By using semantic data (facilitated by forms and/or templates), you can turn your wiki into a database of events, hikes, multi-faceted employee directory, product or service catalog and virtually any other "database" that you can dream up. The schema of the database is more organic, and doesn't require as much technical know-how to create or modify.
== Instructions ==Mark up your page content with inline annotations. Then use the '''[[Special:Browse|Browse]]''' and '''[[Special:Ask|Ask]]''' pages to come up with queries that you can embed into "report" pages.=== Example Annotations ===
;<nowiki>[[explainsFeature::SemanticMediaWiki]]</nowiki>: The regular inline syntax is very similar to Category syntax except the normal 'Category' keyword is instead the property
;<nowiki>[[explainsFeature::SemanticMediaWiki| ]]</nowiki>: If you add a pipe and space character, the annotation will not display a link, so use this form to "hide" the annotation from
}}</nowiki>: Using the #set parser tag can help with complicated property names or values.
== What's In The Box ===== Browse ===
Pages like [[Special:Browse/Features-23_QUERY504415247238cca9574ac4fa4bf3fb91]] reveal information about the semantic data.
=== Ask ===
The [[Special:Ask]] page lets you run queries through a form-based wizard making it much easier to get the right query, and the right display
== Case Study / Guide ==
Dr. Cindy Cicalese and the team at MITRE have put together a website showcasing the features of Semantic MediaWiki and how it's used at https://collaborate.mitre.org/gestalt/index.php/Main_Page.
