Extension:Page Forms/fr

Semantic Forms (pour formulaire sémantique) est une extension de MediaWiki que permet à l'utilisateur d'ajouter, éditer et consulter des données à l'aide de formulaires. Il a été créé à l'origine comme un rejet de l'extension, pour pouvoir éditer des modèles qui stockent leurs paramètres via SMW, c'est pourquoi il a "Semantic" dans son nom. Cependant, il peut maintenant fonctionner avec l'extension alternative, ou sans extension installée.

Very simply, Semantic Forms allows you to have forms for creating and editing pages on your wiki, as well as for querying data, all without any programming. Forms can be created and edited not just by administrators, but by users themselves.

The main components of Semantic Forms functionality are form definition pages, which exist in a separate namespace, 'Form:'. These are pages consisting of markup code which gets parsed when a user goes to a form. Since forms are defined strictly through these definition pages, users can themselves create and edit forms, without the need for any actual programming.

The Semantic Forms extension is mostly used to add and edit calls to infobox-style templates within pages. A form allows a user to populate a pre-defined set of templates, as well as page sections, for any page; if Cargo or Semantic MediaWiki are used, the data within the templates can then be stored and queried.

Forms can also be used to edit the data in an existing page, and you can enable an "" tab to show up on any page.

Semantic Forms also supports autocompletion of fields, so users can easily see what the previously-entered values were for a given field. This greatly helps to avoid issues of naming ambiguity, spelling, etc.

Data in a page that doesn't fit into the form, like a free-form text description of the page's subject, isn't ignored when the page is edited with a form; rather, it is placed into a separate input box called "free text".

Semantic Forms also includes a wide variety of other functionality related to forms.
