Re: [Wikidata] Looking for list article editors

Dear Lydia,

You can contact me. I'm on project of language, ethnicity, and also
administrative division in Indonesia.
I usually import the data from the idwiki into Wikidata using PetScan too.

Hoi,
I have been really active on lists with awards.. I would love it when these
are available from Wikidata. If you care to pick my brain I am there for
you.
Thanks,

[Wikidata] user script to show Wikidata changes in article history

[Lydia Pintscher]

Hey folks :)

H4stings has created a user script to show Wikidata changes in the history
of a Wikipedia article. (It should also work on the other sister projects.)
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T42358#2363346
The script is at
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:H4stings/wef-history.js
I'd love to hear your feedback on it so we can see if that is a direction
we should explore further.

Cheers
Lydia

[Wikidata] Looking for list article editors

[Lydia Pintscher]

Hey folks :)

We're starting concept work for automated list generation on Wikipedia and
the other Wikimedia projects based on queries to Wikidata. As a first step
I'd like to get a better understanding of the current state of things. For
this Jan (our UX person) and me would like to have a chat with a few
editors from different Wikipedias and other Wikimedia projects who are
maintaining list articles. If that is you or you know someone who fits
please let me know.

[Wikidata] user script for finding items with the same statement

[Lydia Pintscher]

Hey :)

Amir has written a very nice little user script that adds a little icon
next to a statement. Clicking on it leads you to a query for items with the
same statement. So if you are on an item about a cat you can click it on
the "instance of" statement and then find all other cats. More details
here:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat#Do_you_want_to_see_statements_like_this.3F
Please
also leave feedback there. If you like it it can be turned into a gadget
later. (I don't think it is a good idea to put it in the default UI at this
point.)

[Wikidata] language fallbacks on Wikipedia and co

[Lydia Pintscher]

Hey folks :)

With the rollout of the ArticlePlaceholder one issue became very apparent:
language fallbacks for them are needed - especially on the small languages
- because otherwise you'll see a lot of Qs and Ps... We should have made
this possible a long time ago but now with the ArticlePlaceholder it became
more urgent. So starting in the next days you will see more fallbacks
happening in Lua and the property parser function on Wikipedia and the
other Wikimedia projects using Wikidata data. It will use the usual
MediaWiki fallback. It might need a purge for some pages initially to
actually show up.
If you see any problems popping up with this please let me know about it.

The StrepHit pipeline (codebase) is ready, while the project is ongoing.
We are not there yet, and will publish performance values in the final 
report.


This is a very ambitious project covering a very large technical
territory (which I applaud).  It would be great if your results could be
synthesized a bit more clearly so we can understand where the
weak/strong points are and where we might be able to help improve or
make use of what you have done in other domains.

Sure, this will be done in the final report.
Up to now, you can have a look at the midpoint report summary:

I will take care of it with Denny in the next days.


Repasting part of a previous message with the list of requirements:

A. a developer to understand the back-end code [1], written in C++;
B. a developer to understand the front-end code [2], written in Javascript;
C. access to the WMF Labs machine to deploy the back-end [3];
D. a Wikidata administrator to deploy the front-end [4];
E. centralized and exhaustive documentation.

As part of the StrepHit project goals [5], my team is striving to help 
with A. (not exactly trivial) and C., but we really need B. and D. to be 
effective.


Best,

Marco

Hi Tom,

Marco - Centralizing the discussion is good, but why not pick one of the
three existing channels (issue tracker, project page, this mailing list)

The RFC is meant to put together low-level technical problems (issue

discussions (mailing list).

*And* comments on the uploaded datasets.

As much as I love playing and
watching soccer, I'm much more interested in the vast trove of
identifiers and other curated information in Freebase than I am in
improving Wikidata's soccer coverage, but the Primary Sources tool could
be useful for some portions of the Freebase data, if it could be usable.
I guess you are referring to the StrepHit prototype dataset 
'strephit-soccer'.
Why don't you try the 'strephit-testing' one? It deals with biographies 
and has much broader coverage.
