Re: [Wikidata] [wikicite-discuss] Re: Wikipedia Task Lists for Editathons using Wikidata

One place where Wikidata has been very good for task list automation has been biographies. See for example this automated list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Technology/Tasks/Wikidata_Missing_Article_Report Reports are these are made possible by the existence of thes

Erika, Nice to have you onboard as a fellow evangelist, contributor, and supporter! Many of us would be happy to help! Email is terrible and so a few of us are getting confused as to what your trying to accomplish. Please be patient and avoid slander. Thanks.. If you can explain the "it" that h

Re: [Wikidata] Using WD categories to mark items

Thanks for mansplaining agility management and Wikidata. Thanks so much. I was uneducated and now I know! I am a big evangelist of Wikidata, although I am definitely coming from the Wikipedia editing side. I am an active contributor and supporter. I don't get this siloed perspective of the pro

[Wikidata] Born/Died January 1

I've made a lot of good use of Wikidata for harvesting information about names in our database, including specific birth & death dates. But, when a specific date isn't known, & only a year is known, WD records that as January 1 of that year. I have to throw away any date that is January 1, as I can

Re: [Wikidata] Using WD categories to mark items

In Agile management...That effort is called a task. So your trying to categorize tasks...In wikidata? Hmm...thats not what wikidata is for. Please don't clutter Wikidata with those. Instead use other tools or phabricator. On Tue, Feb 7, 2017, 12:08 PM Brill Lyle wrote: > Hi Vladimir and Thad,

Re: [Wikidata] Using WD categories to mark items

Hi Vladimir and Thad, As to Thad's suggestion: I think this is a bad idea, as it ties Black Lunch Table to Visual artists of the African diaspora in a misleading way. These artists are not specifically Black Lunch Table artists -- they are part of the effort to address a diversity gap on the vari

Re: [Wikidata] Using WD categories to mark items

Think about the use case differently...and what your really trying to capture. To more properly allow flexible semantic relations for the Erika and heathart's use case as a best practice, you can just do the following: Just create the BLACK LUNCH TABLE item in Wikipedia with a good description an

Re: [Wikidata] Wikipedia Task Lists for Editathons using Wikidata

Hi Sandra/Spinster, Yes! This is exactly what I was envisioning. How does the query build this table -- and can it include stubs and other blue linked articles that still need development? Both blue and red links? I'm sorry I didn't take a more active part in the Community Wishlist Survey. I

Hi Vladimir Yikes. I'm glad to know as we are just starting to tag items. Is there another property that could be substituted instead on Wikidata? We need a category to constrain the items by a query -- to identify the subject as being part of the Black Lunch Table area of interest, which is V

Re: [Wikidata] Wikipedia Task Lists for Editathons using Wikidata
