Bug #: 29891
Summary: $smwgNamespacesWithSemanticLinks does not work for
some namespaces
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Semantic MediaWiki
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
In LocalSettings.php $smwgNamespacesWithSemanticLinks can be set to
$smwgNamespacesWithSemanticLinks = array(
NS_MAIN => true,
NS_TALK => false,
NS_USER => true,
NS_USER_TALK => false,
NS_PROJECT => true,
NS_PROJECT_TALK => false,
NS_MEDIAWIKI => false,
NS_MEDIAWIKI_TALK => false,
NS_TEMPLATE => true,
NS_TEMPLATE_TALK => false,
NS_HELP => true,
NS_HELP_TALK => false,
NS_CATEGORY => true,
NS_CATEGORY_TALK => false,
SMW_NS_PROPERTY => true,
SMW_NS_PROPERTY_TALK => false,
SMW_NS_TYPE => true,
SMW_NS_TYPE_TALK => false,
SMW_NS_CONCEPT => true,
SMW_NS_CONCEPT_TALK => false,
SF_NS_FORM => true,
SF_NS_FORM_TALK => false
);
And, unfortunately, it still does not work for for Category, Template,
Property, and Form. Those are either semantically inaccessible, or otherwise
problematic. For example, these simple queries will sometimes give a
modification date, and sometimes not:
{{#ask: [[Template:+]] | ?Modification date}}
{{#ask: [[Property:+]] | ?Modification date}}
I have not been able to get forms to produce any modification date information,
using a similar query:
{{#ask: [[Form:+]] | ?Modification date}}
Semantic mediawiki completely breaks on category wildcards, by showing every
page in the wiki, not just the categories:
{{#ask: [[Category:+]] | ?Modification date}}
A workaround for this bug is to use DynamicPageList (DPL). It is a miserable
substitute for the powerful semantic features of SMW that are supposed to work.
However, several people have had to turn to it until SMW works fully.

In addition, SMW persistently shows deleted pages, which is a related bug that
I'll post separately:
