Substitution is a standard
mechanism in MediaWiki and would achive what Gerard
needs ... for example:
"{{subst:property_prime|date of birth}}" could be expanded and substituted to
"{{#property:Pxxx}} <--date of birth-->" and everything would be stored
in the
Wikitext. What's wrong with this kind of solution exactly ? you did not
elaborate on that.
There is nothing wrong with that. If people on the client wikis think this is
sufficient, and the {{#property}} parser function does not need to support
"named" access to properties, that would be fine with me. So far, I assumed
that
it would be very annoying to be forced to rely on IDs when using {{#property}}.
But if that is fine with everybody, that's fine with me - supporting only P-ids
there is much simpler than allowing access via labels or aliases.
Accessing only via the property's ID isn't enough.
Folks, we want more usage of Wikidata on the Wikipedias and other
sister projects. There'll be a few bullets we have to bite to make
this happen. I am convinced this is one of them.
Cheers
