--- Comment #20 from badon <fastgoldf...@gmail.com> --- Right, that's what WikiData is for. SMW could work on the smaller projects though. From what little I know of WikiData, it should be straightforward to convert mundane SMW usage into WikiData usage if in the future those smaller projects aren't so small anymore. In general, I suspect that externalizing the semantic data processing load like WikiData is doing is probably the only way to approach the scaling problem. I'd have to study it more to be sure of that, but I'm guessing SMW's poor scaling will still bog down Moore's law in most use cases. Then again, maybe it's possible to externalize SMW itself, but that's useless observer speculation for now. I know Mozilla uses SMW, and if it's working for them, there's a good chance something like WikiNews can use it too. I'm not sure how "big" Mozilla's usage of SMW is compared to WikiNews, but my impression is that WikiNews is tiny. It's definitely tiny compared to Wikipedia. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
