added clarification to the last part of the How to use properties section
To use a semantic property in the text outside of the infobox, you type <code><nowiki>[[property_name::value]]</nowiki></code> anywhere you want to assign a property to the <code>value</code>. For example, you are writing about the history of a virtual reality device. You want to semantically indicate, that the year the device was first manufactured is the year of 2015. You take a look at the raw text, find the number of the year and from just <code>2015</code> you change it to <code><nowiki>[[Manufactured in::2015]]</nowiki></code>. The text will remain the same, but you successfully assigned the year 2015 a semantic property and the device is now searchable by the year it was manufactured in.
When you are creating a new semantic property, try to make it form a sentence. This is the strength of semantic search, because you can now search and filter the properties by using natural language. Using the above example, you should type <code>Manufactured in:</code> instead of something like <code>Manufacture date:</code>.
