Re: [Wikidata-l] Pseudo-empty items
I hope these are transitional problems only. In this case there was only one language, so fallback was not really relevant (the item has been deleted since). But it woul dreally be strange if the text disappeared upon adding the second language version. Perhaps it would be a solution to display them in chronological order until fallback is established. Gadgets are great, but I hope to see basic functions in the core. -- Bináris ___ Wikidata-l mailing list Wikidata-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-l

That's because unfortunately we don't have fallbacks yet. When we have that you'd see some other language at least if there is nothing in your own. See https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36430 for the status/discussion. > Why do I not see descriptions in every language, only in my chosen one? Again see above. > Why can I edit description only in my chosen language? Switch the language and you can edit the others. Not ideal but that's how it is atm. > Or do I do soemthing wrong?

[Wikidata-l] Pseudo-empty items
Hi folks, have a look at https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q49382&rcid=449383&setlang=hu This item has a German label with no link and nothing else. My question is not if it is useful or not (this is up to the community) but why do I see it completely empty when I set a language other than German? Why do I not see descriptions in every language, only in my chosen one? Why can I edit description only in my chosen language? Or do I do soemthing wrong? -- Bináris ___ Wikidata-l mailing list Wikidata-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-l
