SMW is used on some largish wikis at Wikia and it apparently causes issues very often. The largest wiki with SMW at Wikia is very small in comparison to a lot of WMF wikis. SMW has historically had a touch of the featuritis. Most of its features would need to be disabled on WMF wikis due to performance reasons, and then what's the point? - Ryan _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
