Introduction

The Semantic Drilldown extension is used in combination with the Semantic Mediawiki (SemanticMW) extension and requires prior installation of SemanticMW. It provides an excellent and easy-to-use tool for browsing and filtering the semantic data entered into a wiki. For a detailed description of Semantic Drilldown see the corresponding MediaWiki extensions. For an example of how to browse and filter data see the top part of the following page on DiscoursDB.

Installation

  • Ensure the Semantic MediaWiki extension has been already installed successfully.
  • Ensure the extension Semantic Drilldown is enabled as described in Mediawiki installation.
  • Add the following line to the LocalSettings.php file for your wiki:
include_once("$IP/extensions/SemanticDrilldown/includes/SD_Settings.php");

This line should be placed below the 2 lines for enabling the Semantic MediaWiki ('include_once...' and 'enableSemantics...').

  • Verify that Semantic Drilldown has been enabled successfully by calling up the page Special:Version.
