Notes about Semantic Media Wiki

Tables can be created with markup like this:

How does this work? Well, if you had on every DWM page during the DWW the following things, then you'd autormatically generate a dynamic table: Look how it prints it:
 * pubtitle::Doctor Who Weekly (and during other eras, we'd say pubtitle::Doctor Who Monthly, pubtitle::Doctor Who: The Official Magazine, pubtitle::Doctor Who Magazine, etc.
 * number::1, number::2, etc. Store the issue number in number::x format
 * date::19800205 or whatever. Store the cover date as a numerical string.
 * editor::Dez Skinn, etc.
 * pubtitle::Doctor Who Weekly (and during other eras, we'd say pubtitle::Doctor Who Monthly, pubtitle::Doctor Who: The Official Magazine, pubtitle::Doctor Who Magazine, etc.
 * number::1, number::2, etc. Store the issue number in number::x format
 * date::19800205 or whatever. Store the cover date as a numerical string.
 * editor::Dez Skinn, editor::Paul Neary, etc.

Completely ordinary-looking and behaving links! But they have semantic meaning behind them, which means we can now query that data in the table markup above.
