In the end, you essentially want templates to be used for formatting the output (essentially a wiki-ized "formatting string"). I fear that this could lead to rather bad performance since you could easily have hundreds of template calls for some long list of query results. Also, the problem is what to pass to the template. As for service links, one might need many different basic forms in order to ensure that a template can achieve the desired formatting. Again this is not going to speed up things. An alternative that I see is to use the "output formats" that SMW already has for #ask printouts of various types, extending them for individual datatypes and using such a default format for all displays. Of course, this would be less powerful, but it might be less complex and easier to compute with. Maybe this was even in the spirit of your initial request. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
