To Do List
(e)
Some information presented in structural wiki is harvested from external resources.
Data harvested from BridgeArt.net software database
Basic information about software, software companies, design codes and data formats is to be entered into the BridgeArt.net software database and including into the structural wiki via several custom tags. The following custom tags are used to create corresponding databoxes based on the data contained in the BridgeArt.net software database:
<software_database_software_databox tag="/> <software_database_software_company_databox tag="/> <software_database_data_format_databox tag="/> <software_database_design_code_databox tag="/>
No databox is needed for keywords as the description would be entered directly into the wiki.
Hyperlinking of Corresponding StructuralWiki.org and BridgeArt.net Items
The bridgeart.net software database contains a script that automatically create wiki links, if the corresponding wiki entry (software, publisher, keyword, data format, or design code) has been manually entered into the wiki using the above tags. The presence of a particular item in the wiki is be determined from the tag parameter of the semantic markup. This tag matches between this wiki and software database and the software database checks the presence of the tag in the wiki using list available from Template:Software_Database_Tags.
Entry Guidelines
Software
Multiple pages relevant to a particular software can be created. The pages will be grouped together by using a Template:Software Infobox template with the matching tag on each page. The main page will contain a databox harvested from BridgeArt.net using the <software_database_software_databox> tag. This will automatically assign the main page to Category:Software.
Example: SAP2000
Software Categories
Pages for software categories are populated by using the Template:List of Software for Software Category template. These pages do not typically need to be edited after the initial setup. All software category pages are placed in the SoftwareCategory namespace.
Example: SoftwareCategory:Bridge_Design
Software Publisher
Multiple pages relevant to a particular software publisher can be created. The pages will be grouped together by using a Template:Software Company Infobox template with the matching tag on each page.
