[Semediawiki-user] Creating SMW for open specification from sratch

[<sem...@ch...>]

I have installed WikiMedia, SMW and enabled templates. I am attempting =20
to create a model page from one of many similar entries. I am =20
attempting to duplicate the OpenType specification record into a =20
collaborative, super-indexed site.

http://www.opentypology.org

So far, I have focused on creating one "good" page because the =20
information will be similar for most of the pages. Most pages will =20
document OpenType "tags". I have run into several quandries so far:

Is the "Facts about..." a template? Is this editable? I would like to =20
have it run down a right column, like a wikipedia taxobox. Is that =20
done with a CSS float?

To create the semantic data, I wrote a narrative section, then tagged. =20
I would rather have most of the semantic data presented in ONLY the =20
"Facts about.." box (although others could still tag elsewhere). Is =20
this possible?

The current method includes Categories. However, every major category =20
is also an Attribute. Is there a way to replace category pages with =20
Specially formated "saved searches" that are predefined, with =20
Category-like names?
