ===
+The [[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor Visual Editor]] Is a feature Media Wiki has been working on for a while, but still isn't perfect.  Most notably it breaks pretty hard on Equipment Pages.
+We run a [[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid parsoid daemon]] in order to process mediawiki content into a form the Visual Editor can work with.
+== Technical ==
+The wiki is running MediaWiki's wiki software, the same as WikiPedia, along with some 3rd party extensions.
