[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] T334333: Add rel=me attribute to external identifier links on Wikidata items

[Legoktm]

Legoktm added a comment.


  I think there is a philosophical question of whether the Wikidata item or 
even Wikipedia page is actually "you" in the same sense that your personal 
website, GH profile, userpage, etc. are. My current feeling is that it isn't 
but I'm not really able to articulate why.
  
  In terms of structured metadata, I wonder if schema.org's sameAs 
 would be a better fit for these kinds of Wikidata 
properties than rel="me" (c.f. T198946: Add Schema property 'sameAs' pointing 
to Wikidata entries ).

[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] T334333: Add rel=me attribute to external identifier links on Wikidata items

  The sparse FAQ  about `rel="me"` 
made it sound like it’s purely about whether the two pages represent the same 
entity, but this documentation 
 does emphasize the need 
to make identity consolidation an opt-in, which the feature requested here 
definitely would not be. I’d be OK with closing this issue unless there’s some 
way to make the linking more nuanced.

  I'm not sure this is the best idea. `rel=me` implies some level of control 
over the linking page, which generally shouldn't be applied to a wiki page. 
#RealMe  requires userpage links 
to be listed in a user preference for that reason.

[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] T334333: Add rel=me attribute to external identifier links on Wikidata items

[mxn]

mxn created this task.
mxn added a project: Wikidata.
Restricted Application added a subscriber: Aklapper.

TASK DESCRIPTION
  **Feature summary**:
  
  A Wikidata item should have the `rel="me"` attribute on any link in an 
external identifier statement.
  
  **Use case(s)**:
  
  This would enable services to recognize that the Wikidata item represents the 
same entity as the linked external database record. For example, a notable user 
on Mastodon could add a verified link from their profile 
 to the Wikidata item about 
them. It is already possible for the Mastodon user to link to the Wikidata 
item, but Mastodon will only mark the link as “verified” if the item contains a 
`rel="me"` link back to the Mastodon profile. Mastodon will recognize the link 
back to the Mastodon profile in a Mastodon address (P4033) 
 statement.
  
  **Benefits** (why should this be implemented?):
  
  Wikidata’s identifier statements are useful as a hub for all the different 
records about an entity across the Web. Although Mastodon is a somewhat 
contrived example, other sites might use XFN’s `rel="me"` microformat to 
distinguish Wikidata’s authority control coverage from other external links.
  
  Unlike T322717  and T31968 
, this feature would be scoped to 
entities who satisfy Wikidata’s notability criteria 
, not necessarily 
Wikimedians (although there is some overlap 
).
