Subjects hold your structured data. A page can have multiple. See the Data tab. Example: Rijksmuseum
Special:Schemas. Every Subject is shaped by a Schema. View or manage Schemas via this list page.
Special:Layouts. Customize the presentation of Subjects via Layouts. Example usage: Subject views.

-NeoWiki turns your wiki into a collaborative graph database by letting you store and query structured information.
-Information is stored in versioned document form inside wiki pages. The latest version is also stored in
-graph databases, via which it can be queried.
-NeoWiki is in the experimental proof-of-concept phase. It is not production-ready, public interfaces will change,
-big structural changes will happen, and key functionality is still missing.
-This demo exists to gather feedback to inform further development.
-You can find [https://github.com/ProfessionalWiki/NeoWiki/tree/master/docs technical documentation] in the
-[https://github.com/ProfessionalWiki/NeoWiki NeoWiki git repository]. You can also

-== Discover NeoWiki Step by Step ==
+== Explore by use case ==
-Terminology is explained in [https://github.com/ProfessionalWiki/NeoWiki/blob/master/docs/Glossary.md the glossary].
-'''As a reader:'''
-* View a Subject: [[Professional Wiki]]
-* View a Schema: [[Schema:Company]]
-'''As an editor:'''
-* Edit a Subject: [[Professional Wiki]] (login required)
-* Edit a Schema: either via a Subject using it, i.e. [[Professional Wiki]], or directly on the Schema page, i.e. [[Schema:Company]]
-* Create a Subject: Create a new page with any content and click "Create subject". That button is there just for the PoC.
-'''As a developer:'''
-* View Subject JSON: [[Special:NeoJson/ACME_Inc]] (developer UI, normal users will not see JSON. [https://github.com/ProfessionalWiki/NeoWiki/blob/master/docs/SubjectFormat.md View docs])
-* Query the graph database: [[Cypher|Cypher raw example]]
-* Read values in wikitext: [[Value parser function]]
-* Read values in Lua: [[Lua Data Access]]
-* [[#REST_API_endpoints|Explore the REST API]]
-== European Museums ==
