Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) is a semantic wiki engine that enables users to add semantic data to wiki pages. This data can then be used for better searching, browsing, and exchanging of information. Among many other sites, SMW also powers semanticweb.org.
Current information about SMW can be found on its homepage semantic-mediawiki.org, which also contains the complete user documentation.
While Semantic MediaWiki is developed by an extended group of developers world-wide (the SMW Project), significant developments have contributed by AIFB, Karlsruhe.
[edit] Testing SMW online
The predecessor of this site, ontoworld.org, was partly used for testing SMW. Now there is a separate testing wiki for that purpose: sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org. Please do no longer use semanticweb.org for mere software testing, and remove inappropriate content where you still encounter it.
