> the first-ever Semantic MediaWiki users meeting, Congratulations. > which was held in Cambridge, Massachusetts (also the headquarters of One Laptop Per Child which uses SMW. I *really* should have attended.) > - There should be more documentation. That includes codifying "best > practices" and use cases, Everyone and anyone should read and update http://sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Suggestions http://sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Inline_query_cookbook http://sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Tips and make additional "Help:" pages; inform this list when you add knowledge. (The pages are there and not semanticweb.org because cookbooks and demos need sample data.) > - Many new features were requested. Did nobody mention better ways to control the appearance of property values? All the new Result Formats are great but you can't say how individual columns should appear. The pain of making values appear the way they want is the biggest disappointment of wiki.laptop.org editors when they try SMW. For example, Property bug_number::15541 should always display as a link and without a comma. I filed enhancement request for a Property:Has_format , https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15541 Anyway, well done! Warmest regards, -- =S Page |
