Semantic MediaWiki
Calendar Tools
- Semantic Result Formats (SRF) is a MediaWiki extension, used in conjunction with the Semantic MediaWiki extension, that bundles a number of further result formats for SMW's inline queries. The individual formats can be added to the installation independently, including...
- (Extension:Semantic Result Formats/calendar format replaces the Extension:Semantic Calendar.)
- (The Discourse DB Opinion calendar is a use-case example of the Extension:Semantic Result Formats/calendar format.)
Transclude External Templates
- Portland's Wikipedia meetup page.
- Magic Words: wikipedia:Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland/Invite
Transclusion template fix?
(yup, in a sort of half-ass way. hip hip fuckin' hooray. only wasted half a dozen painful hours so far...)
Intermittent functionality at this point. Caching issue?
Try purging page:
And the "Template fetch failed" error message is often something that goes away if you purge the page cache adding "?action=purge" to the URL.
Source: "Template fetch failed"
These syntax examples appear to work after page purge:
{{wikipedia::Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland}}
{{wikipedia::Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland/Invite}}
Transcluded invite begins here.
[Interwiki transcluding is disabled]
Transcluded invite ends here.
Image Transclusion & Namespaces Transclusion Issues

- (this image shows up because it's already uploaded to portlandwiki)
- Manual:Linked images (namespace issues playing havoc with interwiki linking?)
Further (transclusion issues) research.

kotra asks:
- Are you trying to transclude the content from a Wikipedia page into PW? If so I think we would need to use mediawikiwiki:Manual:$wgEnableScaryTranscluding. -kotra (talk) 18:40, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yup! That's exactly what I'm trying to do. Thanks kotra! - Dave Myers 16:49, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
