Bug #: 40644
Summary: Special property provides service / changing icon for
service links
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Semantic MediaWiki
AssignedTo: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Currently service links are marked with the same icon that the #info parser
function uses, a white question mark on blue background. I do not think that
this is a good idea since a question mark suggests information to help related
topics.
In the case of service links the user gets directed to pages containing further
information (data) in contrast to information (help). To cut a long story
short, I suggest replacing the currrent icon with:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Arrow_icon.png
The arrow suggests "follow me to more information (data)" and is thus better
suited for this case and avoids ambiguity and confusion
