Biggest opportunity: “content framework”, “embed” and “wiki” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

How it's measured →0.6%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 16.4K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,773 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

No way to actually use plugin since the settings to indicate the url of your mediawiki doesn’t exist. Without that of course the mediawiki page list comes up empty..with no way to add a URL. On to the next wiki candidate.
