Motivation

[edit]

English-Czech-German language encyclopedia about Roma culture and history, extremely important resource. By changing the language code at the end of the link, the formatter can be used for all three languages. Sadly I could only find the URL of the xml articles without the main frame of the website, please, if you know how to include it, fix the links.

Discussion

[edit]
@UWashPrincipalCataloger: The IDs are the same for all the languages and can be accessed by using a different formatters. I have added those to the property, I think in these cases we shouldn't have multiple properties. --Adam Harangozó (talk) 10:49, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Should we change the property label and description then? How does having the other formatters work if a user wants to get the German version of an article from a Wikidata item? How does Wikidata know which formatter to use? UWashPrincipalCataloger (talk) 17:20, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
