Documentation TODO list
To follow is list of considerations for improving Protege 4 itself, Protege 4 documentation, and this wiki.
- Convert A Practical Guide Guide to Building Ontologies... to a collection of Wiki pages so that the guide can be more easily shared, searched, modified, commented on, referenced by section, extended, etc.
Protege-OWL Editor
Protege-OWL FAQ
We have put together a wiki page to answer the most commonly asked questions about the 4.x series of the Protege application:
Getting started / tutorials
- Getting started with the Protege-OWL editor - a short guide to the interface
- Pizzas in 10 minutes: A demo of modeling shortcuts - a quickstart guide to creating your first OWL ontology
- A Practical Guide to Building OWL Ontologies using Protege 4 and CO-ODE Tools - a substantial guide to OWL and ontology engineering
- Cody Burleson's screencast version of the tutorial listed directly above (it would be great if he got some encouragement for part 6).
Editor features
- Overview of features - a quick summary of the editor
- P4 views guide - a list of all of the default views that are distributed with P4
- P4 menu guide - all of the default menus explained in detail (with keyboard shortcuts)
- P4 preferences guide - customising P4 to your needs
- Naming and rendering of entities - a note on naming things in OWL and configuring P4 to support your naming conventions

Further setup / configuration
Plugins
Finding plug-ins
- From build 104 P4 will find plugins and updates for you. See our Auto Update page.
- Plugins for Protege 4.x OWL editor - the list of "Compatible Plugins" on this page is the result of a semantic query that gathers all plug-ins that have declared themselves compatible with the 4.x version of the Protege-OWL editor.
- CO-ODE Protege 4.x Plugins - the CO-ODE group at the University of Manchester is the biggest contributor of plug-ins to the Protege-OWL editor. This is a good place to go to download early releases and source code for CO-ODE developed plug-ins.
