Semantic Breadcrumb Links (a.k.a. SBL) is a Semantic Mediawiki extension to aid in-page navigation by building breadcrumb links from an attributive property filter.
SBL uses a pattern match strategy to filter property usage (e.g. Has parent page)
that ascribe the location of a page relative to its parent and provides navigational help by
generating a breadcrumb trail.
