Wikiation isolation level
The full name is : Wikiation extension isolation level.
Each MW extension should be compatible with every other MW extension. That is a quite high requirement. But for the owner of a wiki it is not desirable that, if he uses extension "X" it is not possible to use extension "Y" anymore. In Definition isolation of extensions is a more theoretical approach.

Isolation
This can be achieved by isolation. Extension "X" does not interfere with anything which might effect Extension "Y". Only testing can show that one extension interferes with the other. Below is a list of checks which can be done to test the isolation of extensions.
Points
Each item which is checked, and is isolated get a Definition wikiation isolation point
Level
So no 1 is the best see for details : Definition wikiation isolation level WIL is short for Wikiation Isolation Level.
- With 3 points WIL_1
- With 2 points WIL_2
- With 1 point WIL_3.
MediaWiki core
If an extension does not alter the core of MediaWiki software then there is isolation on this level. The extension is : MW core isolated = true
Check
With Wikiation check extension isolation.
Database structure
If the extension does not alter the database structure then there is isolation on this level. The extension is : DB isolated = true
Check
With Wikiation check extension isolation.
No java used
Test is no java (multi-platform programming language) is used by the extension. No java used = true
Check
With Wikiation check extension isolation.
LocalSettings.php
LocalSettings.php has to be altered to be able to work. This is Ok. But this should not be (a change of) conflict with other settings.
Check
No tool availeble but a description in check isolation localsettings
