BusinessWiki can be made more advanced and useful for various purposes through its extensions. Many of the available extensions are simple scripts to allow embedding content such as Adobe Flash files or HTML forms. Others add complex new behaviour to the wiki syntax, such as [[:Category:Semantic MediaWiki|Semantic MediaWiki]] which provides the ability to add structured and searchable relations and attributes to wiki pages (cf. semantic web). | BusinessWiki can be made more advanced and useful for various purposes through its [[:Category:MediaWiki extension|extensions]].
