Re: [Semediawiki-user] What is the Date Special Property For?

[James HK <jam...@gm...>]

Hi,

There has been a convention for property naming (respectively property
labels) from the early start of SMW where some names are exempted of
free-usage namely those that are codified [0, 1] or provided as
special properties by other SMW extensions.

An explicit note about naming and datatypes has been made [2].
