RDF Authoring in Wikis

چکیده
Although the Semantic Web vision is gaining momentum and the underlying technologies are used in many different areas, there still seems to be no agreement on how they should be used in everyday documents, such as news, blogs or wiki pages. In this paper we argue that two aspects are crucial for the enrichment of this documents with semantic annotations: full support for RDF and close integration of the annotations with the continuous text. The former is necessary because many common relationships cannot be expressed by attribute-value-pairs, the latter reduces redundancy and enables Web browsers to help readers using the contained data. To gain further insights, we implemented an RDFa-capable extension for MediaWiki and report on improvements for wiki use cases and other applications on top of the contained data.

متن کاملCustomized Edit Interfaces for Wikis via Semantic Annotations
Authoring support for semantic annotations represent the wiki way of the Semantic Web, ultimately leading to the wiki version of the Semantic Web's eternal dilemma: why should authors correctly annotate their content? The obvious solution is to make the ratio between the needed effort and the acquired advantages as small as possible. Two are, at least, the specificities that set wikis apart fro...
متن کاملNext-Generation Wikis: What Users Expect; How RDF Helps
Even though wikis helped start the web 2.0 phenomenon, they currently run the risk of becoming outdated. In order to find out what aspects of wikis will survive and how wikis might need to evolve, the author held a survey among wiki users. This paper argues that adding RDF integration to wikis helps meet the requirements implicitly contained in the answers of that survey. Technical details are ...
متن کاملSemantic Wikis for Knowledge Workers
Knowledge is crucial in our society and fundamentally created by individuals. Knowledge workers require support for authoring, finding and reminding, knowledge reuse, and collaboration. We present personal semantic wikis as supporting technology for knowledge workers, outline an architecture, and introduce our prototype implementation.
متن کاملA Wiki as an Extensible RDF Presentation Engine
Semantic wikis [1] establish the role of wikis as integrators of structured and semi-structured data. In this paper, we present Wikked, which is a semantic wiki turned inside out: it is a wiki engine that is embedded in the generic RDF editor Hyena. That is, Hyena edits (structured) RDF and leaves it to Wikked to display (semi-structured) wiki pages stored in RDF nodes. Wiki text has a clearly ...

Wikis are established means for the collaborative authoring, versioning and publishing of textual articles. The Wikipedia project, for example, succeeded in creating the by far largest encyclopedia just on the basis of a wiki. Recently, several approaches have been proposed on how to extend wikis to allow the creation of structured and semantically enriched content. However, the means for creat...
