Re: [Wikidata-l] labels for Wikidata items

2013-10-18 Thread Lukas Benedix
Hi,

I had a discussion on sunday in the IRC about a related topic.

I was wondering where the HTML-title comes from. There is some language
fallback mechanism. (I'm not sure where the title comes from, maybe from
the labels only or the linked wikipedia articles.)

My suggestion is to take this title and paste it into the label input
box. When a user goes to a site with no label in his language, he can
see the fallback title and save it, if it is correct. I'm not talking
about writing fallback labels into the db automatically, just make it
easy for people to validate and save this fallback labels.

Instead of an allmost empty page like:
http://lbenedix.monoceres.uberspace.de/screenshots/k6cxo00uzl_2013-10-18_13.48.56.png

He would see something like:
http://lbenedix.monoceres.uberspace.de/screenshots/5j2n4e86ox_2013-10-18_13.50.25.png

One problem with this could be that only one thing (link or statement)
can be edited at one time in wikidata right now. The other things should
not be deactivated for the label fallback mechanism.

Another problem is, that a lot of Wikidata items have different names in
different languages, but for persons this should work for  90%.

 Hoi,

 Is there a bot to add labels to Wikidata ?

 It seems that the majority of the Wikidata items have only one label.
 To be useful, to be available to search, it is imperative that a label
 exists. The obvious value is the name of the Wikipedia article. It is
 better to have that as a label than no label..

 Is there a bot that will populate Wikidata based on the existing
 interwiki links and, is it possible to have the name of a new article
 added as a label when a new Wikipedia article is added as an interwiki
 link?

 Thanks,
  Gerard

Re: [Wikidata-l] labels for Wikidata items

2013-10-18 Thread Jan Dudík
[[d:User:Reza1615/BOT/new_interwiki.py]] can add labels for all linked
languages, now only with exception of no/nb.

But this bot is designed for work from some wiki, not from wikidata.
Maye there is somebody who can adapt this bot?

Re: [Wikidata-l] Statistics

 Hoi,

 I do not know if you have seen the statistics compiled by Magnus [1]. They
 are up to date and useful.

 I blogged about it [2]. As far as I am concerned, the biggest challenge we
 face is the lack of labels. Given that 280+ languages are represented in
 Wikidata it clearly demonstrates that Wikidata is useless as it is for most
 languages. Please tell me that I am wrong and explain why.

This is correct to a certain degree. However we have language
fallbacks on the roadmap which will significantly help improve the
situation. Liangent has put a lot of effort into this over the summer
during Google Summer of Code. The other thing is that there is clearly
a number of items which are more used than others. My theory is that
they are also the ones that are more complete. If there is no label in
a small language for a very obscure item than this is less bad as when
there is none for a much-used item. Not all items are created equal.
We should keep that in mind when interpreting statistics.


Cheers
Lydia
