First results of the investigation, regarding WikibaseManifest information on
Federated Properties enabled Wikibases:
- the Manifest should include some notion of the repo's entity sources in
order to be useful for both Wikimedia Commons (mediainfo) and third-party
Wikibases with Federated Properties
- on Wikimedia commons, the entity sources for Items, Properties and
Lexemes would be wikidata.org
- on third-party Wikibases with Federated Properties enabled, the entity
source for properties would be the federation source repo
- an example for the configuration of entity sources can be found in the
Federated Properties documentation
<https://doc.wikimedia.org/Wikibase/master/php/md_docs_components_repo-federated-properties.html#autotoc_md98>
- RDF prefixes could also be included in WikibaseManifest, as described in
that Federated Properties document
- a section such as [[
https://github.com/wmde/WikibaseManifest/blob/master/docs/examples/docker-default.json#L30
| `entities` in the prototype examples ]] may be a good place to include
entity source information
- other than that, the WikibaseManifest should //not// include any info that
is specific to the Federated Properties feature, such as
`fedearatedPropertiesEnabled: true/false` or
`federatedPropertiesSourceScriptUrl`
Additionally, a third-party Wikibase with Federated Properties enabled could
not only be a provider, but also the consumer of WikibaseManifest, when reading
it from its federation source repo. This way, settings such as `rootScriptUrl`
and wiki namespace IDs could be taken from the Manifest instead of having to
configure them manually in LocalSettings.php. However, at the moment Federated
Properties repos are using their local namespace id for properties, instead of
the federation source's property namespace id. Also, as long as
WikibaseManifest is an extension and not reliably part of Wikibase core, it is
of limited use for Federated Properties enabled third-party Wikibases.
