Hej Thomas, Hey Tobias (so happy to see you back here!)
>>it works DOM-oriented and thus – as for now – on a per tiddler base.
As far as I found out, your numbering counts through the storyriver,
wich is fine for endnotes...
>>A generic query language that allows us to say something like:
* from where I am, find the outer tiddler (identified somehow, e.g.
"class > contains > tc-tiddler-frame")
* return all parseTreeNodes of type *foo* where property *bar
*contains *baz*
Mat has achieved what something like that in quite brute force way in
the cherrypicker.tiddlyspot.com. The problem ist that it has trouble
dealing with Wiki-Code-Expressions, that is to say I have trouble doing
this.
Perhaps it would be smarter to do something like that in js...

Hej Jan,
I think I know where you are coming from (I read your thoughts here:
http://slidesnstories.tiddlyspot.com/#TextStretch%20by%20Thomas%20Elminger)
and I think it would be interesting to develop a concept for
scientific documents authored using TW5.
Tobias points towards something that is critical for my CSS numbering
solution: It is based on presentation and agnostic of content and
structure. For scientific work I am afraid this is not enough.
Important features of TiddlyWiki are transclusion, lists and filters …
I think a scientific authoring tool should be able to deal with that.
So a broader concept is needed. Let me explain some thoughts: In a
perfect world, …
1. Authors would write chapters or sub-chapters as tiddlers and
collect them in chapters and publications (books). A book usually is
built up in a traditional structure like
* Title
* Contents Overview
* Foreword
* Chapter 1
o Sub-chapter 1.1
+ and so on 1.1.1
# <<ref "see chapter 2.1">>
# term definition 1.1.1.1
* Chapter 2
o and so on 2.1
+ reference to term definition 1.1.1.1: <<ref "{{term
definition}}">>
* Conclusion
* Indexes
2. Publishers would ask for one document with all the content to
reformat it for other publication channels like printed books, e-books
and the like. What would this master document be? A story river?
3. Schools would possibly put the book on a server (in a DB like
Danielo’s here
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/LyXt4oneBKI/FGbwFy2JBAAJ>?
or in a TWederation Wiki?) where teachers/students can
download/connect to it.
4. Teachers would collect chapters from several books as readings for
their students. Can they use TW for this? How would this affect
numbering of chapters and references?
5. Students would make their own annotations or cite excerpts in their
own works.
A fool-proof authoring system would offer solutions and/or guidelines
to use cases like these. To make a relevant contribution for
scientific authors we should at least have a concept for 1. and 2. How
should an author structure his/her work? What do we use single
tiddlers for? How many levels of (nested) transclusion are acceptable?
And so on …
Do you have a concept, Jan, or a real-world example wiki, we could use
for this? It could be very helpful to develop and test even small
contributions against such a reference project.
Kind regards,
Thomas
