[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] T357378: disambiguate homonymous item/property mentions in display of Wikidata statements
BlaueBluete created this task. BlaueBluete added a project: Wikidata. Restricted Application added a subscriber: Aklapper. TASK DESCRIPTION **Feature summary**: Currently-homonymous links to disparate properties or items (caused by identically labeled properties or items) should be disambiguated within the scope of a Wikidata property or item page, for example by adding the description to the link text, potentially in parenthesis or in a smaller font, or, if that is unavailable or also homonymous, the P or Q number. See mockup using the description to disambiguate: F41875337: image.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F41875337> **Use case(s)**: When viewing a Wikidata item or property, mentions of properties and items (e.g., as appearing as the predicates or objects of statements) usually appear as a link to the respective Wikidata property or item, with the link text being the label of the respective property or item in the current user-interface language (if such a label exists, otherwise the respective P or Q number). This leads to confusion in the case of links to homonymous properties (which, to my knowledge, //currently// do not exist) or items (which do exist, cf. figure below, taken from Q117083783 <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q117083783?uselang=de>, in which the two homonymous items can only be distinguished by the link tooltips). F41875216: image.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F41875216> **Benefits** (why should this be implemented?): The fact that identically-labeled links in the Wikidata UI do not target the same property or item is often not on editors’ radar. It is particularly hard to detect on platforms where tooltips are unavailable (e.g., mobile). Implementing such a feature should reduce erroneous edits arising from lack of awareness or confusion over homonymous property and item mentions.

[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] [Updated] T173035: Adapt the suggestion to preferred languages
BlaueBluete added a comment. It would seem that the suggester now searches labels in all languages, but when searching by item ID (Q…), if there is no label for the UI language, there is still no fallback to any of the user’s other languages. While this might be difficult to implement (requiring analysis of Babel boxes or the like), an easier intermediate solution might be to fall back to official name (P1448) of the suggested item.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T173035EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: BlaueBlueteCc: Nikki, matej_suchanek, Izno, Lydia_Pintscher, daniel, Aklapper, BlaueBluete, Lea_Lacroix_WMDE, PokestarFan, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Mbch331___ Wikidata-bugs mailing list Wikidata-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-bugs

It would be great if the display of the label and description could be adapted depending on the babel boxes of the user. Then, if the description doesn't exist in my language, it can be displayed in my second language, or the third, etcTASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T173035EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: BlaueBlueteCc: Nikki, matej_suchanek, Izno, Lydia_Pintscher, daniel, Aklapper, BlaueBluete, Lea_Lacroix_WMDE, PokestarFan, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Mbch331___

CHANGES TO TASK DESCRIPTIONWhen looking for a value, the suggester displays label and description in the language of the user interface. When several labels are identical, and the descriptions doesn't exist in the user'sselected user-interface language, it is difficult for the user to choose which item to use.
In some other cases, the item doesn't show up at all in the list.
