Hey Aaron,

That looks suspiciously like a query search (http://foswiki.org/System/QuerySearch) which isn't available in the current version of UMWiki. In the current version you'd have to do something like

%METASEARCH{type="field" name="Requester" value="%WIKIUSERNAME%" format="$percntMETASEARCH{type=$quotform$quot name=$quotRequestStatus$quot value=$quotBuilding$quot}$percnt"}%

We are still working on migrating UMWiki to a newer version of the underlying wiki software, but have learned our lesson about announcing any kind of ship date before it's ready to roll.

Hope this helps,
