Hi both,

Thank you very much for your support and references. It actually looks like it's possible to configure string limits but I'll post the question on the wikidata-tech list to make sure I don't make any mistakes.

Thanks again and all the best,

Claudio

Hi Claudio et al.,

Karsten is right that in general you might be more likely to get your
questions about Wikidata/Wikibase answered (or answered more quickly)
on the wikidata-tech list.

I think that you should be able to configure these limits but I'm
unsure off the top of my head what the upper-bound might be. The
documentation for the string length limits can be seen in the "string
limits" section of the Wikibase Options documentation. [1]. I think
you're interested in changing 'multilang'.

Hopefully that helps.

Cheers!
Tom

Hi Claudio,

sometimes one can only do a guess. ;) I was wondering about the String
datatype though.

Hmm, I ran into this issue on Wikidata too but did not investigate if it
was a configuration or a datatype issue though I very much suspect the
latter. In the end just did not add the info I had which was ....

Anyhow, there is also a dedicated Wikibase mailing list which should get
your question to the right spot: [2].

Cheers

Thank you very much for your answer Karsten

Actually, what we are using is the Wikibase extension of MediaWiki.
The link to the website is https://wiki.eagle-network.eu/ and the
Properties I mentioned are used to store the translations of the text
of the epigraphs, see eg.
https://wiki.eagle-network.eu/wiki/Item:Q9529. These fields appear to
have a length limit of 400 characters (the type is String).

Do you have any suggestions on how I can check if this can be changed?

Thank you very much!

There is a mailing list for Semantic MediaWiki. See here: [1]

Dear MediaWiki users,

Nice to meet you. I have a simple question... In my MediaWiki instance
I have a set of Properties whose data type is String. As far as I have
seen, it is not possible to add text longer than 400 characters for
this property. Is there any way to increase that limit?

Thank you very much!

Claudio
