This is a documentation subpage for Template:Concept scheme (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This is the "Concept scheme" template. For those schemes see category: skos:ConceptScheme.

Usage

It should be called in the following format:

{{Concept scheme
|title=
|description=
|notes=
|creators=
|contributors=
|preferred namespace prefix=
|preferred namespace uri=
}}

Background /Technical documentation

It is a concept scheme that has an expert group that together takes responsibility for the collection of terms. Within a scheme concepts may further be organized into collections. Collections never have independent authorship. Scheme is like a publication, collection may be like subheadings within a publication.
