I think this means we need Scribunto installed for the infobox template to work... Robin (talk) 17:38, 22 December 2013 (GMT)

It does. I spent ages trying to get the necessary server dependencies up to the required releases. I guess I'll have another go as and when since there have been lots of OS component u/grades since - but haven't the inclination right now. Same applies to removing all those problem properties. I need to psych myself up for jobs like that first --Peter P (talk) 17:55, 22 December 2013 (GMT)

I've had another look at Scribunto. I'm not confident about getting it working any time soon. I think we would be better developing all new templates with SMW and foregoing the WP compatibility on infoboxes. They are generally vastly over complex for WS purposes anyway IMO. I'm happy to leave pages with the Scributo required 'Cite' templates as they are. If a Scribunto miracle happens they will just start working. Otherwise I don't think its much of a loss as is. I'll try to contribute a bit on the 'person' template if you're happy with this because there are lots of pages where it is needed. I'm also warming to the idea of separate namespaces because I feel that trying to maintain extensive WP compatibility whilst majoring on SMW is so much wasted effort --Peter P (talk) 16:39, 6 January 2014 (GMT)
