Semantic MediaWiki
leaves your MediaWiki installation intact
no patching, just a (bunch of) MW extension(s)
already existing unstructured content can stay as it is or be
transformed
gives you all the tools you need for a
collaborative web database
entering data and text
representing/visualising data and text within the wiki
re-use/export data outside the wiki
everything is done through configuration
Attributes, Forms, Templates, Filters… are wiki pages
Queries, parsing, “programming” via Wikitext
