Hey :)

I saw you added your talk page here to the newsletter. I fear the bot delivering it isn't yet set up for Wikidata. Can you change it to some other wiki maybe? Thanks! meta:Global message delivery/Targets/Wikidata --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk) 15:17, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Q9366[edit]

Re this edit, I'm not sure it's a valid comparison. Even though "Google" might be more frequently used to refer to the company, I think the search engine is more often called "Google" than "Google Search". Since labels don't need to be unique like Wikipedia titles, we could have both the company and the search engine labeled "Google", with the search engine also having "Google Search" as an alias. --Yair rand (talk) 10:26, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My link in the edit summary was wrong, correct is w:en:Talk:Google_Search#Requested_move. But "Google Search" is an official name of the search engine. And we have to use same names in the labels than en-wiki except text in brackets. But because en-wiki article name is not "Google (search engine)", I prefer Google Search. Btw, I agree that it's more often called "Google", but official name is "Google Search". --Stryn (talk) 10:52, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Re "And we have to use same names in the labels than en-wiki except text in brackets." What? That's not correct at all. --Yair rand (talk) 10:54, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry, I mean the brackets, or after the comma. --Stryn (talk) 10:56, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
...That's still not correct. Labels don't have the same requirements as article titles. There isn't any reason to make them the same. --Yair rand (talk) 10:59, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have an example where label is not/should not be the same as en-wiki's title (excluding text in brackets and after the comma)? --Stryn (talk) 11:06, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Q50868, Q13194, all items that aren't proper nouns, all items with extra disambiguating text at the end not in brackets... --Yair rand (talk) 11:13, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, now I understand better what you meant. But I think many users here don't know this (like me). Maybe we have to put this into guidelines. --Stryn (talk) 11:23, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Labels in Non-en issue[edit]

Dear Stryn,

I had been just checking the possible early mode of contributions to Wikidata from a non-en Wikipedia perspective. As I see, Wikidata has tremendous potential.(really so much that it could even change the way we all humans live in this world in a decade or so!) In fact, I have been personally, pondering this idea for a few years.

As I see it, "Create an item" should have some important change in its user interface sequence.

Instead of asking for a label first, it should initiate a form with a new ItemID (Like Q123456...) and then

  1. let the user add a language code;
  2. then a page name;
  3. Then (s)he could click an option to autocheck any interwiki names in other namespaces corresponding to this page name. If the option is checked, and if there are interwikis, those fields should be displayed and autopopulated. Even the label would be picked up. If a DataItem already exists with those links, user gets a choice to abandon the "new creation" and instead, update the pre-existing item withthe same label.
  4. Then appears the label and detail fields.
  5. If there is an en.wiki page name, that name could be used to autofill the label. (With an option to correct / replace by user's input if he so wishes.)
  6. If there are no direct Interwiki links, user could search for a 'possible' string at the en.wiki. A brief combo list should pop-up from which he may click and choose a link. (Reason: Many non-en Wikis may have equivalent pages, but the interwiki links are just not added by someone yet.)
  7. Once, the en interwiki is chosen, he may even go for another round of interwiki search to try and autopopulate more interwiki links.

This way, adding/updating items from non-en wikis will be much more easy, fast and user-friendly. This method will avoid the need of excessive typing as well as improper labels (i.e. in foreign languages)

Please let me know if this could be discussed and implemented. Thanks Viswaprabha (talk) 19:01, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree your opinions. You can talk about your wishes here: Wikidata:Project chat or if you want to take a contact to developing team: Wikidata:Contact the development team. I'm little bit busy today and tomorrow, so I can't think about this more, but thanks for your comment. --Stryn (talk) 19:35, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Willkommen[edit]

Hallo, vielen Dank für deinen Willkommensgruß. In der Tat habe ich nun Fragen:

  • Wenn ich es richtig sehe hast du "Empirische Sozialforschung" nun als Synonym definiert zu "Sozialwissenschaftliche Erhebung". Das halte ich inhaltlich für falsch.
  • Vielleicht verstehe ich aber auch falsch, wie dieses Projekt hier funktioniert. Eigentlich wollte ich analog zu http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kategorie:Sozialwissenschaftliche_Erhebung die in dieser Kategorie enthaltenen Einzelerhebungen/Studien hier mit maschinenlesbaren Informationen versehen und somit vergleichbar machen. Muss ich nun irgendwie Felder für solche Metadaten hinzufügen? Wie mache ich das ggf.?
  • Bei mir erscheint jetzt z.B. auf der Seite http://de.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1193625 ohnehin keinerlei Bearbeiten-Knopf. Liegts an meinem Browser, oder wie geht man hier vor? --Zulu55data (talk) 12:57, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi, sorry but I don't understand German language, and Google Translate don't help much. I removed item, which you did, because it was a duplicate. --Stryn (talk) 13:08, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah ok, your welcome message was displayed in german, that was confusing (maybe your welcome-messege should include this hint :-)). All right, so the message said I can ask you newbee-questions:

  • As far as I understand your change says that "Empirische Sozialforschung" (empirical social research (as an article)) is a synomyn/dublicate of "Sozialwissenschaftliche Erhebung" (social science study). Thats wrong (at least in german).
  • maybe I missunderstand the goal of the project. I intended to create an element analogue to http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kategorie:Sozialwissenschaftliche_Erhebung , which is a category for social science studies. And then I wanted to give each object of this category comparable, machine-readable metadata: field time of the study, number of participants and so on. Given this is according to the aim of this project: How do I add such "metadata" elements/fields?
  • I have read the FAQ, but still I do not find any edit button on the whole page of the element. So how do I edit the element? And how do I add new metadata items? (or is it at the moment only possible to make interwiki links and nothing else? Then the Information at http://de.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Einf%C3%BChrung "In der zweiten Phase (Infoboxen) sollen Daten erfasst werden, die in Infoboxen präsentiert werden. Ziel ist es, dass Infoboxen künftig mit Daten aus Wikidata befüllt werden können. Inbetriebnahme voraussichtlich Mitte Januar 2013." is missleading, as today is the 15th of january.

Greetings and thank you --Zulu55data (talk) 13:51, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You see welcome message in German, because it's your language. If you change your language to English, then you can see welcome message also in English. You can't add any elements or other things yet, currently you can add only items, where is labels, descriptions and aliases. You can't add redirects to Wikidata. "Sozialwissenschaftliche Erhebung" is redirect in de-wiki. --Stryn (talk) 14:19, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, that helps me a lot! Greetings --Zulu55data (talk) 14:31, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

re: Disambiguation[edit]

Hi! But the English name of the article is Cartoon Network (Nordic). --Ákos9702 (talk) 12:48, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but It does not mean anything in Wikidata. As stated in Help:Label: When an article title includes disambiguation in it, either by placing it after a comma or by placing it in parenthesis, the disambiguation should be left out. Disambiguation information should instead be placed in the description field. And channels official name is just Cartoon Network, not Cartoon Network (Nordic). --Stryn (talk) 12:53, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

    • New features and bugfixes on Wikidata are planned to be deployed on Monday (Feb 18). This should among other things include:
      • Showing useful diffs for edits of claims (they’re currently empty)
      • Automatic comments for editing of claims (there are currently none)
      • Ability to add items to claims by their ID

Wikidata weekly summary #50[edit]

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Development
    • Rolled out new code on wikidata.org. The new stuff you probably care about is:
      • Improved references. They can now have multiple lines. This should make references much more useful. You can now have one reference with for example values for each of the properties "book", "author", "page" to describe one source.
      • Fixed the prev/next links in diff view (bugzilla:45821)
      • d:Special:EntitiesWithoutLabel now lets you filter by language and entity type
    • Widget to add language links on the Wikipedias directly: added setting to enable/disable it per wiki and made it available for logged-in users only
    • Widget to add language links on the Wikipedias directly: improved layout / size
    • Made it so that the “edit links” link on Wikipedia is also shown when the corresponding item only has a link to this one language and no other languages
    • Submitted improved Apache config patch to make wikidata.org always redirect to www.wikidata.org, which is awaiting code review and deployment.
    • Improved the script that is responsible for taking Wikidata changes to the Wikipedias
    • Added a few ways to better debug the script responsible for taking Wikidata changes to the Wikipedias. This should help with investigating why some changes take way to long to show up on the Wikipedias.
    • Started work on automatically adding edited items to the user’s watchlist (according to preferences)
    • Finished script for rebuilding search keys, so we can finally get case insensitive matches in a lot of places
    • Support for multi-line references in diff view
    • Selenium tests for inclusion syntax
    • Improved parser function (that will be used to access Wikidata data on the Wikipedias) to accept property ID or label
    • Increased isolation of data model component to increase clarity and visibility of bad dependencies
    • Worked on schema access in the SQLStore (of the query component)
  • Discussions/Press
  • Events
    • 3rd Media Web Symposium 2013
    • Wikidata trifft Archäologie
    • SMWCon Spring NYC
  • Other Noteworthy Stuff
  • Did you know?
    • When you edit a statement there is a little wheel in front of the text field. This lets you choose between “custom value”, “unknown value” and “no value”. “No value” means that we know that the given property has no value, e.g. Elizabeth I of England had no spouse. “Unknown value” means that the property has a value, but it is unknown which one -- e.g. Pope Linus most certainly had a year of birth, but it is unknown to us.

    • We’re currently carefully monitoring performance after the deployment of phase 2 on the first 11 Wikipedias. There seem to be a few small issues. As soon as they are resolved we'll deploy on English Wikipedia. All other Wikipedias are planned to follow very soon after that.
    • Bye and a big thank you to Anja, Silke, Jens and John who are leaving the development team at the end of the month and will work on other cool things. You’ll be missed!
    • Ever had any doubt about the possibilities of Wikidata? Talk to Wiri!
    • We worked on reducing the time it takes for Wikidata edits to show up in the Wikipedias and made some progress. Daniel posted an analysis
    • We started running a script on the database in order to make search on Wikidata case-insensitive. This should be finished in a few days and then search should be more useful.
    • In addition to the above we have rolled out a new search box that suggests items. This should also make finding things on Wikidata a lot easier for you.
    • We’re making some progress with Internet Explorer 8 support but there are a lot of issues with it (some outside our control). It’s unclear at the moment how much we can improve it still without spending an unjustified amount of time on it. You can follow the progress at bugzilla:44228
    • Edits are now auto-confirmed for users with more than 50 edits and account age 4 days: bugzilla:46461
    • Do you need old-style interwiki links for a sister project for example? This is for you
    • The Wikimedia Foundation applied as a mentoring organisation for Google Summer of Code again. We have proposed some Wikidata projects for students to take up if the Foundation is accepted again. At least 2 other organisations that applied also propose Wikidata ideas. More details on that once we know which organisations are accepted.
    • Denny hacked together a tree of life based on data from Wikidata
    • Wikidata was added to wikipulse
    • A template to retrieve data from Wikidata if no local value is set
  • Did you know?
  • Open Tasks for You
    • See note at the end of this weekly summary
    • Help test qualifiers (m:Wikidata/Notes/Data model primer#Qualifiers - see also example statements there) on the test wiki so we can roll it out with the next release
    • Did you file a bug report for Wikidata or did someone else do it for you? Please take a minute to check if it is still valid. (Thanks for filing it btw!)
    • Add some missing descriptions to those items with the same label?
    • Hack on one of these

Could I have 2 mins of your time? As I’ll be working on some other projects for Wikimedia Germany as well from now on the time I can spend on Wikidata will be reduced. This means I’ll have to figure out what is useful to spend time on. If you’re reading this could you let me know for example on this discussion page? Also if you have ideas how to improve the weekly summaries please post them. --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk)

Wikidata weekly summary #52[edit]

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Development
    • The first year is over. Thank you everyone for being amazing and helping to build Wikidata and making it more than we could possibly have hoped for already. <3
    • Put a lot of work into improved support for Internet Explorer 8
    • Worked on improving recent changes code in client
    • Finished valueview refactoring. Created new extension “ValueView”
    • Implemented string formatter
  • Discussions/Press
  • Events
    • upcoming: GLAM-Wiki 2013
  • Other Noteworthy Stuff
    • Deployment of phase 2 on English Wikipedia is currently planned for April 8. The remaining Wikipedias are scheduled for April 10. As usual this might change if we run into problems along the way.
    • There is now a page showing the current lag for changes propagating to the Wikipedias so they can show up in watchlists and recent changes for example. This should ideally be in the range of a few minutes. Right now it is higher because of some abnormally high bot activity but decreasing. Should be down to a few minutes soon.
    • There’s now a badge you can add to Wikipedia articles to indicate there is data about it on Wikidata
    • We hit Q10000000
    • A Wikidata item in the wild ;-)
  • Did you know?
  • Open Tasks for You

Based on feedback for last week’s call for comments we will continue this newsletter. However more community help will be needed. From now on they’ll be drafted at d:Wikidata:Status updates/Next and your help is very welcome.

Q10715753[edit]

I had no idea about existence of Q1667931 (Internal Control)  – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yealink (talk • contribs).

Merged and deleted. You can merge those also itself, see Help:Merge and then request deletion at WD:RFD. --Stryn (talk) 13:14, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

question[edit]

Hi best Stryn!
do you know why this special page doen's exist?PS:I want to import interwikilinks from other wikis (and update links on pages) but can't do it because the "import wikilinks"-button is missing.D'u knwo why?--Thanks and Regards--George Animal (talk) 20:12, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I don't know why the special page doesn't exist, not even at Wikipedia. Do you have slurpInterwiki gadget turned on? --Stryn (talk) 20:16, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, just turned slurpinterwiki on.I am so stupid (have forgooten it) :)--Thanks--George Animal (talk)

Misrepresentation of proposals[edit]

Hi, this edit made by you mi-represented a proposal as a guideline. Please refrain from doing so in the future. --  Docu  at 19:13, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So, btw we should handle it already like a guideline, although it's not yet accepted. We don't have any rules to remove "category"-prefix. Regards, --Stryn (talk) 11:58, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidata weekly summary #53[edit]

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Development
    • Got some external professional review of our code and architecture and started working on their feedback
    • Worked on reducing the dispatch lag (the time it takes for changes on Wikidata to be sent to the Wikipedias for display in watchlist, recent changes and to purge affected pages)
    • Worked on using Redis for job queue to improve the lag situation even further
    • Created new Wikibase Query extension for phase 3 functionality
    • Autocomments & Autosummaries for SetClaim module
    • Worked on the GeoCoordinate parser
  • Events/Press
    • right now: GLAM-WIKI 2013
  • Discussions
  • Other Noteworthy Stuff
    • Deployment of phase 2 on the remaining Wikipedias was delayed because of a high lag of changes being propagated to the Wikipedias. The lag has been reduced considerably now and is going down even more. The new date for deployment will not be next week because there are other large changes on Wikimedia infrastructure scheduled that we do not want to interfere with. It will hopefully happen very soon after that though.
    • Next code update on wikidata.org is planned for Wednesday. This should include qualifiers and bugfixes.
    • There will probably be a short outage/read-only for wikidata.org on Tuesday (database is being switched to MariaDB)
    • If you're a student and interested in coding on Wikidata consider applying for Google Summer of Code.
    • There is a new user right: property creators
    • There is now a page to request deletion of a property
    • We now have Bureaucrats
    • Reasonator was improved and extended (1 2)
  • Open Tasks for You

Based on feedback for last week’s call for comments we will continue this newsletter. However more community help will be needed. From now on they’ll be drafted at d:Wikidata:Status updates/Next and your help is very welcome.

Property:P421[edit]

Hi,

The above property is now available and can be used on items. I noticed you first proposed its creation. --  Docu  at 13:16, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for notifying. --Stryn (talk) 13:18, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

1,2,3-triklooribentseenin interwikit[edit]

Hei! Asiani koskee fi:1,2,3-triklooribentseenin interwikitystä. Sivu Q1917053 sisältää linkin hollanninkielisen Wikipedian aihetta vastaavaan artikkeliin. Mutta suomenkieliseen artikkeliin ei voi lisätä linkkiä tuolle sivulle, koska on olemassa Q3824402. Tuo Q3824402 pitää ehkä poistaa, tai ainakin tuo linkki poistaa sieltä, jotta saataisiin interwikit kohdalleen. --MiPe (talk) 17:27, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. Siirsin fi-wiki-linkin sivuun Q1917053, ja poistin isompinumeroisen kaksoiskappaleena. --Stryn (talk) 17:54, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidata weekly summary #54[edit]

  • Development
    • Dispatch lag is now down to 0 so changes should show up very quickly on the Wikipedias in watchlists and recent changes

    • Fixed weird blocked-user/protected-page handling in UI (bugzilla:45140)
    • Final meetings for the external professional review of our code and architecture. They were quite happy with the quality of the codebase and gave useful tips for improvements
    • Worked on automatic summaries for editing claims
    • Investigation of different JavaScript frameworks dealing with date and time
    • Worked on using Redis and the job queue for change notifications to clients
