Josh Said: You can write them all in one page but i think it is cleaner and logically nicer to add them in different pages. -- This must be new, when I looked into the semantic media wiki months ago, the only things you could say on a web page are attributions of the object of the web page. So you could not say Bill is in Idaho, if you were on Bob's page. This was a major design decision in the first release. One that I found that to be a major limitation, so I stopped trying to use the tool. Has this now changed? If so, I think it is a great idea. High priority should be placed on making it easy to create any triples you want anytime anywhere. After all, the tuples sit in a common triple store, there is no reason for them to be strongly associated with any particular wiki page. Where you are and what you are doing when you create a triple should not be terribly relevant. Or those are my current thoughts. Perhaps there are tradeoffs that I'm not aware of.

(or edit the > pages if they already exist to include these new relations?) If you have the Page Bob and you add [[has_brother::Bill]] a link for Bob will occur in the wikitext after saving the page. You can now click this page and edit directly the properties and relations for Bill. the same will happen for Idaho and potatoes and Wyoming. hope this helps josh > > -- > We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying > to understand and assimilate technology.
