It would be nice to have a backlink to the original article either in the footer or header.

Instead of a link, one might want to use an icon to link to the slideshow.

Testing mw-slidy together with MW 1.17 (Vector skin), shows wgTitle in the left corner of the page that contains <slidy/> together with a distortion (disarrangement) of menus.

This issue is getting worse with the time: now with MW 1.24 only wgTitle appears and nothing else. I reported it to the author and on Github where the code is hosted.

Creating a slidy page with labeled sections treats the sections as if they were enclosed in pre tags.

Example:

In my source page I have something like this:

<section begin=name />
Here's some content.
<section end=name />

In my target slidy page I do this:

<slidy theme="w3" />
== Introduction ==
{{#lst:SourcPage|name}}

Instead of getting a nice slide with "Here is some content" (as I see in the non-slidy view of the target page), I see:

{{#lst:SourcPage|name}}
