Queried property values

Wrong separator

result

David Bowie

→ This does not work since the separator is "," while you need a "||" as separator. Thus you get nothing in return:

000003
000023
000078
000126

<ul><li>The part "|David Bowie" of the query was not understood.Results might not be as expected.</li> <!--br--><li>The part "]]" of the query was not understood.Results might not be as expected.</li></ul>

Correct separator

Syntax using #ask without specifying a result format

Note the difference between the "list" and the "plainlist" format

#ask defaults to the "list" format.

{{#ask: [[Under Pressure]] |?Is performer |headers=hide |link=none |mainlabel=- |valuesep={{!!}} }}

result

David Bowie

syntax

{{#ask:
 [[Category:Song]]
 [[Is performer::{{#ask: [[Under Pressure]] |?Is performer |headers=hide |link=none |mainlabel=- |valuesep={{!!}} }}]]
 |format=broadtable
}}

result

→ This does not work since the "list" format adds extra formatting to the resulting data values. Specify the "plainlist" format for best results.
