Installation

I have modified xmlQuiz (by Jon Thomas) to work within the MediaWiki framework. Now this is not a true extension as what I did was placed a MediaWiki wrapper around the xmlQuiz.

Within a new directory I added two files:

Then I make an external link from within the MediaWiki site to http://website/wiki/quizes/Quiz.php.

This met the basic requirement I had to provide some form of quizes on the MediaWiki site. In the future I may modify this further to become an actual extension with the appropriate hooks.
