== Parsoid ==

As part of the [ticket:706 upgrade to 1.22.5] a [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid Parsoid] server was installed, see [https://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/03/04/parsoid-how-wikipedia-catches-up-with-the-web/ Parsoid: How Wikipedia catches up with the web]:

> Parsoid is implemented as a node.js-based web service. There are two distinct, and somewhat independent pieces to Parsoid: the parser and runtime that converts Wikitext to HTML, and the serializer that converts HTML to Wikitext.

To start and stop the node.js service:

{{{
/etc/init.d/pslparsoid stop
/etc/init.d/pslparsoid start
}}}

See ticket:706#comment:12 for the source of the pslparsoid init.d script.
