⌘⌘ WikiSon
WikiSon = Wiki Simple Object Notation
Books
{{ Book | Lord of the Rings | 0261102389 }}
is a valid WikiSon sample for the Three Book Set Edition of the Book with the title "Lord of the Rings" by John R. R. Tolkien which happens to have the ISBN-10 number 0261102389.
⌘⌘ WikiSon - just a Template?
Yes!
No - it has got a much nicer name and WikiSon Notation is simpler to remember! You started with the Topic {{Book If your parameters only contain id information
- human readable like a book title
- or computer readable like an ISDN number
then you just specified a link
If your parameters contain semantic content than you just specified a Wiki Object in WikiSon.
⌘⌘ SiDIF
Simple Data Interchange Format (SiDIF)
helps understanding the Triple concept and can actually be used for quite a few real-life problems.
