This wiki heavily relies on Semantic MediaWiki, which does the following:

  • Provide annotation of the data like route numbers, destination, and rail connections)
  • Provide dynamic queries. Instead of typing the routes serving the station or a destination individually. Semantic MediaWiki allows queries that generate results dynamically, so that information can only be entered once.

For example, this code generate a list of buses serving Tamien Station:

{{#ask: [[Rail::Tamien Station]] [[Category:buses]]
| format=template| template=listlines2| link=none | ?rnum=| ?rlet=| ?to=
}}

This is the results:


Annotating

Annotating is simple:

[[Rail::Embarcadero Station]]

This would create a link and an annotation, which through the queries, will generate that a list of pages that have such annotation.

Annotation is available for various items.
