The [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Bibtex Bibtex extension] doesn't look like it's being actively maintained, but it might work. I'm testing it on the test web server alongside BibManager.
== Ghost vs. WordPress (3/14/2016) ==
So it looks like we may choose Ghost over WordPress. We need something self-hostable, and ideally open-source (and both Ghost and WP satisfy those two conditions). However, I hear Ghost is more lightweight, so if we're not looking for a lot of extra functionality from third-party plugins, Ghost may be the better choice. I'm setting up Ghost on the [[Test Web Server Documentation#Installing Ghost (3/14/2016)|test web server]], so we'll see how it goes...
Turns out Ghost+apache is kinda difficult (definitely more difficult than WordPress+Apache), so let's just try WordPress.
 
== WordPress (3/14/2016) ==
The [[Test Web Server Documentation#WordPress (3/14/2016)|test web server]] had a pretty easy time installing WordPress alongside the existing mediawiki site, so it seems that we'll use WP for the blog on this web server as well.
I also uncovered something about HTMLTidy that may impact how well templates from Wikipedia run on our mediawiki [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Using_content_from_Wikipedia#HTMLTidy]. It looks like we can either [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgTidyConfig set an option] in LocalSettings.php to enable HTMLTidy or we can [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Transwiki get the templates from another source].
