Bug #: 29988
Summary: Category, template, and form semantic metadata needed
automatically for each page that uses them
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Semantic MediaWiki
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
We already get property data in the factbox, which is very handy for
developing, maintaining, and using a semantic mediawiki. All that remains to be
added is information about categories, templates, and forms that are used for
the page. Likewise, categories, templates, and forms could also have
information about which of those three things go into defining them (like if a
template is created by a form, or if a category is contained in a template).
I have been able to manually add these features to this page (user Demo, pass
dedauw):

Wiki developers, maintainers, and users can easily access the categories,
templates, and forms that go into creating that page, all in place. In
addition, I'm able to query the semantic data to display on the template page
which pages are using the template:
http://www.coincompendium.com/wiki/index.php/Template:Image
The nature of these things makes it straightforward to add them manually once,
and then use them unlimited numbers of times. However, if the properties
"Category", "Template", and "Form" were part of the metadata of each page, they
could be displayed in the factbox that already handles other properties.
Also, my factboxes do not show special metadata properties like the
"Modification date" property that currently exists - this should be at least
optional, if not the default).
