We can now embed interactive SVGs in wiki.
# jQuery Graphviz
This is a nice simple javascript package that let's us interact with svg's - github 
Take a look at pretty-wiki to see how we might want to use such a map in the background - pretty_wiki.html
# Things we can do
SVG has a number of advantages - unige.ch
* it scales for responsive design
* fits in with general graphic tool chains
* takes up minimal file size for complex maps
On the other hand testing has shown it is not as fast for large graphs as canvas based solutions such as cytoscape.
Canvas can provide improved rendering performance and scalability: often 2-10x faster than SVG for full-component redraws (though such comparisons require nuance).
While you can use a reference to an svg file with the element:
Emdedding svg markup directly in html, or using the object element does not work unfortunately.
We can also drag and drop svg files onto the image tag. However Svg Links do not work.
This embedded svg file contains an xlink:href element. Unfortunately the link does not work - w3.org
This interactive examples for instance works in plain html but not Fedwiki - file 
That prevent complex interactive maps (like below) being made using single robust standardised svg files:
The HTML Sanitization that the About HTML Plugin performs removes the markup required to provide Internal Fedwiki Links.
