Installed ExtensionsGo to Special:Version to see the definitive list of installed extensions and their versions. See OpenWetWare:Feature test to check that the extensions are working. The following extensions are installed on OpenWetware: Critical ExtensionsCritical extensions are either those which if they break would cause many pages to "break" and as such, these extensions should be considered as important to support (for upgrades, etc). Another way to look at this: if we aren't willing to support these, then we shouldn't encourage people to use these. The known dependencies of these are listed to help in smooth upgrades.
Unknown criticality
Non-critical extensionsNon-critical extensions are defined as those which don't significantly change pages or remove important functionality. Users may use these as they wish and they should be able to easily adapt if we turn them off suddenly.
Deprecated extensionsDo not use these extensions. They may be removed at some point in the future. Desirable or pending extensionsList extensions you would like to install here and vote or de-vote for ones you'd like.
See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Mediawiki_Extensions for some extensions.
