Dear Felix Obenauer,
I'm not sure if you're still working on this, although suggests that you were at least in the process of updating the extension last year. Anyway, let me begin by saying that this extension is a wonderful idea that more users should learn about (I wasn't aware of it mself) and by thanking you for your efforts. I'm afraid it doesn't work on my MW installation, possibly as a result of more recent changes to SMW. Here are my comments so far based on SIA 0.5 with SMW 1.9.2 and SF 2.7:
- Currently, there's only one form for any type of image, whether it's a photo of a building, a group of people, a landscape, or a painting, a manuscript, an early map, etc. It would be more logical to allow for different usages through SF's "Page has default form" (or otherwise an equivalent unique to SIA).
- The image cannot be seen when the form pop ups, which makes it difficult, for instance, to transcribe a selection of text.
- If you cancel the form, the extension still automatically creates an empty, unused page in the SIA namespace.
- About the queries
- Queries unfortunately produce an error, "Some subquery has no valid condition", so I don't know what the result looks like.
- It may be a minor thing, but wouldn't it be wiser to use a syntax that conforms to result formats, thats's to say, a pipe before the "format=imageannotation"
Please let us know if you intend to work on this.
