This site makes use of the standard extension, [https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_MediaWiki Semantic MediaWiki]. This extension allows us to set one or more [https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Properties_and_types properties] on unique wiki pages. These properties can then be queried within other pages and the results can be dynamically displayed in a variety of [https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Result_formats result formats]. The main benefit is that a lot of entries can be auto-generated to allow easy navigation of the site as the site develops and evolves. The editors can add new pages, attach properties to those pages, and then have those pages automatically show up on other pages. This saves the editors from having to maintain a variety of lists on multiple pages.
