Searching for pages using Semantic Properties

 * The Semantic coding can be likened to an SQL, however it is only for Wiki’s.
 * To illustrate: let’s say that you want to make sure that there is a page entitled "Alabama Cemeteries."
 * 1) Create a property which we will name: “has cemeteries.”
 * 2) Put this property in this semantic coding:
 * 3) After the equal sign is the Alabama page we are looking for.
 * 4) Next save this coding to a page.
 * 5) Click on “Browse properties” at the bottom of the left side menu on the page where you saved this semantic coding.
 * 6) A two column table will appear.
 * 1) A two column table will appear.
 * The left column will be the property you are looking for, in this case “has Cemeteries.”
 * The right side you will see a link to a page title, in this case “Alabama Cemeteries.”
 * The link will be either in blue or red.
 * If the link to the page is blue, the page exists, however, if the link is red the page does not exist.
 * Now, granted you can do the same thing with fewer steps by a simple search looking for "Alabama Cemeteries," but you can only search for one page at a time.
 * But let's suppose that you want to make sure all the states have a page on cemeteries. This is where Semantic Wiki shows its power.
 * With a pipe symbol “|” separating each page you are looking for, you can search to see if each state has a page on cemeteries with only one inquiry.
 * Here is an example:
 * Notice each state is separated by a “|” pipe. You can add an unlimited amount of pages to search.
 * In this example for cemeteries, maybe 47 states have a page on cemeteries but three states do not.
 * This you found out in one inquiry rather than search for each of them one at a time.
 * Again, Semantic coding allows you to search for any number of pages at once with a certain property.
