multiline text in semantic mediawiki subobjects

Is it possible to assign a multiline text value in a semantic mediawiki subobject ? I'd like to do something like

{{#subobject:
|multiline=line1
a list on line 2:
*list item 1 on line3
*list item 2 on line4
|foo=bar
}}

setting multiline texts for ordinary objects works with

[[multiline1::<br>
list
*item 1
*item 2]]

I wonder if it's possible for subobjects as I would like to attach multiline notes for to do subobjects

Solution

  • Your example is:

    {{#subobject:
|multiline=line1
a list on line 2:
*list item 1 on line3
*list item 2 on line4
|foo=bar
}}

    This will give an error message that the multi line content "line1..." can not be used as a page title. This is because the default property type is page. You need to change the property type via special page [[Property:multiline]] See http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:List_of_datatypes e.g. http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Property:SomeProperty has the type text, which is declared via 

    [[Has type::Text]]

    So you might want to do the same for your multiline property. The following query shows the wanted result:

    {{#ask:
[[foo::+]]
|?multiline
|?foo
}}
