Dear Markus, Yury, Semantic MediaWikians, and Wikitechians, Thanks for your feedback about Semantic mediawiki and map data coordinate-wise, in terms of colors:
"SMW does not have a special datatype for representing colours. You can encode wavelengths as numbers. Sound data is not supported, nor is any such support planned right now." (Markus K.) In thinking through broadly, and planning for, for example, how both modeling a virtual classroom (e.g. a chemistry classroom, in something like an interactive, movie-realistic OpenSim or WoW) as well as a virtual universe might work, coordinate-wise for color and sound, vis-a-vis World University and School, as well as with Wikidata and Wikibase, I'm curious about a number of coordinate-related questions, particularly cross-language-wise, in Semantic Mediawiki's "annotating semantic data within wiki pages, thus turning a wiki that incorporates the extension into a semantic wiki" (from Wikipedia) for the future. For example, will Google Translate in Android, for example, be able to articulate code-wise with 1) Semantic Mediawiki, and 2) Wikidata and Wikibase, say, ten years in the future, for color as well as sound translation, for an universal translator (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_Universal_Translator), for example, when viewing Monet's sunrise - http://www.med.yale.edu/neurobio/mccormick/fill_in_seminar/Slide2.JPG - in the Sunhala language (from Sri Lanka) and asking questions of the painting, or adding a Semanticwiki annotation (say, between the Sinhala language and the Hungarian language, in text or voice), or, further, even listening to the sounds of, while watching its colors change, of the sun (presuming this generates sound) 92 million miles away, and annotating this, at some point in the future. Even though Semantic Mediawiki has no plans to support sound, if Wikidata and Wikibase have plans to support sound files (or don't), say, to wiki edit about the colors of the sun, or Monet's painting, via coordinates, is there a way for World University and School, as we grow (here's WUaS's Computational Linguistics' wiki subject, with a number of MIT OCW courses to begin, for example), to build on Semantic Mediawiki, Wikidata and Wikibase, but particularly Wikidata, for sound? What URL might point me to Semantic Mediawiki, Wikidata and Wikibase's plans, but particularly Wikidata's, for mapping coordinate and sound development? Coding for sound support seems possibly very valuable in the development of Semantic Mediawiki, Wikidata and Wikibase, for the future, in addition to developing sophisticated coordinates for, for example, mapping the sun as the internet itself develops, but the Semantic Mediawiki and Wikidata projects are immense as they are, so I'm glad you're focusing them so knowledgeably and skillfully.
