Projects and organisations supporting SMW[уреди]

The Open Semantic Data Association, which has existed since August 2011, provides some financial and logistical support for Semantic MediaWiki, although it is not involved in coordinating the software's development.

The MediaWiki Stakeholder's Group has supported the organization of SMWCons since 2020.

Semantic MediaWiki core development was previously funded in part by the Institut AIFB of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany.

Specific development tasks have been carried out in a number of research and industry-based projects:

  • European Union projects partly supporting further development of SMW include:
    • ACTIVE – Enabling the Knowledge Powered Enterprise (finished)
    • NeOn – Lifecycle Support for Networked Ontologies (finished)
    • SEKT – Semantically Enabled Knowledge Technologies (finished)
  • DocCheck GmbH supported the first prototype development.
  • HP Labs Palo Alto
  • Milprog AG, Switzerland
  • Ontoprise GmbH supported SMW in the context of Project Halo, funded by Vulcan Inc.
  • WikiWorks has developed, and maintains, a number of SMW-based extensions

Credits to other software projects[уреди]

  • Naturally, Semantic MediaWiki is part of the MediaWiki project. Technical infrastructure and development support for MediaWiki is provided by the Wikimedia Foundation and a very large number of contributors and supporters.
  • Semantic MediaWiki makes use of code libraries developed for Wikidata, a project run by Wikimedia Deutschland.
  • Semantic MediaWiki uses the jQuery and jQuery UI Javascript libraries, which are included within MediaWiki. See also this page on plug-ins used by Semantic MediaWiki and related extensions.
  • Many people have contributed to the project by providing helpful comments and suggestions. Among them are many people on the project mailing lists, and, previously, the members of the Semantic Wiki Interest Group and a number of anonymous reviewers. Thanks a lot!
