- Create a top category for Semantic Classes. I called mine 'Categories'.
#p-logo a { background: url(/images/smacw1.png) 35% 50% no-repeat !important; }
It holds only categories used to define a 'Is-a' relationship. Doing so has
at least two benefits : 1- You can do a query on your core content by
restricting it to the 'Categories' level. 2- You can define other
categories outside of that structure for whatever your system needs.

.noticebox {
 
  -moz-border-radius: 1em;
== Discussion ==
  -webkit-border-radius: 1em;
 
   background: #eee;
Categories can be hierarchical; properties can't (yet).
   padding: 5px;
 
}
 
== MW tricks ==
 
If you want to clear out old pages you can delete them and use
deleteArchivedRevisions.php to erase the deleted revisions from the
database.
 
=== Variables ===
 
You can make use of the VariablesExtension [1] and store the query (or its
result? I'd like to know which one, but in the end it doesn't really matter) in
a variable, which is helpful when you need the same query multiple times within
a page. It looks like this:
 
{{ #vardefine: some_variable_name | {{#show:{{PAGENAME}}| ?propertyname}} }}
(silent) or
  {{ #vardefineecho: some_variable_name | {{#show:{{PAGENAME}}| ?propertyname}} }} (with output)
 
Further down in the page you can write
 
  {{ #var: some_variable_name }}
 
=== Specific searches ===
 
   <nowiki>
  <inputbox>
  type=search
  width=30
  namespaces=Help**,Wikipedia**,Template**
  searchbuttonlabel=Search help pages
  bgcolor=#cee0f2
  break=no
  </inputbox>
   </nowiki>
 
=== Hiding set data ===
 
  <nowiki>[[propertyA::{{{propertyA|}}}|]]</nowiki>
 
By adding the | after the enclosing }}}, the property value will not show.
 
For multi value properties:
 
  <nowiki>{{#arraymap:{{{Eating disorders behaviors|}}}|,|x|[[Eating disorders behaviors::x|]]}}</nowiki>
 
== Misc ==
 
=== Enable links in property values ===
 
$smwgLinksInValues = true;
 
=== Must add namespaces to config ===
 
Otherwise they won't have semantic properties.
 
$smwgNamespacesWithSemanticLinks array
 
== Media ==
