Semantic properties[edit]
See Rosslyn for semantic property use within template. Breeds Place also applies some of these techniques
Carousel Results[edit]
See [[Template:TestCarousel]] More suited to images however
Genealogy[edit]
Genealogy templates are from https://familypedia.wikia.org/wiki/
Search by coordinates[edit]
In addition to just filtering on the coordinates, it is possible to incorporate further filtering options on the #ask line as per the Date<1850 parameter. Theoretically, it should be possible to filter by any semantic variables set within the pages.
The following can be incorporated into a template from where the relevant calls should be addressed. If however the absolute page title be known, it can be retrieved from the API as suggested above.
Subobjects[edit]
Property:AddressDetail seems to do the trick. To view/retrieve for a given street (page), use the template {{features}} which will give the following result:
Editing People[edit]
When editing people, there is a series of special templates derived from [familypedia.wikia.org/ FamilyPedia] which assists in creating the relationships between people e.g. marriage/offspring.
The main template is that of {{Showfacts person}} and there is a fairly comprehensive 'how to' in its documentation Template:Showfacts person.
A fairly comprehensive example of its usage with multiple marriages can be found on the Vandeleur Benjamin Crake (1816-1894) page.
Forms[edit]
See http://wiki.historymap.info/Form:TestForm1 for example of form working correctly.
Maps[edit]
Another access point is via <mapframe height=600 width=600></mapframe>, although parameters need to be identified. The Kartographer extension uses MediaWiki:Kartographer.js to define parameters.
Retrieving data from a datatable[edit]
The extension page gives the following format for the WHERE clause: where="BNA_ID='1234'"
To retrieve a single value therefore we can use the following {{#dt2-get: table | column | where | default }}
- The logical table defined with the {{tag|datatable2|open}} tag where the data should be taken from.
- The column name defined with the {{tag|datatable2|open}} tag. The column field may be left blank, in which case data is cached for later usage with the [[#dt2-lastget|dt2-lastget]] parser function, but nothing is displayed.
- The where clause that should select at most one record. If more then one record is found, an error message is displayed.
- Optionally the default text to return if no data are found. It is expanded only if needed, so using a complex template here does not lead to performance issues if used for unexpected errors only.
{{#dt2-get: BNA_Periodicals|Title|BNA_ID='0001578'}} should give us the Illustrated London News
Image Hashing[edit]
A hashing 'bot' runs a similarity hash on all files. The property in which this is stored is ImageHash, which contains the hexadecimal has as per PHP ImageHash. Ultimately a plugin/search facility will be implemented to identify similar/identical images.
Geocoding[edit]
[[Has coordinates::{{#geocode: TN34 3LW}}]]
Drilldowns[edit]
References & Notes
Getting Age[edit]
Use {{Birth year and age|1966}} if only year of birth is known - this will return 1966 (age 58–59).
