- MediaWiki help: general help for users of wikis.
- SMW help: help on the semantic tools provided by the Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) extension used by AIRWiki.
- SMW_Project_Workflow: description of the complete lifecycle of a project in AIRWiki, from proposal to closure. Useful if you are setting up or coordinating a project.
- Dynamic Page Generation: guidelines for the creation of semantic queries within AIRWiki. A collection of useful examples.
- AIRWiki_Ontology: this is the structure of the ontology behind the semantic elements of AIRWiki. Useful to keep in mind when writing queries.
- SMW extension: official page of the SMW extension for MediaWiki. It provides a list of the features of SMW.
- Semantic Forms extension for SMW: official page of the extension providing SMW with semantic forms functionality, listing its features.
Tips for inexperienced SMW users
New to SMW? This introduction is the right place to learn what it is.
Approach
These are basic decisions about the structure of AIRWiki that have been taken. You should always comply with them when editing the AIRWiki.
- All reasonably static information about the AIRLab should be published in the AIRLab website. All information which need to be modified more frequently (say: at least twice a year) should instead be put into the AIRWiki. The AIRWiki also offers the possibility of building pages which are automatically updated.
- The AIRLab website should mention all the research areas active in AIRLab; but some of these could be absent from the AIRWiki.
- AIRWiki DOES NOT include a "Projects" page (where the projects of AIRLab are listed). Projects are listed in the pages of the relevant research area.
