User:Dr ishmael/Nicholas the Traveler smw test

Main Page
Use a subtemplate to reformat the results of a single #ask query
 * Nicholas the Traveler:

Use a #var to store the name of the current location and display the individual data with #show queries
 * Nicholas the Traveler:   in

In either case, the wikitext of the main page wouldn't have to change - the changes would be made in the Nicholas template.

Item plurals
New problem with this paradigm: pluralizing the item names (stupid English with its stupidly random pluralization rules). Something like this could work.


 * First, get the singular item name, unlinked, to provide the actual page link...


 * ...then, get the item's plural form (stored as a property) for the link's display text.

This could even be used within the TravelerInfo template, so that the item parameter would take only the plain item name (instead of the piped-with-plural-form link that I implemented the pilot with).

DPL could be used with the way the pilot is now, but I'm thinking the template needs to change.
