Carlb added a comment. WikiID is useful internally, within that one MediaWiki instance, as it's unique within one database server. It's not useful to an external process (such as interwikidata.py) which has no direct connection to the SQL database. It looks best, for this application, to

Dvorapa added a comment. So it seems Pywikibot has no option to get GlobalID? Then the only option is to presume it is same as wikiID and allow users to specify it (rewrite it) in the family file. What's wikiID good for anyway? TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T222021 EMAIL P

[Pywikipedia-bugs] [Maniphest] [Commented On] T222021: pywikibot's interwikidata.py can't handle projects where the API-reported wikiID differs from the project's globalID

Carlb added a comment. Yes. Pywikibot blindly trusts that whatever wikiID is supplied by the remote wiki's API is indeed going to exactly match the GlobalID. That may well be true at WMF, but a third-party wiki could be naming their local server's databases just about anything. TASK DET

Carlb added a comment. The GlobalID is the name of the wiki, as it appears in Wikidata. For instance, "enwiki" is the English-language Wikipedia. A Wikidata entry with the individual GlobalID for each wiki looks like https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2736 Wikipedia (204 entries):
