NPC/Dungeon/Lore Navigation Templates

Oh, I'm sorry, I misread. From Semantic page, "It is not possible to ask for all pages of a query that are not in a specific category". #ask: [[Category:!Removed Content]] actually looks for "!Removed Content" category.

Setting a property in Template:RemovedContent solves half the problem, say "Is Removed=True". Semantic wiki can not search for pages that do not have properties. Since normal dungeons do not have "Is Removed=False", the #ask query can not filter on that.

I'll look into a workaround. :/

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.
