What are the plans for exporting compound value types to RDF?
You may be getting into "blank nodes".

I have two thoughts about this:
- If you have a property like "Is happy" that can apply to every page using
this template, you might as well make it a template field - that will
standardize the data, and make it easier for users.
- if you still want to store it as free text within the template, yo
It has been pointed out that the current syntax for compound types is
rather inflexible. I'd like to propose an expanded syntax: allow
name/value pairs to be included in the semicolon-delimited list of
values. So:
[[Employment::Employer=Swiss Patent Office (Berne); Job=patent
examiner third-cl
I too support the renaming to something like "compound type" in the
documentation, if nothing else so that there'll be a place to describe true
n-ary relations when they're implemented one day (fingers crossed). :)
By the way, "n-ary relation" is an established mathematical term; see, for
example,
Hi,
I am using SMW Forms where fields are mapped onto properties within a
template which are instantiated with blocks of text[[Has Type::Text]].
The wiki contributors need to embed some simple property markup in the
field's text which I suppose means properties within properties? However

It's not a matter of the present state being incomplete. Even in its
present, incompl
I'm sure the present implementation of the "n-ary" property is only an early
stage of this vital feature but I agree that the present state could be
described more precisely by a different name.
However, I just want to express my graditute that it exists at all because for
my own purpose the whole
