Hi,
I'm not sure if I fully understood this, but if so, I don't think you need
to modify the code, or use additional extensions, for that matter. If you
have a query like:
{{#ask:[[Category:Art objects]]|link=none|template=Art object query}}
...and then, in template "Art object query", something like:
[[File:{{{1}}}.jpg|thumb|link={{{1}}}]] [[{{{1}}}]]
...it should work. The key is the "link=none", which displays just the name
of each page, and not a link.
Although really, I would say you should have each page link to its image
using a semantic property, instead of just assuming that it's "page
name.jpg". Then the query could be even easier:
{{#ask:[[Category:Art objects]]|?Has image}}
If I remember correctly, image pages are by default displayed as thumbnails
within SMW queries.
For your second question - if you're arguing that every image displayed
within a page should by default have a property (like maybe even "Has
image") pointing to it, that could be a reasonable feature. Though dates and
locations would be a lot harder to implement, and probably not all that
helpful. That's assuming I understood the question correctly.
