NPC/Dungeon/Lore Navigation Templates

Sorry to bother you again. I'm not that good at Semantic Mediawiki coding. Is there a way/code to exclude certain dungeons from showing up in the list, like removed dungeons, with the inline queries?

Most definitely.

First, I want to know how is "Removed dungeons" labeled. If we can re-use, say a "removed" category, we should be able to #ask Semantics to filter. {{#ask: [[Category:!Removed Content]] }} If not, we need to create another property. Can you give me an example of removed content?

On the subject on improving the nav list, add |sort=Has dungeon entrance level requirement to your #ask, as shown in my EtchASketch. The Grand Flores list now matches the one on page "Category:Grand_Flores_dungeons" instead of alphabetical order.

Thanks for the reply.

The best example would be Time Gate. If the Removed Content filter is applied then Black Crusade, Tangled Time Gate, and Time Break should not appear.

What we could do is use Dynamic Page list to filter categories. {{#dpl: |category = Time Gate Dungeons |notcategory = Removed Content

Example. Downside is that we lose semantic properties, like sorting by lvl requirement.

If we can find a way to combine DPL with semantics, major changes to DFO wiki's list could be updated. Way back in 2016, we discussed on how should skill lists by displayed using DPL. With semantics, sorting by level should be a snap.

Although, now that I am thinking about it, do you happen to have any thoughts if we have "Removed Content" skills? IF not, we should move Template:ClassSkills into semantic wiki for better sorting.

I currently have no issues about Removed Content skills or any removed content for that matter.

Though, is it possible for the inline queries to detect Removed Content pages by using an #if statement? If so, could it output '(Removed)' after the page name to allow users to know beforehand? Ex. Arctic Booster (Removed).

Found a work around. Using set operations, we can perform a set difference to "subtract" <removed content> from <all results>.

Using this, (User:Dfoplayer/TestFilterRemovedContent) the code in your navigational table should look like { {User:Dfoplayer/TestFilterRemovedContent|catePara=Time Gate Dungeons|sortPara=Has dungeon entrance level requirement}}

I think this is a good start. If you like it, I'll a few more days to make it scalable to work with other templates. Navigation requires a single line list while the skills should be in a table format.

Looks good to me. Thanks for all your hard work. :)
