| − | The Template Parameter Index is a Wiki extension designed to harvest information from any template present on wiki pages into an index or cache table. The result is similar to how mediawiki handles categories, links and other relations. The extension uses the mediawiki XML-API and has the ability to harvest other wikis in addition to its own datasource. The external wikis are defined in a special configuration page, linked through the SpecialPage:TemplateParameterIndex. In addition, in the local wiki, page updates will automatically update the TemplateParameterIndex.

| − | The harvested information is exposed through an analysis functionality on the Special page, and through an xml-interface. The latter is used to ingest information into a FEDORA repository (see [[Definition_specs_for_Fedora_Ingestion_Service#Interaction_between_Ingest_and_Wiki_TemplateParameterIndex]]).
