Admin:Race Results System Documentation

This documentation provides an overview of the race results system implemented in Semantic MediaWiki, focusing on how to publish and display results for events and vehicles. The system may not make complete sense, as the language is horrible, and it was mostly written by ChatGPT.

Publishing Race Results

To publish results for a new event, create a new event page.

To add results, use the RaceResult template within the event page. Here’s how you would structure the data:

==Results==
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=ACDC|driver=Vince|position=1|class=Full Size - Piloted}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Death Machine|driver=Brian, Tom, Bill|position=2|class=Full Size - Piloted}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=CYBR TRK|driver=Chris|position=3|class=Full Size - Piloted}}

{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Fish Stick|driver=William Woodward & team|position=1|class=Robotics - A4 Autonomous}}

{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Hammer Mouse|driver=Neil|position=1|class=Moxie}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Chugga Boom|driver=@PiDrogen|position=1|class=Moxie}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=CYBR TRK|driver=Chris|position=2|class=Moxie}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Babe|driver=Neil|position=2|class=Moxie}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Bigger Trak|driver=Leo|position=3|class=Moxie}}

{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Hammer Mouse|driver=Neil|position=1|class=Overall}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=CYBR TRK|driver=Chris|position=2|class=Overall}}
{{PublishRaceResult|vehicle=Bigger Trak|driver=Leo|position=3|class=Overall}}

{{EventResultsTable}}

You can repeat the {{PublishRaceResult}} call for each result you want to enter for that event. Multiple classes and ties are allowed.

To display results associated with a specific event, call {{EventResultsTable}}

Vehicle Page

To display results associated with a specific vehicle, use the following query format on the vehicle's page:

==Race Results==
{{VehicleResults}}

Properties

How to add new classes?

Property	Description
Property:Has vehicle	The name of the vehicle that participated in the race.
Property:Has driver	The name of the driver of the vehicle.
Property:Has position	The finishing position of the vehicle in the race (e.g., 1, 2, 3).
Property:Has class	The class category in which the vehicle competed (e.g., Full Size - Piloted, Moxie, Overall).
Property:Event	Links the results to the specific event page where the results are recorded.

Templates

Note: templates in SMW are more like subroutines/functions than an actual template. These are essentially subroutines/functions.

• Template:PublishRaceResult
• Template:EventResultsTable
• Template:VehicleResultsTable
