LOM Support for Wikis

1 Initial Problem

Currently, not every type of object in ILIAS can carry LOM. Among the objects not supporting LOM at the moment is the Wiki.

2 Conceptual Summary

Support for LOM is added to the Wiki.

3 User Interface Modifications

3.1 List of Affected Views

  • Wiki > Metadata

3.2 User Interface Details

Wikis will have a tab 'Metadata' with subtab 'LOM', which will always be shown. Like for all other LOM-enabled objects, the subtab 'LOM' contains the quick edit form for the object's LOM, as well as a button leading to the full LOM editor (see Moving LOM Metadata Editor to Kitchensink for details).

3.3 New User Interface Concepts

No new UI concepts required.

3.4 Accessibility Implications

No known accessibility implications.

4 Additional Information

4.1 Involved Authorities

If this request is related to multiple components, please list both authorities for all related components.

4.2 Technical Aspects

As for all other objects, the LOM fields general > title and general > description will automatically be set to the Wiki's title and description and their respective languages (translations via Multilingualism excluded). No other LOM fields will be filled automatically.

The required infrastructure for this mechanism is already implemented in the Object service (see e.g. ilObject::createMetaData), and just has to be used in the Data Collection. For details, see here.

4.3 Privacy

No personal data is automatically stored in the LOM of Data Collections. For information about what personal data can be entered manually into the LOM of an object, see the privacy information of MetaData.

4.4 Security

No foreseeable security implications.
