It seems to me that, when completed, the infobox editor extension might be of particular use for easily editing the XML data. -- Sy / http://jrandomhacker.info

Too bad the infobox extension is only a proof-of-concept at the moment.

[edit] What about rendering <wiki> tags as links?

I think it would be quite useful, if the contents of <wiki> tags inside the metadata would be rendered as a link to the corresponding wiki-topic. Then it would no longer be necessary to manually enter links into the metadata articles (like the link to Nord Hall in Metadata:Buildings/Nord Hall) and it would save you from forgetting to place such links as in the first listed example Metadata:Buildings/Tomlinson Hall - which looks quite boring without any link.

If I interpret Template:XSLT:building correctly, it seems that you have incorporated such a feature, but only for <wiki> tags noted within a <department> or <food> tag, but sadly there isn't any metadata record containing such data at the moment. -- mIstA 04:44, October 20, 2005 (EDT)
